Dow Corning & Crystal join hands to incorporate silicon based materials for PV products
Mumbai: Dow Corning plans to develop a business relationship with Crystal Solar for the supply of high-performance, silicon-based materials for photovoltaic (PV) cells and modules.

"Beyond expanding its key supplier position for feedstock and silicon-based materials for Solar PV, Dow Corning partners with leaders in the solar and renewable energy industries, such as Crystal Solar," said Dan Futter, Vice President of Solar Solutions at Dow Corning.
Dow Corning can provide access to high-quality trichlorosilane, specialized silicon-based materials, and supply chain consultancy to support a breakthrough manufacturing approach developed by Crystal Solar to produce monocrystalline ultra-thin silicon epi-wafers. Crystal Solar's innovative Epitaxial technology allows for high efficiency solar panels at lower costs with advanced functionality to competing approaches.
Commenting on the recent venture, TS Ravi, CEO, Crystal Solar says, "We are very pleased to be working with Dow Corning on a broad-based framework to make high-efficiency solar panels at costs below $0.50/W in production."
