Odersun CIS solar modules meet criteria for higher solar power tariffs in Italy
The Copper-Indium-disulphide semiconductor on long reels of Copper Tape (CISCuT) have been independently tested.
The VDE Institute has confirmed that the thin-film solar cells produced in Germany by Odersun AG will carry the ‘Made in Europe’ certificate. Solar plant operators using Odersun modules can therefore realise a 10% higher feed-in tariff.
This is based on the latest Italian feed-in law (Conto Energia IV), which introduces new rules for funding solar power in Italy. The energy agency GSE will pay a 10% higher subsidy for projects incorporating European components.
In collaboration with GSE, a certificate has been developed to confirm that at least 60% of a module or its system components have been manufactured in Europe.
