Gujarat 500-MW Solar Park

India announced to invest on a solar park which is estimated to generate 1,000MW of solar power by 2012 and 3,000MW by 2015.

The park has been calculated to get sunlight 330 days a year, comprised with other locations around India. According to the report,

Gujarat government has already agreed to purchase nearly 933MW of power generated by the solar farms to help encourage further investors

Now investors and solar power hardware suppliers go in India, struggling to involve into this country's Green Energy Plan.

GT Solar Receives $47.3 Million Order SDR400 CVD Reactors

GT Solar International, Inc . (NASDAQ: SOLR), a global provider of polysilicon production technology, and sapphire and silicon crystalline growth systems and materials for the solar, LED and other specialty markets, today announced that it has received a $47.3 million order from South Korea-based polysilicon producer OCI Company, Ltd. for its newest SDR™400 CVD reactors. This is OCI’s third order for GT Solar’s SDR400 CVD reactors. The new systems will be installed as the first phase of OCI’s new polysilicon capacity expansion plan, which OCI announced on December 8, 2010. The order will be included in GT Solar’s backlog for its current Q3 FY11, which ends on January 1, 2011. GT Solar SDRTM CVD Reactor Series are high volume production chambers that utilize the proven Siemens-type process technology to manufacture high quality semiconductor grade or solar grade polysilicon.

Solar Car Project?

Even though I put all of my attention on solar roof project around the world, a solar car project leaded by Stanford students distract me. Apparently, they are doing it good. A 1985 Matsuura CNC 3-axis mill, that's the raw material they are working on. Look at the picture on their blog , the mill was fully equiped with solar panels. I don't know the conversion rate of silicon cells they are using, but I think I can provide them some if they need. However, what they want to prove is simple that a solar power car can be made and drive. Great job, Stanford students!

AnRoof Solar Power Photovoltaic Slate Tile Grid System

Solar power slate tile are made of monocrystalline silicon solar cells which are embedded in slate roof tile. By installation of overlapping, AnRoof solar slate tiles promise zero potential harm and zero dislodge risk. It's suggested to install on unshaded and sloping roof area. Excellent conversion rate make full use of house roof to provide seamless electricity in decades. It can be integrated to either on-grid or off-grid systems. The off-grid system is a stand-alone solar roofing system, ideal for home and business building that can't connect to country grid, the stable converted solar power can meet the needs of daily house electricity request. On-grid module enable house owners to sell extra solar power to grid companies besides daily electricity usage. The application area include residential, commercial and industrial buildings.
