The PV Group is a SEMI special interest group dedicated to serving the PV manufacturing supply chain. Members of the PV Group provide the essential equipment, materials and services necessary to produce clean, renewable energy from photovoltaic technologies. The PV Group is committed to lowering costs for PV energy and for expanding the growth and profitability of SEMI members serving this essential industry. Together we can change the world. A tiny fraction of today’s energy needs are met by alternative sources. Yet with concerns about the scarcity of fossil fuels, environmental degradation, and increased energy dependence, photovoltaic (PV) technology offers an abundant energy source for the future. Solar power use has expanded dramatically in recent years, with the certainty of exponential growth ahead. However, we all face challenges in accelerating this potential. No one will overcome them alone. PV manufacturers and their suppliers are in a unique position to find the answers. It will take a global collaborative effort to lower costs and bring PV to the mass market. You can help us lead this effort. There is only one way to make economical PV manufacturing a reality: by acting together and applying lessons learned from the semiconductor and other advanced technology industries. Together we can create the standards so urgently needed to reduce costs. Together we can exchange insights to advance the technology and the industry. Together we can optimize the supply chain and garner government support for adoption. The more we collaborate, the greater the growth.
