CSG Solar AG

In a state-of-the-art production facility located in Saxony-Anhalt, Germany, CSG Solar AG is taking up mass production of its CSG solar modules in the first half of 2006.

The company gets its name from its technology, Crystalline Silicon on Glass, in which an extremely thin layer of silicon is deposited directly onto a glass sheet suitable for mounting outdoors. Capturing the excellent and proven performance of the market dominant silicon wafer-based products in a much thinner and cost-effective form, CSG modules represent a unique alternative, unconstrained by the limit imposed by silicon feed-stock availability.

CSG Solar will quickly scale up in mid 2006 to a capacity of 10 MW and plans to reach a yearly capacity of 20 MW at the end of 2006.
