German-based c-Si PV module manufacturer, Solar-Fabrik has said that its production lines are at full capacity as its struggles to meet demand for its modules after a successful marketing campaign in Europe and the U.S. promoting “made in Germany”. Solar-Fabrik has recruited a further 100 workers at its Freiburg facility and added additional shifts to meet demand.
Its new state-of-the-art (130MWp) fully automated manufacturing plant (Fab 3) is on three-shifts per day (started in July, 2009) with additional week end shifts planned in order to maximize utilization and adjust capacity further to demand.
