We are working with our suppliers and partners along all steps of the value chain
to reduce costs by improving manufacturing technologies and expanding economies
of scale. Crystalline silicon is the principal commercial material for solar cells
and is used in several forms, including single-crystalline, or monocrystalline
silicon, multicrystalline, or polycrystalline silicon, ribbon and sheet silicon,
and thin-layer silicon. Our solar cell value chain starts with high purity silicon
called polysilicon. Polysilicon is created by refining quartz or sand.
Polysilicon is melted and grown into crystalline ingots and sawed into wafers
by business partners specializing in those processes. The wafers are processed
into solar cells in our manufacturing facilities located in the Philippines and
Malaysia. During fiscal 2017, we completed the construction of the solar cell
manufacturing facility that we own and operate in the Philippines which has an
annual capacity of 400 MW. The solar cell manufacturing facility we own and operate
in Malaysia has a total rated annual capacity of over 800 MW.
We use our solar cells to manufacture our X- and E-series solar panels at our
solar panel assembly facilities located in Mexico and France, while we source
solar cells from third parties for use in our P-Series solar panels at our solar
panel assembly facility in Mexico. Our solar panel manufacturing facilities
have a combined total rated annual capacity of close to 1.9 GW.
We source the solar panels and balance of system components based on quality,
performance, and cost considerations both internally and from third-party suppliers.
We typically assemble proprietary components, while we purchase generally available
components from third-party suppliers. The balance of system components, along
with the EPC cost to construct the project, can comprise as much as two-thirds
of the cost of a solar power system. Therefore, we focus on standardizing our
products with the goal of driving down installation costs, such as with our
Equinox, Helix, and SunPower Oasis systems.
