PowerLight, a leading provider of large scale solar project systems has entered into a long term agreement with Q-Cells, a German company that is the world's largest independent manufacturer of high-performance solar cells, to supply the Berkely based company with $150 million in solar cells with an option that can be exercised by PowerLight to buy an additional $60 million in cells. Recently the Red Herring wrote about the Top 3 Solar Trends, one of which was "A focus on silicon:" pointing out a shortage of solar-grade silicon. It appears that PowerLight has gone a long way in insuring that it's supplies do not dry up even as demand for solar arrays heats up.
