Major solar PV manufacturers have announced a flurry of new module manufacturing capacity this year -- all of it outside of China. GTM Research, which today released the Global PV Manufacturing Attractiveness Index 2015 report, or PVMAX, has ranked the Advances in ultrathin films have made solar panels and semiconductor devices more efficient and less costly, and researchers say they've found a way to manufacture the films more easily, too. Advances in ultrathin films have made solar panels and SolarCity is building one of the world's largest solar panel production plants in Buffalo, N.Y. When completed next year, it is expected to manufacture enough solar panels to produce one gigawatt (1 billion watts) of power within its first two years. World-class Solar Module Manufacturers, with 1.4GW solar panel manufacturing capabilities, announces that it has received Brazil's National Institute of Metrology, Quality and Technology (Inmetro) certification for photovoltaic (PV) systems, a prerequisite TEMPE, Ariz. — First Solar Inc., a solar panel maker whose sole domestic manufacturing is in Perrysburg Township, on Thursday reported a preliminary third quarter profit of $346.2 million, or $3.38 a share, up from $88.4 million, or 87 cents a share In 2015 solar cell manufacturer Sino-American Silicon Products Inc. (SAS) with its subsidiary Sunrise Global Solar Energy Co. Ltd. (Sunrise) has placed orders to InnoLas Solutions GmbH (InnoLas) for a total of five additional ILS-TT high throughput laser .

(TNS) -- Dreams that solar manufacturing might take root in San Diego have faded as French solar company Soitec shuttered its Rancho Bernardo assembly line and seeks to sell off related assets, including permits for two local solar farms that never came to JA Solar (JASO-3.1%) has opened a solar cell manufacturing plant in Penang, Malaysia with a capacity of 40MW/year. The cells will be used to manufacture JA modules in non-Chinese markets, and thereby help the company sidestep tariffs/quotas on Chinese-made starting with solar panel manufacturing in China and then branching out to also become a major project developer. It too was helped along by Ontario’s programs. Michael G. Potter, chief financial officer at Canadian Solar, said the subsidies allowed the (Nanowerk News) Advances in ultrathin films have made solar panels and semiconductor devices more efficient and less costly, and researchers at the Department of Energy's Oak Ridge National Laboratory say they've found a way to manufacture the films more .
