2010 Great for the Stock Market and even better for certain Solar Stocks

The Market in 2010
Solar Stocks and Market Commentary with J Peter Lynch
Point Roberts, South Salem, New York � December 31, 2010 - Investorideas.com, a leader in cleantech stock research tools issues new solar stocks commentary from solar contributor, J. Peter Lynch.
Solar Stocks Commentary with J Peter Lynch -

2010 was certainly a year to remember. It had its ups and it had it downs, but in the end it was up an average of 13.87% (averaging the three major indexes � see table below) that is a far better than the average year and despite a constant barrage of terrible news the market continued to climb its �wall of worry�.

With everyone worrying about jobs and the economy the year seemed to be a never ending sequence of one bad set of news after the other. But if there is one think I have learned over the years is NEVER to listen to the talking heads on TV or to the hundreds of �experts� all over the internet who tell you what is going to happen tomorrow based upon what has happened today. That is silly and also, more importantly, impossible. No one can know what is going to happen or why it is going to happen, if you pay close attention you will eventually see that everyone is clearly guessing and guessing is NOT one of the tools that a successful investor employs.
The Importance of seeing �What is� verses what we think �should� be
Let me give you a totally NON logical example that will make it clear that guessing and perhaps "logical" are not really good tools for an investor. I think I can safely say that the top topics for 2010 and the ones that are on everyone's mind are: jobs, the economy, the housing crisis and the persistent recession as it drags on. So, given that background, what do you think were the top 3 market sectors in 2010 in terms of returns for investors?
Give up? Can't even guess?
Well they were:

1. Autos
2. Restaurants
3. Leisure

All of them are consumer related and we all KNOW (for sure?) that this is a terrible recession and that the economy is in bad shape and that it would be impossible for consumer related areas to do well, right?
Wrong! They not only did well they were the best 3 areas.
So what can we learn from this?
What we can learn is that an investor has to STOP thinking they KNOW what "should be" given the circumstances as the investor sees them and realize that the most important thing is NOT what you think should be but "WHAT IS". If umbrella sales are going thru the roof during a massive drought - forget about what you "know" - BUY umbrella stocks!
The Best and the Worst of 2010
Now that you know the three best areas for investors in 2010, what was the worst area for investors in 2011?
The worst area for investors in 2011 was the solar sector, specifically the PV sector that we follow closely it was down and average of 14.6% in a very good year (up 13.87% on average) for the market.
Based upon this fact, it would be terrible to invest in this area for any sane investor? Correct?
Well in general, yes. If you bought each of our solar stocks you would have been down approximately 14.6% for the year. However, if you bought the "best" of the solar stocks - our solar seven, you would have been up an average of 42.94% more than 300% better than the general market averages.

Solar Seven Selection Criteria
Back in the beginning of 2010 I explained that we were rating all of our solar stocks and that the seven strongest stocks – later named – “The Solar Seven” were the strongest stocks among the industry. My rating system is a proprietary combination of various relative strength measures, technical measures and some fundamental components.
What can we learn from this amazing performance in a terrible solar market?
What we can learn is that there are always stocks going up somewhere, even in a terrible market and if you select the “strongest” stocks in a given market segment you will, on average, do quite well. Even if, they are umbrella’s in a drought – regardless of what you “think” you know, always remember that “what is, is” and always buy the strongest stocks in a sector or market. You may not always know “why” something happens, but you will, on average, do much better than most investors and most likely better than the market.

Nanotechnology Stocks; mPhase Technologies (OTC.BB:XDSL) Continues to Position Scalable Smart Reserve Cell Technology for 2011 Federal Funding

LITTLE FALLS, NJ - December 30, 2010 (Investorideas.com Newswire) - mPhase Technologies, Inc. (OTC.BB:XDSL) announced today that it will recommence active efforts in January of 2011 to secure federal funding for its scalable smart reserve cell technology, one of the line items included in the Fiscal Year 2011 Defense Appropriations bill that was passed in the United States House of Representatives. Scalable Smart Reserve Cell Technology was listed to receive funding as part of the omnibus appropriations bill that failed to achieve a bipartisan compromise in the United States Senate in December of 2010, as part of the budget for the current 2011 fiscal year. Nevertheless, the Company is actively seeking to have such line item funding reintroduced in January of 2011, as part of early consideration in a defense appropriations bill for the 2011 fiscal year, and it is anticipated that it should be a high-priority item for the next Congress to augment to the temporary resolution that is currently funding the U.S. government.

"We are encouraged that the prior Congress has recognized the importance of this technology," said Mr. Ronald Durando, mPhase's President and Chief Executive Officer. The bill that was passed by the House of Representative in the last Congressional session is the first time Congress specifically designated funding for this type of technology. The Company continues to believe that it will be well positioned for a defense appropriations line item in the next Congress that convenes in January of 2011, given the company's leadership in the field.
The company is a leader in developing new innovative products using micro fluid dynamics, MEMS and super-hydrophobic suspension and separation of liquids on micro structures of silicon, developed through the science of nanotechnology. mPhase began using nanotechnology to develop power cells in 2004 with the Bell Labs division of Alcatel-Lucent (formerly Lucent Technologies, Inc.)
The Company has successfully delivered to the United States Army under a Phase II STTR grant a prototype of its Smart NanoBattery. "We believe that the successful delivery of a prototype of a first of its kind reserve battery designed for backup power for critical mission computer memory is vital in strategic weapons systems and sensor networks," said Durando. The company is positioned to custom tailor its Smart NanoBattery for a variety of military subsystems and critical mission commercial products. The Company is in the process of applying for new Phase I grants under both STTR and SBIR programs promulgated by the United States Department of Defense and the United States Department of Energy, as well as National Science Foundation grants.
About mPhase Technologies, Inc.
mPhase Technologies is introducing a revolutionary Smart Surface technology enabled by breakthroughs in nanotechnology, MEMS processing and microfluidics. Our Smart Surface technology has potential applications within drug delivery systems, lab on a chip analytic systems, self cleaning systems, liquid and chemical sensor systems, and filtration systems. mPhase has pioneered its first Smart Surface enabled product, the mPhase Smart NanoBattery.
In addition to the Smart Surface technology, mPhase recently introduced its first product, the mPower Emergency Illuminator, an award winning product designed by PorscheDesign Studio and sold via the mPower website: http://www.mpowertech.com.

Solar Stocks News ; NRG (NYSE:NRG) to Acquire 290-Megawatt Agua Caliente Solar Project from First Solar (Nasdaq:FSLR )

Solar Stocks News ; NRG (NYSE:NRG) to Acquire 290-Megawatt Agua Caliente Solar Project from First Solar (Nasdaq:FSLR )



Project will be the largest photovoltaic solar field in the world when completed; Enhances NRG’s growing Arizona business
PRINCETON, N.J. & TEMPE, Ariz.--(www.investorideas.com renewable energy/green newswire ) -- NRG Energy, Inc. (NYSE:NRG) and First Solar, Inc. (Nasdaq:FSLR ) announced that NRG, through its wholly owned subsidiary, NRG Solar, has agreed to acquire the 290-megawatt (MW) Agua Caliente solar project from First Solar. The project is scheduled to be completed by 2014 and has a 25-year power purchase agreement with Pacific Gas and Electric Company. When completed, Agua Caliente is expected to be the largest operational photovoltaic (PV) site in the world.


Located in Yuma County, AZ, the Agua Caliente project is expected to generate state and local tax revenues, provide wages for up to 400 construction jobs and create economic benefits for many local businesses.
“Solar power is critical to transitioning our nation to having a greater emphasis on large-scale clean energy technologies and it is going to be projects of the scale of Agua Caliente that will help us achieve this ambitious goal,” said David Crane, President and CEO of NRG Energy. “This investment significantly increases our presence in the state and benefits the residents of Arizona while providing attractive returns to NRG’s stakeholders.”


At full capacity, NRG estimates the 290 MW project will provide clean, zero-emission electricity for more than 225,000 homes. The project is expected to offset approximately 5.5 million metric tons of CO2 over 25 years, the equivalent of taking over 40,000 cars off the road annually. Agua Caliente will generate electricity with no air emissions, no waste production and no water consumption.
“Agua Caliente is representative of our mission to provide clean, affordable, sustainable solar energy, capitalizing on our advanced thin-film technology and the tremendous solar resource of Arizona,” said Rob Gillette, CEO of First Solar. “We are very pleased to further expand our relationship with NRG as the owner of Agua Caliente, the first of our multi-hundred-megawatt utility-scale projects to begin construction.”


An application has been submitted to the U.S. Department of Energy for a federal loan guarantee in connection with the financing of the project, which is expected to be one of the first in the U.S. to start construction under the program. Closing of the acquisition is contingent on receiving the federal loan guarantee. NRG plans to invest up to $800 million of equity in the project through 2014 through a potential combination of cash on hand in addition to third-party investor equity.


Situated on 2,400 acres of land between Yuma and Phoenix, AZ, the Agua Caliente project has secured all necessary permits for construction and the early construction phases have begun. First Solar has developed the project and is the engineering, procurement and construction contractor, using its advanced thin-film PV modules. First Solar will provide operations and maintenance services.


The Agua Caliente solar project is the latest in a series of clean energy advancements NRG has made in Arizona this year. In June, NRG purchased the district energy system in Phoenix, NRG Energy Center Phoenix, that produces and distributes chilled water to customers in the Phoenix central business district as well as operating and maintaining district energy/combined heat and power plants for Arizona State University and in Tucson. In September, NRG began an initiative with Kennedy Partners to develop solar arrays for Arizona schools to meet their own electricity needs while providing new teaching tools and shade for parking. NRG is also developing a 25 MW solar photovoltaic project for Tucson Electric Power to help meet the energy demands of the state with renewable energy.

“Arizona is a key area of growth for NRG where our investment is creating local jobs and building infrastructure,” said Tom Doyle, president of NRG Solar and a Phoenix resident. “It is very gratifying to be able to see the benefits of our partnerships with local schools, providing cooling and heating for local businesses and universities and developing solar fields like Agua Caliente and our project for Tucson Electric Power. This is a relationship that will benefit all Arizona residents for a very long time.”


About NRG Solar

Green Stocks; Westinghouse Solar (Nasdaq:WEST ) Fourth Quarter 2010 Update

Green  Stocks; Westinghouse Solar (Nasdaq:WEST ) Fourth Quarter 2010 Update
CAMPBELL, Calif., Dec. 15, 2010 (www.investorideas.com renewable energy/green newswire ) -- Akeena Solar, Inc. d/b/a Westinghouse Solar, (Nasdaq:WEST ), a manufacturer and distributor of solar power systems, today provided a fourth quarter 2010 business update.
On September 10, 2010 Westinghouse Solar announced it would be expanding its distribution business to include sales of its Westinghouse Solar Power Systems directly to dealers in California, and exiting its solar panel installation business. The company provided guidance on October 28 that it anticipated sequential revenue growth for its distribution business of approximately 40-50% in the fourth quarter of 2010 as compared to the third quarter.

"We are encouraged by the pace of sales in the fourth quarter and we are confident that we will see sequential revenue growth in excess of 50%," said Barry Cinnamon, CEO of Westinghouse Solar. "Our agreement with Real Goods Solar to become an authorized Westinghouse Solar installer jump-started our California distribution business as they are installing Westinghouse Solar systems in the fourth quarter on projects we transferred to them, and are selling new systems that will be installed in 2011. We continue to add new dealers both within California and in the rest of the country, and our network of installers is now over 130 independent solar dealers extending into 34 states plus Canada.

"So far, we are seeing positive signs that the distribution business should prove to be as scalable as we anticipated when we made the decision to exit the installation business. We are also continuing discussions with new strategic distribution partners to increase our top line sales, and supplier partners to reduce our costs. We continue to anticipate that our cash operating expenses for continuing operations will be approximately $1.5 -- 1.6 million in the fourth quarter. In addition, our efforts to protect our solar panel installation technology are evidenced by the latest patent we received from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Organization," concluded Cinnamon.

Cleantech Stock News; OPEL Solar Launches OPEL Solar Asia, Ltd.

Cleantech Stock News; OPEL Solar Launches OPEL Solar Asia, Ltd.

–OPEL Forges into Growing CPV Solar Market in Asia in Joint Venture with Ecotech–
-Relationship Starts with 2 Megawatt Product Order-
Shelton, CT and Toronto, ON, December 15, 2010 – ( http://www.investorideas.com/ cleantech stocks blog ) OPEL Solar, Inc. (TSX-V: OPL) (“OPEL” or “the Company”), a leading global supplier of high concentration photovoltaic (“HCPV”) solar panels and other solar products including ground-based and rooftop tracker systems, today announced the formation of OPEL Solar Asia Ltd (“OSA”) in Hong Kong. OPEL Solar, Inc. in the U.S. and Ecotech Environmental Technology Ltd (“Ecotech”) based in Hong Kong, are the two partners in the joint venture (“JV”). For OPEL this represents the beginning of a long-term goal to position OPEL to enter East Asia, developing the HCPV market. In signing the agreement, OPEL Solar’s advanced HCPV technology moves into what has been deemed the fastest growing solar market in the world with years of strong growth projections ahead.
The mission of OPEL Solar Asia Ltd. is to market OPEL HCPV products throughout East Asia. The primary country targeted for CPV market penetration is China. “With Ecotech, OPEL Solar found a well-established partner to advance our business into East Asia. In fact, according to a recent posting on New Energy World Network, China’s photovoltaic market is one of the largest in the world and has a robust growth projection,” said Frank Middleton, COO of OPEL Solar, Inc. “OPEL chose to enter this market with Ecotech because of their profound regional knowledge and client base, with the added advantage that since Ecotech is established, it serves to minimize our start-up expense,” Frank added.



The creation of OSA includes an initial purchase order for two megawatts (“MW”) of OPEL Solar’s HCPV system products both the solar modules and tracker models. This order is an example of the rising demand for HPCV systems in China. Getting more specific, Middleton continued, “These products are expected to fulfill immediate contracts Ecotech has secured within the People’s Republic of China, and it represents a multimillion dollar revenue opportunity for OPEL Solar, which results in revenue during the first year of operations of the JV.”



In addition to the initial 2MW order for OPEL Solar’s HCPV products, it is anticipated that OPEL Solar Asia will continue a vigorous ordering stream. “The establishment of OPEL Solar Asia with its anticipated order projection represents significant value growth for OPEL Solar’s stakeholders,” said Leon M. Pierhal, CEO of OPEL Solar Inc. “Such a burgeoning CPV solar market in East Asia may bring to OPEL revenues approaching $100 million over the next four to five years. The decision to pursue a joint venture strategy to enter East Asia is one of the most important decisions we have made to support the rapid growth of the Company,” Pierhal further stated other worldwide joint ventures are in various stages of negotiations for 2011.



“We believe OPEL Solar has proven technology and a good product for the CPV market in East Asia. Ecotech is honored to be OPEL Solar’s JV partner in penetrating this market. There are challenges ahead but the chance of capturing market opportunities in this region is very real. We will work hand in hand with OPEL Solar and our strategic partners and customers in China to realize these goals,” said Michael Lam, Chairman of Ecotech and Chairman & CEO of the E&K Holdings Group.

The OPEL Solar products shipped for the 2MW order will open the door for local manufacturing by OSA, as Ecotech has an established network of local manufacturers. Once the manufacturing processes attain solid efficiency, OSA will assume the full manufacturing process to install complete HCPV utility grade solar farms.

Cleantech news - Cleantech Open Announces 2010 Winners

Cleantech Open Announces Winners of 2010 National Business Competition and Global Ideas Competition


Puralytics takes the grand prize of $250K with its water purification technology. Runners up in the National Business Competition are OnChip Power and EarthClean; Mission Motors wins the 2010 Alumni Award, and BioVantage wins the 2010 National Sustainability Prize



11.23.2010– REDWOOD CITY, Calif.: The Cleantech Open today released the complete list of winners that were announced at the 2010 Cleantech Open National Awards Gala and Expo. Dubbed the "Academy Awards of Clean Technology," the event marked the grand finale of the Cleantech Open's yearlong National Business Competition, as well as the culmination of the Cleantech Open Global Ideas Competition, which included entries from the winners of national Cleantech Open competitions in 20 countries, including the United States. Hundreds attended the daylong festival of cleantech innovation and entrepreneurship in San Jose, which was attended by the movers and shakers of the fast-growing cleantech industry -contestants, alumni teams from previous years, mentors, venture capitalists, and sponsors.



2010 National Prize winner

Selected from the five regional winners of the prestigious Cleantech Open Business Competition, the National Grand Prize was awarded to Puralytics of Beaverton, Oregon. Puralytics was recognized by the judges for its development of photochemical water purification products designed for critical contaminants such as petrochemicals and pharmaceuticals. Unlike most current water purification technologies, which can create known health risks or return all of the sequestered contaminants back to the environment, Puralytics uses light (from LEDs or natural sunlight) to create processes that totally remove contaminants from the environment without any wastewater or chemicals. Initially targeting industrial and commercial facilities, the company aims to expand to provide a solution for water treatment in small communities and remote rural areas.



Mark Owen, CEO of Puralytics, said the idea for Puralytics occurred to him during a trip to Tokyo, where he noticed sunlight-activated, self-cleaning windows. "I wondered if it would be possible to take the light of the sun, and the surface area of a building, and put them in a can to purify water. This became the seed of an idea that now involves multiple wavelengths of LED light that illuminate a high-surface-area nanotechnology coating to cause five photochemical reactions that purify water of heavy metals, microorganisms, and organic chemicals."



Puralytics' technology addresses an emerging need, according to Owen, and the Cleantech Open has already opened doors for his company. "Water quality is a growing problem in our world today, and removing organic contaminants is the greatest unmet need. We are excited that the Cleantech Open committee recognizes, with us, this important business, environmental, and societal problem. This award is great validation to our team and our investors, and will help us move forward to the next level in our business. Through the Cleantech Open we've already met customers, channel partners, investors, and advisors, and this National Award has put these new networks in overdrive."



The judges also nominated two runners-up for the National Grand Prize: OnChip Power of Boston for its high-efficiency, miniaturized power-supply technology; andEarthClean of Minneapolis for its non-toxic and readily biodegradeable fire suppressant. Meanwhile, audience members used SMS voting to select the People's Choice Business Competition winner from all 18 finalists: Silicon Solar Solutions, with its large-grain, polysilicon technology that reduces the material needed to manufacture solar cells, while increasing the power they can generate.



Note to editors: interviews and presentations from several Cleantech Open startup companies are available on the Cleantech Open YouTube channel.



"We were delighted with the very high quality of entrants in this year's competitions, something that shone through at the Awards Gala," said Rex Northen, executive director of the Cleantech Open. "Judges and audience members found it extremely hard to pick a single winner from such a strong lineup. Congratulations to the winners and finalists, and many thanks to the volunteers around the world who have worked so hard to find and promote the success of promising technologies that will address our most challenging environmental and economic problems."



For 2010, Chevron signed on as a Global Partner of the Cleantech Open, providing expert counsel to some teams and welcoming all semifinalists for a day of networking and training at its San Ramon, Calif. campus. "We've seen a broad range of business value come out of the inaugural year of our partnership with the Cleantech Open," said Russ Yarrow, general manager of Corporate Affairs for Chevron. "It's given us a platform for a longer view into emerging technologies, helping us to continue innovating our global energy future."



2010 Alumni Award winner

Each year, the 2010 Alumni Award recognizes a Cleantech Open Alumnus that has achieved significant momentum during the year. This year, the Alumni award, which is sponsored by CalCEF, went to Mission Motors, the Transportation category winner in the 2007 Cleantech Open Business Competition.



2010 National Sustainability Award winner

The sustainability factor of the technologies and ideas of the teams that enter the Cleantech Open is given additional scrutiny by the mentors and judges, and each team receives specific mentoring to ensure this critical attribute is baked into each team's plan and investor pitch. This year's National Sustainability award, which was presented by Autodesk, goes to BioVantage Resources, for its algae-based wastewater treatment technology. Autodesk additionally supports early-stage clean technology companies through the Autodesk Clean Tech Partner Program, which provides powerful design and engineering software to accelerate their development of solutions to the world's most pressing environmental challenges.



2010 Global Cleantech Open Ideas winner

For the second year, cleantech innovations from around the world were featured at the Cleantech Open. The Global Cleantech Open Ideas Competition looks to find 'big ideas' by working at a grassroots level and to support and foster those ideas. Orchestrated in conjunction with the Kauffman Foundation, startups from around the world competed for a prize worth $100,000 in startup services. Entries were received from 20 countries, 14 of which traveled to attend the Cleantech Open Gala and Expo in San Jose. Five teams were presented to the audience, who voted Abeo of Denmark the winner, with its patented Super-Light Structure technology that aims to reduce the energy and materials needed in building construction.



The Cleantech Open Business Competition: How It Works

Now in its fifth year, the 2010 Cleantech Open National Business Competition was expanded this year from three to five regions: California, Pacific Northwest, Rocky Mountain, North Central, and Northeast. In March of this year, 271 teams submitted entries to compete, of which 81 made it to the semifinals, and 18 of those teams became regional finalists, eligible to compete in the national finals. Each of these regional finalists receives a prize package worth $30,000 in cash and services. At the national finals, a judging panel of 11 experts selected one winning team from each region to represent that region in the final round of judging: PureSolar(California), Puralytics (Pacific Northwest), INOTEC (Rocky Mountain), EarthClean(North Central), and OnChip Power (Northeast). Each of these regional winners receives an additional prize package worth $10,000 in cash and services. In the final round of judging, a national winner was selected for the Grand Prize. Puralytics, the Grand Prize Winner, receives an additional $250,000 in cash and services (of which $100,000 is awarded in the form of a seed investment from a consortium of investors: Wilson Sonsini Investment Company, Stiefel Family Foundation, and the Cleantech Open).



Cleantech Open Sponsors

The Cleantech Open is made possible by the generous support provided by Global Partner, Chevron; Global Foundation Partner, Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation; National Sponsor, Autodesk; Multi-Regional Gold Sponsor, Wells Fargo. The California region is additionally supported by Platinum Sponsors Pacific Gas & Electric and Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati.

Renewable Energy Stocks; XsunX (OTCBB: XSNX) Reaches 15.1 Percent Conversion Efficiency with its CIGS Thin-film Solar Technology

Renewable Energy  Stocks; XsunX (OTCBB: XSNX) Reaches 15.1 Percent Conversion Efficiency with its CIGS Thin-film Solar Technology

Cross-Industry CIGSolar Product Advances at Tremendous Rate Toward Commercial Market

Aliso Viejo, CA – November 9, 2010 (Investorideas.com renewable energy/green newswire) - XsunX, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board:XSNX.OB), the developer of hybrid, thin-film photovoltaic (TFPV) solar cell technologies and manufacturing processes, today announced it has further enhanced the conversion efficiency levels of its cell devices to 15.1 percent based upon the Company's CIGSolar™ technology. With other market-ready thin-film technologies functioning within the range of 8-11 percent for solar modules, the CIGSolar™ technology illustrates conversion efficiency that may soon lead to gains over current technology.



"The rate at which we're experiencing percentage point gains is truly incredible considering only weeks ago we announced surpassing 14 percent conversion efficiency," said Tom Djokovich, CEO, XsunX, Inc. "Our confidence that small area co-evaporation processes is the key to delivering the best performance CIGS thin-film cells continues to be strengthened."


CIGS thin-film researchers have concluded the theoretical limit for CIGS solar technology tops at 29 percent conversion efficiency, although the highest percentage ever achieved was 20 percent in a laboratory setting.

"It's important to remember that we are developing our technology on the same size substrates we intend to use in our commercial systems, about the same size as a silicon solar cell, so the efficiency levels we achieve in the laboratory we believe will be transferable to what we can offer the market," adds Tom. "Unlike current solar developers, we don't anticipate having to struggle with the challenges of scaling product while maintaining laboratory efficiencies."



XsunX has achieved 15.1 percent in a relatively short period of time and with less cost compared to other CIGS efforts that spanned many years and incurred significantly higher capital demands for less than similar results. This rapid success, coupled with the technology's perceived value as an alternate for the use of silicon solar cells, has accelerated the industry's interest levels which have not only led to additional license discussions for XsunX but has also allowed the Company to work towards executing its plan to develop JV License agreements to deliver the technology package through existing manufacturers.



This combination of leveraging existing branded manufacturers to deliver its systems and having branded module assemblers integrate the CIGSolar™ technology into their products allows XsunX to significantly reduce the need for debt or equity financing necessary to build factories directly while also providing bankability for its technology through proven manufacturers of solar modules.



Deposition of the CIGS cell layers was conducted on full size 125 mm square substrates. Test configurations used to measure efficiency are identical to that used by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory and XsunX test equipment is calibrated to the standards of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) standards.
About XsunX
XsunX is pioneering a new manufacturing process to produce low cost, high efficiency thin-film CIGS solar cells through the combination of thin-film photovoltaic (TFPV) process knowledge with select magnetic media thin-film manufacturing technologies pioneered in the hard disc drive industries. The company believes that leveraging small area and high rate production methods will reduce the processing defects plaguing large-scale production processes currently implemented in the marketplace.



The Company's offering license manufacturing opportunities for this technology to regional manufacturers.
