Electricity generation using solar energy has the greatest potential of all renewable sources to meet their global energy requirements. The manufacture of Photovoltaic (PV) Solar Cells is an expensive business that relies heavily on the use of water, vacuum pumps and high Global Warming Potential (GWP) chemicals; it is also very labour intensive. The use of these resources comes with significant financial and environmental cost. Nines Photovoltaics has developed new technology and will launch a product range, targeting PV solar cell 80 manufacturers worldwide. These products address the issues detailed above and aim to cause a paradigm shift in the manufacturing process. The Nines' processing tools are designed to work at atmospheric pressure, in a dry environment without the use of greenhouse gasses; in addition they will facilitate the move to high volume inline production and enable the use of cheaper thin wafers and other advanced cell concepts. The Nines’ offering will serve to significantly reduce the cost per watt of PV electricity generation whilst also improving the scalability and sustainability of manufacturing for the industry as a whole.
