short video interview CEO of ESLR link to video pv-tech.org Unlocking string ribbon technology with Richard Feldt, CEO of Evergreen Solar Evergeen Solar is an integrated manufacturer of wafers, cells and panels. Their unique string ribbon technology for making wafers has created quite a stir in the industry. This exclusive video interview with CEO, Richard Feldt, describes this string ribbon processes. The process is continuous, silent and clean: long wires unwind from spools, run through the molten silicon and pull a long “ribbon” of silicon out of the melt. The ribbon is harvested periodically and cut into smaller pieces for further processing into solar cells. All this happens in Evergreen Solar's state-of-the-art, table-top sized furnaces. The Gemini II furnaces grow two 3.2-inch (80mm) wide ribbons at a time. Evergeen Solar is a growing company with a strong technology pedigree. This year they should reach 25MW of production. With the successful ramp of their Massachusetts facility in 2008 they should reach 105MW production in 2009. In this interview, Richard Feldt predicts 850MW in 2012 and achieving profitability in 2009.
