What is a solar wafer?

For every solar energy system, a wafer is one of its most important components. This is because a wafer, also called a slice or substrate, is a thin slice of semiconductor, such as crystalline silicon, that is used for the fabrication of integrated circuits and, in the case of photovoltaics, to manufacture solar cells.

How many GW of solar photovoltaic wafers are there?

Since then, the company has engaged in the manufacturing of solar photovoltaic wafers and has two manufacturing bases and six-core companies. As of right now, their wafer manufacturing scale is 10 GW: 6 GW for single crystal, 3 GW for polycrystalline, and 1 GW for cast single crystal.

Do solar systems need wafers?

As a slice of semiconductor, a wafer is incredibly needed in solar energy systems so as to be able to generate electricity. If a solar system has no wafers in it, then it’s practically useless. That is why for every solar installation business out there, acquiring high-quality wafers for their solar systems is a must.
