Quotes

Dr Reimund Neugebauer President of the Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft said that "As an engineer and economist, Prof. Dr. Fuhrmann is a generalist who, in his role as a business leader, is exceptionally suited to the requirement profile placed on members of our Senate."
"Across our product portfolio, systems such as Kahuna 360 are 3D-ready and are being used to support 3D productions around the world. With features to support image processing, live production, automation, workflow control, and distribution within the 3D environment, Kahuna 360 enables broadcasters to leverage powerful, familiar tools to meet the rising demand for 3D content."
...CSE have developed a new basis for assessing the service life of a solar module," says Guenter Schulze, Chief Technical Officer of aleo solar AG. "The realistic endurance test provides operators of photovoltaic installations with the assurance that their aleo modules will continue to provide high energy yields for a long time to come. These favourable technical test results once again demonstrate the robustness and performance of our solar modules." The laboratory tests at Fraunhofer ISE reinforce test results previously published on aleo modules: independent specialist contractor MBJ, for example...
"Boosting efficiency levels is a key step in outperforming the economics of conventional PV," said Andre-Jacques Auberton-Herve, CEO of Soitec. "Through our collaboration with the Fraunhofer and the Leti, two world-class R&D partners, our own leadership experience in materials and bonding technologies as well as our CPV commercial experience, we have been able to achieve this major advancement in a very short time. This represents a major proof-of-concept, on track to demonstrate a concentrated solar cell with 50 pr cent efficiency as soon as 2015."
