Innovations, together with a high product quality, succeeded in impressing the specialist audience. Each day of the exhibition drew huge numbers of visitors.

Heraeus Noblelight has created a vacuum test chamber in its in-house Application Centre in Kleinostheim.

Heraeus' front side silver paste SOL9235H, has assumed an industry leading position in market share, quality and efficiency.

As of August 1st, 2009 Mr. Carsten Mohr will be responsible for the Management of the Business Unit Photovoltaic for the region Europe. Mr. Mohr will report directly to the worldwide Business Unit Manager, Andy London, who is also the Site Manager of Heraeus Materials Technology in Conshohocken (HMT-CO).

Dr. Werner Wilke and Peter Dorthans, joint Managing Directors of the VDI/VDE-IT, visited the Heraeus headquarters in Hanau and took the opportunity to have a close look at the new HeraSol applications centre.

Recently it became possible to significantly increase the efficiency factor of crystalline solar cells by the use of so-called Metal Wrap Through (MWT) cells.

Photovoltaic is the clean and climate friendly generation of electricity through the conversion of sunlight, and as such will help to secure the future of generations to come.
