Since Q-Cells SE was established in 1999, within a few short years it has grown into one of the largest solar cell manufacturers in the world. And now we are turning it into a photovoltaic company spanning the globe. Q-Cells’ core business is the development, manufacture and marketing of powerful solar cells made out of monocrystalline and multicrystalline silicon. More than 250 scientists and engineers at Q-Cells are working on technology development to achieve Q-Cells’ paramount aim: to drive down the costs of photovoltaics quickly and permanently. After all, this is the only way to make solar power affordable and competitive. Q-Cells’ second pillar in production is the manufacture of thin-film technologies based on various technologies. As a result, over the years a series of subsidiaries developing alternative technologies has set up shop alongside Q-Cells in Solar Valley.
