NSP noted that the facility had been designed under energy saving concept and has won LEED-NC (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design – New Construction) from the U.S. Green Building Council.

NSP has consolidated its high-efficiency manufacturing operations in Hsinchu Science Park and Tainan Technology Industrial Park as part of plans to migrate all production to monocrystalline PERC (Passivated Emitter Rear Cell) technology and a pilot line for IBC cell development. 

DelSolar was merged with NSP in 2013, during a period of overcapacity and consolidation of PV manufacturers.
