Hybrid TFPV cell manufacturer XsunX has entered into an agreement with Taiwanese company Telecomps Technology Corp., Ltd. (Telecomps) that will see the latter provide OEM module assembly services for XsunX’s CIGSolar technology. Telecomps will work with the thin-film manufacturer to develop back-end CIGSolar solar module assembly capabilities, which is likely to aid XsunX in its Chinese marketing efforts.
“We have targeted the silicon module manufacturing industry as a major customer segment and, with the assistance of Telecomps providing competitive OEM module assembly, we are positioning XsunX customers for success as they compete in the US$18 billion silicon solar cell industry”, commented Joseph Grimes (pictured), XsunX’s president and COO. “In addition to Telecomps a number of other manufacturers are now seriously exploring the use of our CIGSolar technology as a robust and less expensive alternative to silicon.”
