CENTROSOLAR Group AG is a listed photovoltaic company specialising in roof-mounted systems. Our core business focuses on complete plug-and-play installations for roofs on private houses as well as key components, such as fastening systems and solar glass. The CENTROSOLAR Group is one of the industry’s leading companies with more than 1,000 employees in Europe and the United States and a sales volume of EUR 400m in 2010.
The product range includes complete PV systems, modules made of crystalline cells, building-integrated PV installations, inverters, on-roof and in-roof fastening systems as well as low-iron solar glass with an anti-reflective coating. Another area of our expertise lies in project planning for solar installations on commercial buildings.
CENTROSOLAR has its own PV module production facility in Wismar (Germany) and a solar glass production site in Fuerth (Germany). The Centrosolar Sonnenstromfabrik solar factory in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern is one of the most modern module production facilities in Europe, with a current annual production capacity of 200 MWp. In 2011, CENTROSOLAR will expand production to a second factory with a long-term capacity of up to 300 MWp in addition to existing production. At the beginning of 2011, the company also signed a production agreement with the Taiwanese chip manufacturer TSMC and will now produce crystalline solar modules, exclusive to Europe, for TSMC in the Sonnenstromfabrik solar factory.
All of the companies within the CENTROSOLAR Group AG have distinguished themselves with their longstanding experience in the photovoltaic sector and count among the pioneers in the industry. They occupy the top positions in the international arena within their respective market segments. Awards like the Bavarian Innovation Prize 2008 and the German Solar Prize 2005 are among our many distinctions.
