Affordable solar power for all
As a leading solar energy company, Meyer Burger is committed to this goal. At its modern sites in Freiberg (Saxony) and Bitterfeld-Wolfen (Saxony-Anhalt), the company will manufacture high-quality solar cells and modules "Made in Europe" from 2021. These are equipped with the proprietary heterojunction/smart-wire technology, which guarantees the highest efficiency at economic costs. The product range includes innovative and highly efficient solar modules for roof systems in the private and commercial sector as well as solutions for the solar power plant segment.
In addition, Meyer Burger, as a recognised technology company, supplies production equipment for standard solar cells with PERC technology.
Meyer Burger is a Swiss company with additional locations in Germany, Asia and North America.
Shareholders approve capital increase and transformation
81.4 % of the shareholders of Meyer Burger Technology Ltd approved the capital increase. This paves the way for Meyer Burger's transformation to a manufacturer of solar cells and solar modules.
Meyer Burger selects traditional solar locations for the establishment of production facilities
The use of the existing infrastructure at the locations in Bitterfeld-Wolfen (Saxony-Anhalt) and Freiberg (Saxony) should save resources - skilled workers and expertise are available in the regions.
Evolution into a solar cell and module manufacturer
Meyer Burger Technology Ltd aims to transform itself from a supplier of production equipment to a technologically leading manufacturer of solar cells and modules. Capital increase targeting gross proceeds of CHF 165 million planned.
