BISOL Group report 22 per cent increase in production year-on-year
BISOL Group has recorded a 22 per cent increase in manufactured PV modules last year compared to 2011. One of the main achievements in 2012 was an international contract worth 8 million euros to develop a turnkey solar power plant in Kazakhstan.
In the past year, BISOL Group has initiated extensive investments in automation of its manufacturing facility, which will be completed at the beginning of 2013. Modernisation began last summer and will increase the production capacity by almost 10 per cent.
In 2012, the company developed and launched several new solar products, including the off-grid system for energy self-sufficiency, BISOL EasyMount polyethylene bases 200, performance monitoring service and highly efficient PV modules with anti-reflecting glass.
Chairman of the Board, Dr. Uroš Merc, pointed out: "Crucial for BISOL Group and other European manufactures in 2013 will be the decision by European Commission regarding the anti-dumping investigation on Chinese solar panel imports. The solar energy will become even more competitive with electricity generated by conventional energy sources and will reach grid parity in many countries. BISOL Group will continue its internal cost consolidation and implementation of new products and technological improvements in terms of offering comprehensive photovoltaic solutions." This year even greater emphasis will be on sustainable development, the renewables and using affordable and eco-friendly energy. "The overarching shift to green future in public opinion will continue hence crucial for raising public awareness will be stressing the facts about photovoltaic systems and their impact on lowering electricity prices for end-users," adds Merc.
