  • EVERGREEN SOLAR INC Profile

    Evergreen Solar wants to be a star in solar power. Using its proprietary crystalline technology, called String Ribbon, the company develops and manufactures solar power cells and panels. Applications for Evergreen's solar cells and systems include highway call boxes, microwave stations, street and billboard lighting, and off-grid rural electrification. Once a novelty, solar power has become more efficient and is now targeted at both remote rural users and the clean-energy set. Leading customers include Krannich Solartechnik (20% of sales), Donauer Solartechnik (19%), and SunPower Systems. Evergreen Solar gets most of its sales in the US.
