Talk:List of photovoltaics companies

Good idea to separate this big list out to a separate page

It would be an interesting upgrade to include where these companies play in the value chain, silicon, cells, modules, installation and operation. At minimum wafers cells and modules--Oldboltonian 18:07, 2 June 2007 (UTC)

Oldboltonian, I think this sort of Table, and discussion of the value chain, should be the basis of a new article entitled Photovoltaics commercialization. If you start the article, I would be happy to help with it. -- Johnfos 21:49, 2 June 2007 (UTC)

See my comment on the photovoltaics discussion page--Oldboltonian 19:11, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

List of weblinks, cruelly deleted from the PV cells article last year "Wikipedia is not a business directory" - no need to reinvent the wheel :)--Oldboltonian 19:11, 5 June 2007 (UTC) -

Business-side info

There is a much bigger list of hundreds of PV module and cell manufacturers to be found at www.enf.cn. I had some posts removed by someone who objected to me putting up a number of ENF links - so I would like to check for objections here first so see if any PV business experts have an reason to believe the link is not a valid valuable additional bit of information.
