June 28, 2010... Sulfurcell, a CIS/CIGSe thin-film solar modules manufacturer based in Germany, has commenced operations in the U.S. The company reports that its copper-indium-sulfide (CIS) thin-film modules that are made in Germany are now available in the U.S. for numerous building and rooftop integrated applications. The company ,which is partially funded by Intel Capital, reportedly plans to establish a network of system installers and integrators across the U.S. over the coming months.

The company's CIS thin-film solar modules are black in color and compact in size. Sulfurcell contends that the quality, size and color of its CIS modules make them an ideal option for building integrated photovoltaics for property owners and architects. The module products include frameless, framed and roof-integrated modules. The company first introduced the CIS modules in 2005 in Europe. Sulfurcell contends that the modules significantly surpass the standards of their IEC certification. The company says that the same performance registered at an operating-life of 1,000 hours at 85 percent humidity and 85°C can be witnessed after 2,000 hours.
