Products/services<br />
The MAXIS cell is a multicrystalline silicon solar cell. The special texturization<br />
production process delivers cells that combine an outstandingly uni<strong>for</strong>m<br />
appearance with efficiencies up to 17,5%.<br />
The LYRA cell is a unique full square monocrystalline back contact solar cell.<br />
These cells offer efficiencies up to 18,6% and an enhanced visual appeal<br />
because <strong>the</strong>re are no bus bars on <strong>the</strong> front. The ‘metallization wrap through’<br />
process allows <strong>the</strong> electrodes to be passed through <strong>the</strong> cell.<br />
