Polysilicon

Activ Solar produces high-purity polysilicon at PJSC Semiconductor Plant, located in Zaporozhye, Ukraine. The production of semiconductor materials at the original Zaporozhye Titan and Magnesium Plant dates back to 1935. The facility formed the foundation of PJSC Semiconductor Plant, which began production of semiconductor-grade polysilicon in 1964. The plant historically was also the only manufacturer of high-purity trichlorosilane in the Soviet Union. After comprehensive refurbishment and modernization, PJSC Semiconductor Plant reached an annual capacity of 2,500 metric tons of polysilicon and 27,000 metric tons of trichlorosilane (HCl3Si). The facility also produces monosilicon ~20 MT per annum using old equipment with a plan to expand to ~400MT per annum. The factory also produces silicon tetrachloride (SiCl4), Hydrogen, Nitrogen and Hydrochloric Acid. [6]

PV Project Development

Activ Solar develops finances and realizes large-scale solar energy projects. Activ Solar has developed three solar PV power stations with more than 120 MWp of installed capacity in the Crimean Penninsula. At the end of 2010, Activ Solar completed construction of the 7.5 MW Rodnikovoye Solar Park. In October 2011, Activ Solar developed one of the largest solar power stations in the world, the 80 MW Okhotnykovo Solar Park and in November 2011, Phase III of the 60 MW Perovo Solar Park, was completed.[7][8]


R & D

Activ Solar's R & D efforts are commited to the continious improvement and innovation. Activ Solar maintains a Research & Development joint-venture with Diamond Aircraft Industries with an aim to develop innovative products and applications for the PV industry. Activ Solar exhibited an aircraft wing at the Paris Air Show 2011 in Le Bourget. The wing displayed showcases an innovative PV application for solar cells in aircrafts. [2]
