Midsummer participates in groundbreaking Australian research project to reach 30 percent efficiency in tandem solar cells [Stockholm, Sweden, and Sydney, Australia, April 17, 2023.] Swedish solar energy company Midsummer has been selected to be part of a research team aiming to reach 30 percent efficiency in Si/CIGS tandem solar cells. The project, which is led by the University of New South Wales in Sydney, Australia, also includes world’s leading solar panel manufacturers and has been awarded funding of AUD $3.08m from Australian Renewable Energy Agency (ARENA) with total project budget of AUD $11.55m [USD 8.21m;EUR 7.55m]. The University of New South Wales (UNSW) will lead the tandem solar cell project, with the most cash investment funded by ARENA. A significant part of the research will be carried out on the Midsummer UNO research machine for the production of thin film solar cells that the university previously purchased from Midsummer. The objective of the project is to produce a highly efficient and stable tandem solar cell with already commercialized technologies. The project's goal is to achieve over 30 percent efficiency. Present mass-produced silicon panels have an efficiency of around 20 percent and thin film panels like CIGS (copper, indium, gallium, selenide and/or sulphur) slightly lower. By combining the technologies in so-called tandem solar cells, it is theoretically possible to reach a much higher efficiency (which is measured as a percentage according to the proportion of photons that are converted into electricity). In tandem solar cells, different semiconductor materials are combined in one device, each of which absorbs different areas of the solar spectrum. The result is more efficient solar cells. Leading research institute in solar energy The UNSW School of Photovoltaic and Renewable Energy Engineering is one of the leading solar research institutes in the world. UNSW Professor Xiaojing Hao, who heads the project, comments: “We acknowledge the strong support from ARENA. By working closely with our project partners, world-leading chalcogenide and Si PV researchers and manufacturers, this project will provide next-generation, high-performance, durable and cost-effective tandem cells that can be rapidly scaled up." "Midsummer's system an obvious choice" “A tandem solar cell with silicon + chalcogenide has the best conditions for rapid commercialization as they are two mature, stable and proven technologies. As Midsummer's DUO system already today uses the same solar cell size as silicon solar cells, it would be the obvious production tool choice when the world's largest solar panels manufacturers want to commercialize tandem solar cells on a large scale”, said Midsummer's CEO Sven Lindström. Silicon-based tandem solar cells are seen as the main track to commercialize solar panels with over 30 percent efficiency. High-bandgap CIGS cells, which can be manufactured on Midsummer's machines, have demonstrated among the highest efficiencies for potential peak cells to combine with silicon and have the advantage of a very long lifetime as well as already proven scalability in mass production.

Produktion beginnt also "later this year". Sehr konkret.

!Midsummer receives grant payment from Invitalia of 6.4 million euros! [Stockholm, Sweden, and Puglia, Italy, April 11, 2022.] Swedish solar energy leader Midsummer has received a grant payment of EUR 6.4m (SEK 73.4m) from the Italian investment authority Invitalia for the establishment of a factory for the production of thin film solar cells in Bari, Italy. This is a first instalment of the agreement concluded between the parties, which will give Midsummer EUR 22m in total in the form of grants to start production in what will be Europe's largest factory for the production of thin film solar cells. In February, Midsummer shipped three DUO machines for the production of thin film solar cells to its subsidiary Midsummer Italia in Bari. Thus, a total of five DUO machines have been installed in Bari, and the conditions met according to the agreement between the parties for a first payment from the state investment authority Invitalia. The machines are manufactured in Järfälla, Sweden. After a recent on-site inspection at the factory, Invitalia is fully satisfied with the installations and payment has now been made to Midsummer Italia in the amount of 6.4 million euros. In addition, a smaller establishment grant will shortly be paid out from the Italian region of Puglia, where Bari is the capital. According to the final terms of Midsummer's agreement with Italy's state investment authority Invitalia, Midsummer Italia will receive a total of approximately 22 million euros (just over SEK 240 million) in direct support in the form of grants to start production. The start of production in Italy is expected to take place later this year. At full operation, the factory can produce 50 MW of solar cells per year, making it the largest of its kind in Europe. Invitalia is a state institution for investment and economic development, owned by the Italian Ministry of Finance. Invitalia strives to increase Italy's economic growth and focuses on strategic sectors for development and employment. Renewable energy has been identified as an important sector.

🥳🥳

Wind dreht sich langsam

Bin auf die HV gespannt

Pleite sind die nicht, aber Newsflow ist schrecklich!!!!!

LOL was für Looser. Aber Posten doch jeden Tag bei LinkedIn

Sieht danach aus. Leider

Pleite??

Alte Absichtserklärungen helfen hier auch nicht mehr, die sind nicht mehr wert als das Papier auf dem sie gedruckt sind.

MB produziert 800MW jährlich und die fahren erst hoch..

2MW produktionskapazität für 1 jahr?😂

Ja

Ist die Meldung nicht Monate alt?

Mittsommer unterzeichnet vier neue Absichtserklärungen für die Lieferung von zusätzlichen 224 MW an Solarmodulen Midsummer AB aus Järfälla in der Nähe von Stockholm, Schweden, ein Anbieter von schlüsselfertigen Produktionslinien sowie flexiblen, leichten Kupfer-Indium-Gallium-Diselenid (CIGS)-Dünnschicht-Solarmodulen für die gebäudeintegrierte Photovoltaik (BIPV) – hat neue Absichtserklärungen (LOI) mit vier schwedischen und internationalen Dachmaterialherstellern, Hausherstellern und Solarzelleninstallateuren für den Vorverkauf von 224 MW Solarmodulen unterzeichnet. Zuvor, am 5. November, gab Midsummer die Unterzeichnung von Absichtserklärungen mit sechs schwedischen und internationalen Branchenakteuren für insgesamt 107 MW an Solarmodulen bekannt. Damit steigt die Zahl der Abnahmeverträge im November auf zehn für insgesamt 331 MW Solarmodule. Zusammen mit den bereits angekündigten Verträgen mit drei italienischen Dach- und Bauunternehmen für 15 MW pro Jahr für fünf Jahre (insgesamt 75 MW) beträgt die kumulative Anzahl der Abnahmeverträge 13 mit einem Gesamtvolumen von mehr als 400 MW an Solarmodulen. "Viele große Branchenakteure in ganz Europa stehen Schlange für unsere Produkte, da sie einen großen Markt für unsere diskreten und nachhaltigen Dünnschichtmodule sehen", sagt CEO Sven Lindström. "Es ist unsere festgelegte Strategie, diese Abnahmeverträge abzuschließen, um sicherzustellen, dass unsere Produkte parallel zu unserem Ausbau unserer Produktionskapazitäten verkauft werden." Die unterzeichneten Absichtserklärungen entsprechen 406 MW an Solarmodulen, die in den kommenden 3-6 Jahren geliefert werden sollen, verglichen mit der jährlichen Produktionskapazität des Unternehmens von 2 MW in der bestehenden schwedischen Fabrik und 50 MW in der italienischen Fabrik in Bari (die 2023 in Produktion gehen soll).
