SPI Production Process
Silicon feedstock material is cast into ingots that are then sliced into silicon bricks
Bricks are sliced into 200μm wafers
Wafers are chemically etched, coated with an anti- reflective material, printed, and processed into solar cells
SPI can produce cells with efficiencies of up to 16%
SPI can produce a broad range of modules of up to 280 watts
Module features include:
Heavy duty, anodized aluminum panel frames
