Business & Innovation...

We have talked a lot here about the power of “green collar” jobs to really revitalize the manufacturing sector of this country. In fact I get emails all the time asking me to hook people up with jobs in the renewable energy field (if you are interested start your search here) so clearly there is a desire for these kind of jobs.

Now it seems that SCHOTT solar (covered before here here and here) is opening a brand new solar energy technology production facility in the Mesa del Sol region of Albuquerque, NM. The facility will manufacture receivers for concentrated solar thermal power plants and photovoltaic (PV) modules. The facility is scheduled to have an annual PV production capacity of 64 MW.
