First Solar has commissioned a new R&D innovation center in Lake Township, Ohio, which it says is the largest facility of its kind in the Western Hemisphere.
The Jim Nolan Center for Solar Innovation covers 1.3 million square feet and includes a pilot manufacturing line allowing for the production of prototypes of thin film and tandem PV modules.
Prior to commissioning the center, First Solar utilized a manufacturing line at its Perrysburg facility for its late-stage product development efforts.
“Thin films are the next technological battleground for the solar industry because they are key to commercializing tandem devices, which are anticipated to be the next disruption in photovoltaics,” says Mark Widmar, chief executive officer, First Solar.
“While the United States leads the world in thin film PV, China is racing to close the innovation gap. We expect that this crucial investment in R&D infrastructure will help maintain our nation’s strategic advantage in thin film, accelerating the cycles of innovation needed to ensure that the next disruptive, transformative solar technology will be American-made.”

Is a Team of Is a Bunch of MAGA Thugs Beating the Snot Out of a Woman a New Low, or Is it What We Now Need to Expect?
Just when we think there is a bottom, the United States sinks just a bit lower. It’s our brand nowadays.
That’s quite a left cross this thug delivered to this helpless female protestor.
It wasn’t too long ago that beating up women was taboo in America. My 11-year-old, sixth-grade son saw a male classmate of his badly bruise a girl by pushing her hard down to the ground–and proceeded to punch him in the mouth. A fellow father witnessed the scene and told me, “Your son’s fist was in that kid’s teeth within a fraction of a second.”
I had brought him up to avoid violence and achieve peaceful resolutions to conflicts, but I couldn’t fault him here.
What a disgusting bunch of turds we’ve become.
We’re starting to see intimations that stupidity like this is generated and posted by Russian data centers so as to appeal to MAGA idiots and favor the Republicans in the upcoming midterms.
Every day, we come across articles that summarize Trump’s “accomplishments.”
I thought I’d publish this masterpiece.
