The CPV technology provides 30% efficiency while reducing installation and maintenance costs while providing environmental sustainability.

This technology is designed for high-volume power generation in regions with high direct normal irradiation (DNI) with Soitec recently completing a solar facility in Catania, Sicily.

Soitec Solar Energy Division Solar Projects Development vice president Jose Beriot remarked that the technology will provide the highest power-generating efficiency, making it a perfect match for Italy’s solar initiatives.

"We are committed to have a competitive offering in Italy and we are currently looking into integrating more and more local content.

"Soitec’s industrial manufacturing capacity and supply chain in Europe, with its fully automated solar-module factory in Freiburg, Germany, has proven to be a reliable and flexible infrastructure to ensure competitiveness and security of supply in Europe," added Bériot.
