SunPower Corporation

Description

SunPower Corporation designs, manufactures and sells high efficiency solar cells and solar panels that generate electricity from sunlight for residential, commercial and remote power applications. Our proprietary all back contact silicon solar cell technology produces up to 50% more power per square foot compared to conventional solar cells. Our SPR-200 solar panels feature a unique, uniformly black design that many home and business owners prefer.SunPower solar cells are manufactured in a state-of-the-art facility outside of Manila capable of producing 75 megawatts per year. Our facility has space for approximately 100 megawatts per year of production. Our Cypress Semiconductor Corporation heritage marries our high-efficiency solar cell technology with highly disciplined technology and manufacturing processes from the traditional semiconductor industry. Our Company headquarters and research and development facilities are located in Sunnyvale, California, the heart of Silicon Valley.A-300 SunPower solar cells are unique because the metal contacts needed to collect and conduct electricity are on the back surface of the solar cells – away from the sunlight. This design eliminates reflective metal contacts on the front of the solar cell. In addition to improving cell performance, this design leaves the front surface with a uniformly black appearance.
