With our innovative technology for producing cost-effective solar silicon, JPM Silicon will speed up the expansion of solar energy around the world. Founded in 2010 we provide unique equipment and services to the global silicon and solar silicon industry.
Solar silicon is the feedstock for the majority of solar cells produced today. With our technology we cut the price for solar silicon by more than 50%. This will lead to new concepts for producing solar cells at affordable cost.
Due to our knowhow in the field of process engineering and the solar industry we expanded our business into recycling and test equipment for silicon production, which is now ready to scale.
With first customer leads in 2015 JPM Silicon enters the European market.
JPM Silicon will not only cut costs for solar silicon by 50% but also greenhouse emissions. Besides this, we aim to optimize the whole value chain of solar silicon and thus increase material and energy efficiency. This will speed up the use of solar cells as an energy source of the future.
Our target customers are producers of refined solar silicon (market size $6b in 2014).
