Despite the current upheaval in world financial markets, OPV continues to gain in economic importance and make steady technical progress. Various OPV technologies are being developed in industrial and academic research cooperatives and project-based partnerships. At this time, OPV is well on its way to broad commercialization, as first products are available on consumer markets. Current trends and the latest developments in this field will be on display at LOPE-C in Frankfurt, Germany from May 31 - June 2, 2010.
A commercial agreement was signed between Advanced Energy Industries and SunEdison. This was announced by Advanced Energy Industries. SunEdison is a leading provider of solar energy services.

Oerlikon Solar has selected Intergraph SmartPlant 3D and P&ID engineering software to increase the production of thin film silicon solar modules in a cost-effective manner. The P&ID engineering software and the Intergraph SmartPlant 3D has been selected in order to speed up the completion of the plant and to bring about an increase in the productivity rate. Oerlikon Solar will utilize these two softwares to produce a large quantity of thin film silicon solar modules.
To mark the completion of steel-frame construction, the “Topping out” ceremony was celebrated at the University Medical Center of Princeton at Plainsboro (UMPCPP). The building is being constructed to replace the University Medical Center of Princeton. The “topping out” ceremony is celebrated as a tradition by the steelworkers, and to symbolize good luck, a steel beam with an evergreen tree is raised and fixed at the highest point of the structure.
Canadian Solar announced on 3 December, 2009 that it has planned to start with the site selection and approval process in order to develop a 200 megawatt module manufacturing facility in Ontario. Canadian Solar supplies solar farm, solar modules for commercial and residential markets, solar cells, turnkey solutions and custom-designed solar application products. Decisions about the selected site, its size and cost are expected to be finalized in the first quarter of the year 2010. FIT applications have been submitted to Ontario Power Authority, and Canadian Solar has already started to receive attention from customers who are interested in buying solar systems from Ontario Solar.
The LEDPIR18W solar floodlight can be installed on poles or walls. Other features in the solar floodlight system are a solid state charge controller and sealed battery unit. The solar floodlight is available as a ready to be installed unit.
The Sol Shed does not need any foundation for installation and is built on treated skids. Hence, this solar electric generating station can be moved anywhere around the house or transported when the residents move away. If needed, this self contained power system can be bolted to the foundation permanently. This solar generating station is completely insulated as it is made of structurally insulated panels. Besides the function of a solar electric power system, the Sol Shed can also be used as a storage space.
The Kyocera SC series submersible solar pumps are DC powered and designed for supplying water to remote areas. They function at 30V to 120V on 140W to 1,000W DC. These solar pumps are run using solar modules or batteries.
The Robison BL40D solar water pump creates 85 pounds of pressure that facilitates its usage in homes or remote cabins. This solar water pump can pump water from ponds or creeks. The Robison BL40D solar water pump system consists of components such as solar modules, wiring harness and aluminum mounting hardware.
Recently, Solar Energy Initiatives has signed a Letter of Intent to undertake a $1.7 million turn-key solar project, based on which Solar Energy Initiatives will supply solar power to Gainesville Regional Utilities. Solar Energy Initiatives sell renewable energy technologies such as solar thermal and photovoltaic technologies to the world, thus helps to reduce the dependence on fossil fuels. This turn-key project commences immediately and it is scheduled for completion by January 2010.
