SunPower GmbH
SunPower Corporation designs, manufactures and delivers high-performance solar electric systems worldwide.
In 1985 Dr. Swanson set up the SunPower Corporation to distribute high-efficiency photovoltaic-cells-technology for usage with solar parabolic mirrors. In January 2007, SunPower incorporated the PowerLight Corporation, a leading supplier of large-scale solar plants. So far, PowerLight has developed and installed hundreds of large-scale solar plants with over 150 MW worldwide and operates them.
By integrating processes and technologies within the complete value-added chain, SunPower plans to reduce the average total cost of a solar plant by 50% until 2012. SunPower is of the view that solar plants can produce energy at competitive market prices and will become a well-established energy source.
