摘要
BP Solar started manufacturing small-area, single-junction amorphous silicon solar cells for consumer applications in 1984, began producing 1 ft(2) (similar to0.09 m(2)) single-junction modules for terrestrial applications in 1986 and initiated the production of 8.6ft(2) (similar to0.77 m(2)) tandem modules for both remote and building-integrated applications in 1997. Over the last few years, the technical and manufacturing personnel at the BP Solar TF1 plant in Toano, Virginia have made tremendous progress in ramping tip the plant to where it is non, producing amorphous silicon tandem modules with electrical yields in excess of 95% and at a run rate of more that? 7 MWp per year.
