World’s Largest CIGS Thin-Film Solar Array Goes Live
On occasion, we will write headlines praising developments in things like the ‘the world’s first tidal power turbine‘ or ‘the world’s largest offshore wind farm.’ To set the record straight, we don’t do this only for the purposes of sensationalist self-aggrandizement, we also do it because there are really some exciting developments in the fast-moving world of cleantech; such language is normally apropos.
Global Solar Energy announced Wednesday the full operation of the largest solar electric array worldwide using CIGS photovoltaic technology. CIGS, or copper indium gallium diselenide thin-film solar cells are not dependent on silicon and instead use highly-available raw materials that are easily integrated into a wide range of applications.
