Nominations for Solar Awards Closing Soon

Photovoltaics International, a leading source for technical manufacturing information and news concerning the solar industry, has partnered with the International Photovoltaic Equipment Association, PV Group, and Sun & Wind Energy among others to introduce the International Solar Technology Awards, a new set of industry awards recognizing significant achievements in the production of solar technology.

Nominations close on April 15 and winners will be honored at the awards ceremony at Intersolar in Munich on May 28, 2009.

Unlike current industry awards that focus primarily on early stage solar technologies, the International Solar Technology Awards are designed to put the spotlight on companies spanning the manufacturing supply chain from raw materials to modules. Judges from Q-Cells, Suntech, Deutsche Solar, Moser Baer, Fraunhofer ISE and others will select award recipients on their efficiency advancements, improved design and processes. The eight International Solar Technology Award categories are:

  • Best Technical Product for Module Assembly
  • Best Technical Product for Thin-Film Module Manufacturing
  • Best Process Technology for c-Si Cell Manufacturing Lines
  • Best Technology for Silicon Feedstock and Wafer Processes
  • Best New Manufacturing Facility for Cells, Modules, Equipment and BOS Components
  • Best Region for Manufacturing Solar Technologies
  • Green Manufacturing Award
  • Industry Choice Award

"We created the International Solar Technology Awards to serve as a catalyst for new business opportunities through enhanced industry visibility," said David Owen, Managing Director of Photovoltaics International. "By bringing together some of the most prestigious names in the solar space, we strive to provide the solar manufacturing industry with an unbiased, well respected recognition to showcase industry leaders."
