First Solar (R) Incorporated, founded in 1999 and based in Phoenix, Arizona, develops photovoltaic (PV) energy systems. It employs a proprietary thin film semiconductor technology in optimizing the production ofhigh-performance modules. Cadmium and tellurium (CdTe) direct bandgap semiconductors efficiently convert solar energy into electricity. CdTe semiconductor material is produced from readily available and low-cost cadmium and tellurium, which are zinc mining and copper refining by-products. CdTe material supports the creation of relatively simple device structures, streamlining manufacturing processes. First Solar is known for its FS Series PV modules, which are employed by large, grid-connected solar power plants. The products are sold to commercial PV project developers, systems integrators, and renewable energy project operators across North America and Europe. First Solar has earned ISO 9001:2000 and ISO 14001:2004 certifications. The company acquired Turner Renewable Energy in 2007. First Solar went public in 2006. The firm is listed on NASDAQ under the FSLR symbol.
