Accelerating R&D in semiconductors and cleantech
It’s over, folks.
The sad, inevitable results of the VC bubble and solar shakeout
Searching for an Asian suitor
A restart with CIGS instead of CdTe for a vintage solar startup. Jim Woolsey joins the Board.
The twilight of standalone CIGS solar startups
A once-heralded solar startup succumbs to the realities of the market and looks for alternatives.
We’re seeing record-setting PV performance across all materials systems, from CIGS to OSCs to CdTe to c-Si to CPV to CIS to GaAs. How important are these milestones?
“Cadmium telluride is still in its infancy, and First Solar has just scratched the surface.”
The CIGS player with the biggest photovoltaic VC round of 2011 gets another $25 million.
Global Solar, now defunct, was once a CIGS manufacturer in full-scale production on a flexible substrate.
No comment on cost per watt, efficiency, or 2012 shipment volume
The complaint from Solyndra sees a conspiracy “to fix prices at predatory levels.”
Commenter “electricaldisobedience” lets us know his feelings about SoloPower and its flexible thin-film CIGS solar panels.
