Sunfilm is the first producer of thin film silicon tandem junction modules on large substrate size (2,60x2,20 m2) using Applied Materials AKT PECVD systems. The company is scaling up its production facilities in Grossroehrdorf to a nominal output capacity of 2x60 MW/year. In April 2009, the final acceptance test (FAT) was achieved and production 24/7 has started in line 1. IEC product certification was achieved in June 2009. In January 2010 the FAT was achieved in line 2. Currently, Sunfilm is focusing on product development, line stabilization and cost reduction. The company has recently reached very high module efficiencies and offers a wide range of products. The line flexibility allows production of additional size formats between 1.4 and 5.7 m2. All Sunfilm products demonstrate better electrical yield kWh per installed MWp than conventional crystalline Si modules. In this paper the current status of module development and production at Sunfilm is presented. Special emphasis is given to the oneyear production and product experience.
