Producing their own wafers, cells and modules assures that the highest quality components go into every one of Evergreen's solar panels. And since they are made with String Ribbon™ technology, their solar panels take advantage of one of the newest, fastest-growing, most environmentally friendly manufacturing processes available in the world.

Evergreen Solar products have the smallest carbon footprint of any crystalline silicon product, nearly 50% smaller than typical monocrystalline based solar panels. And they continue to reduce our carbon footprint through new innovations. So if you’re choosing to go on a low carbon diet there’s only one obvious choice.

Evergreen Solar is a fully integrated, independent U.S. company. Solar is their only business. Evergreen's commitment to the environment is matched only by their commitment to their customers. If you want the best in solar, make the pure choice…Evergreen Solar panels.

Technology

To understand the importance of String Ribbon technology is to grasp the elegant balance it strikes between conventional and emerging technologies.

String Ribbon Technology Simple String Ribbon combines the best attributes of conventional crystalline silicon and emerging thin films. It achieves the reliability, stability, high efficiency, and market acceptance of crystalline silicon - without the inherent cost and waste of sawing. And it embodies the efficient material utilization and potential for continuous processing of thin films, but with a more manufacturable process.

Reliable In the String Ribbon technique, two high temperature strings are pulled vertically through a shallow silicon melt, and the molten silicon spans and freezes between the strings. The process is continuous: long strings are unwound from spools; the melt is replenished; and the silicon ribbon is cut to length for further processing, without interrupting growth. This advantage in material efficiency means String Ribbon yields over twice as many solar cells per pound of silicon as conventional methods. Additionally, the resulting distinctive shape of the solar cell allows for a high packing density.

Advanced Ongoing technology development shows great promise for even lower cost. Early experiments have produced 15% solar cells on thin 100 micron wafers. And downstream, in cells and modules, Evergreen Solar is developing processes that are simple, continuous, non-vacuum, high throughput, environmentally benign, and energy efficient.
