What is SolarWorld, and what do you make?
The SolarWorld group is one of the largest solar PV manufacturers in the world. We are vertically integrated throughout the solar value chain and our only business is Solar Photovoltaics. SolarWorld AG has been in business since 1997, and in 2006 acquired the Camarillo, CA and Vancouver, WA factories from Shell Solar. SolarWorld’s Camarillo factory was the largest PV factory in the USA from 1977 to 2008 (when SolarWorld opened the new factory in Hillsboro, OR) and has operated under several well-respected names, including ARCO Solar, Siemens Solar, and Shell Solar. We are the largest and most experienced PV manufacturer in the US. SolarWorld is vertically integrated from silicon to systems. We manufacture our own silicon ingots, wafers and cells as well as solar panels and factory designed systems. Our primary US product is the SolarWorld Sunmodule®, which we sell as modules or as part of residential Sunkits® or commercial systems.
