17. Solar Cadmium Telluride Use of the First Solar’s cadmium telluride thin film collectors helps to push the Photovoltaic Industry’s development by using new Mass Produced Technologies for PV cells that have a strong potential of obtaining SIGIFICANTLY LOWER COSTS PER WATT INSTALLED in the near future.Use of the First Solar’s cadmium telluride thin film collectors helps to push the Photovoltaic Industry’s development by using new Mass Produced Technologies for PV cells that have a strong potential of obtaining SIGIFICANTLY LOWER COSTS PER WATT INSTALLED in the near future. This installation also utilized new mass produced PVC flat ballast mounted roof racks.This installation also utilized new mass produced PVC flat ballast mounted roof racks. Other Benefits Include: Better performance on cloudy days And may include: Lower performance lost over the life of the collectorOther Benefits Include: Better performance on cloudy days And may include: Lower performance lost over the life of the collector
