PV manufacturing equipment provider Meyer Burger has won an order for 600MW of Heterojunction and SmartWire tools.

Driving p- and n-type solar cell manufacturing beyond current limitations was a key topic at PV CellTech last week. We caught up with the CTO of leading PV equipment supplier Meyer Burger, Dr. Gunter Erfurt, during the conference, to discuss just how fast the industry is moving.

Dieter Manz, the founder and CEO of tool maker Manz, will step aside taking a role on the company’s supervisory board.
