Kyocera Updates

Kyocera fully converted to 180 micrometer solar wafer thickness

Key Points:

1. Fully converted to 180 mm, industry average is 200-260 mm. This means they need less silicon in their cells.
2. They have suppliers lined up so they can double production by 2011.
3. In 2010, they will have in mass production a cell with 18.5 efficiency.
