August 30, 2010... MiaSole, a maker of glass-glass copper indium gallium selenide (CIGS) thin-film photovoltaic solar panels, announced purchase agreements to supply German renewable energy company, juwi Solar GmbH with CIGS photovoltaic modules. The larger agreement is for 7.5 MW of MiaSole's CIGS thin-film modules and will be used in Q3 and Q4 of 2010 for ground mounted and rooftop projects throughout Germany. This agreement follows 1MW of CIGS modules delivered to juwi in Q2 2010 for projects in Germany and San Antonio, Texas. The CIGS modules incorporate a rugged glass-glass design, which the company says is suitable for the most rigorous snow load requirement. The design boasts a low open circuit voltage and interconnecting cables that the Miasole says reduce the owner's balance of systems cost versus comparable thin film modules.

"We are very encouraged that MiaSole is supplying its proven and bank financeable modules for a number of projects developed by juwi solar," said Lars Falck, Managing Director of juwi Solar GmbH. "We expect that our relationship with MiaSole will grow to help us meet the increasing needs for solar power together."
