Sanyo Electric Co. will substantially increase the production capacity of solar cells
Sanyo Electric Co., Ltd. recently announced that the press release, the company decided to invest 7,000,000 U.S. dollars in fiscal year 2008 will be in Monterrey, Mexico plant to increase output of solar cells to reach 2.5 times the current level of 50MW.
The statement said that Mexico Monterrey plant will be mainly engaged in the world's highest conversion efficiency of solar cells HIT block template for the production of the current annual output to 20MW. Sanyo Electric was to raise the plant's production capacity, mainly to the rapid expansion of the North American sony PCGA-BP71 battery , market to meet the market demand, but also the company's further expansion in the global solar energy business plan.
At present, Sanyo Electric is developing plans to increase production, the 2010 fiscal year will be the world's HIT solar cell production capacity to more than 600MW, which is equivalent to the current production capacity of more than double.

HIT solar cells are developed by Sanyo Electric Co., Ltd. has a unique structure of the solar cell, using a crystal silicon and amorphous silicon thin film plate made of hybrid solar cells. Such solar cells at a prototype stage and reached 22% of the photoelectric conversion efficiency, creating more than 100 square centimeters practical level size of HIT photoelectric conversion efficiency of solar cells a world record
