During the morning has been held "the PV Manufacturing Technology Food Chain" session. Please find below the presentations of the panellists. On the afternoon the executive panel session was held regarding "The Challenges and Opportunities in Photovoltaic Mass-Production" about what needs to be done to bisect the photovoltaic manufacturing cost. The following panellists expressed themselves on their vision of PV. The conference was moderated by Michel Viaud, (EPIA Secretary General) :
This event took place on April 13th at SEMICON(r) Europa 2005 in Munich. This platform provided an excellent opportunity to showcase Photovoltaic competence for stakeholders and permitted to exploit synergies with other semiconductor manufacturing technologies. |
