Spire Corp., a global solar company providing turnkey solar factories and capital equipment to manufacture photovoltaic modules and cells worldwide, has won a contract to provide certain elements of the Spi-Line 25TF turnkey factory to produce 25 MW of amorphous thin-film modules to XsunX in Portland, Ore.
This will be XsunX's first factory in full production of its thin-film technology.
Spire's turnkey line includes all of the process tools and services to create finished modules from the output of the deposition system. Substrates require testing for deposition feedback, specialized busing to connect the amorphous silicon cells in addition to the traditional lamination, framing and final simulation, the company notes.
