fact sheet

Introduction
GE’s CdTe thin film solar module combines industry leading solar
technology with GE’s continued commitment to quality and
customer value. The CdTe thin film module is a cost-competitive
solar solution that requires less material than alternative
technologies to achieve high levels of performance. Designed with
the expertise developed over a combined 100+ years of thin-film
deposition experience, GE’s CdTe thin film module is an efficient
and affordable way to meet your sustainable energy needs.

Technical Description
Incorporating the latest advancements in thin film PV module
technology, GE’s CdTe thin film module is comprised of 116 thin
film cells connected in series. Our proprietary module will reach
peak powers up to 83 watts at 75 volts. The module is frameless
and has a durable glass laminate construction designed to
withstand weather extremes such as snow, hail, and wind while
being more cost effective than traditional modules. It is also
designed for long life in harsh environments.
GE's CdTe thin film module is optimized for use in large-scale grid
connected installations and is well suited for both rooftop and
ground mount applications.
