T-Solar SA in Ourense, Galicia, Spain, has awarded an exclusive contract to Linde Nippon Sanso to supply high-purity gases to its thin-film solar cell manufacturing plant – the first in Spain.
Under the agreement, Linde Nippon Sanso will provide T-Solar with turnkey installation of the plant's bulk and special gases supply systems, along with ongoing delivery of the gases essential to making thin-film solar cells. These gases include large volumes of silane and hydrogen gas, which are used to deposit silicon light absorber layers on large-area sheets of glass.
