Tool Order: Midsummer receives follow-on flexible CIGS equipment order
Sweden-based flexible CIGS thin film solar cell equipment supplier Midsummer has received a follow-on order from an undisclosed customer.
Sweden-based flexible CIGS thin film solar cell equipment supplier Midsummer has received a follow-on order from an undisclosed customer.
Midsummer said that it would be supplying a further two of its compact ‘DUO’ thin film solar cell manufacturing systems to the customer, due to demand for flexible CIGS modules.
“Our DUO system is now the most widely spread manufacturing tool for flexible CIGS solar cells in the world”, said Sven Lindström, CEO, Midsummer AB.
The equipment supplier is expected to ship the systems before the end of 2017.
Understanding bifacial’s true potential: technology innovation and technical bankability of bifacial
The deployment of bifacial PV technology is growing rapidly. It has proven to be the most effective solution to reduce levelised energy costs (LCOE) and increase the Investment Rate of Return (IRR) of PV systems, offering substantially improved energy yield compared to the use of standard mono-facial modules. Even though the concept is not new, it has been a niche technology for many years with uncertainties in predicting performance and optimizing installations. Today, bifacial technology is becoming mainstream, with capacity available at the multi-gigawatt scale and with corresponding global deployment of project pipelines. Join this webinar, presented by Andrea Viaro, as he discusses the award-winning Swan bifacial module with transparent backsheet from DuPont, its features, benefits and differences vs. standard glass-glass modules. Jinko Solar’s new bifacial technology innovations will also be highlighted, specifically covering profitability in deployment at utility-scale PV power plants. Andrea will be joined by Dr.Lars Podlowski who will give a comprehensive introduction to all aspects of bifacial PV technology, with a special focus on benefits and risks industry buyers and investors should pay attention to.
