The solar manufacturing industry shifting its focus towards sustainability across the entire value of the supply chain is essential, according to the CEO of German wafer producer NexWafe.
Solar wafer producer NexWafe has secured a €30 million (US$32 million) investment to accelerate the construction of its first commercial-scale wafer plant in Bitterfeld, Germany.
The stage is set for the emergence of an ultra-low-cost PV industry based on epitaxial solar wafers and other highly scalable, high-efficiency technologies, writes Davor Sutija, CEO of NexWafe.
Solar wafer producer NexWafe has completed its Series C investment round, with proceeds earmarked for product and technology development on prototype lines in Germany.
