Italian National Electric Power Group of green energy companies, most recently with the Japanese company Sharp, STMicroelectronics, has signed an agreement to Sicily in the south to build the largest solar photovoltaic Italy Base board manufacturing. xps m140
The base of the plant will be built in the southern Sicilian province of Catania, the main production of medium and large solar power production units for the “crossroads of three thin film solar panels.” And compared to ordinary solar panels in crystalline silicon, these groups can adapt to the working temperature of high environmental, and the silicon content is low, the cost of silicon raw materials less sensitive to price fluctuations.
The base of the production sector is expected to start operating in early 2011 with an initial annual capacity of 160 megawatts over the next few years should go to 480 MW. Draft an initial investment of 3.2 billion euros (460 million U.S. dollars) by the Italian National Electric Power Group Green Energy Co., Japan, Sharp Corporation and STMicroelectronics have formed a joint venture overseeing the construction and the operation. Under the agreement, the commodities are mainly for Europe, Africa and the Middle East market for solar energy to focus on customers in the Mediterranean region,417066-001 , using the Italian National Electricity its sales network in the Mediterranean to Italy more than 500 users and cares about quality as long as installing solar panels.
Solar energy is divided into light and thermal energy and photovoltaic power generation, which refers to the use of the interface generation semiconductor power photovoltaic photovoltaic effect of light energy directly into electricity, the key element is the solar cell.
