5N Plus Inc. announced that it has secured multi-year contracts for the supply of semiconductor materials associated with the manufacturing of thin-film photovoltaic (PV) modules by First Solar Inc. The terms of these contracts are structured asymmetrically with lower volumes anticipated in the earlier period of the contract. 5N Plus has been a key supplier of semiconductor materials to First Solar Inc., since 2007 and over this period several long-term contracts have been signed and successfully executed between the two companies. During this period 5N Plus has become the world leading supplier of engineered semiconductor compounds to the thin-film Renewable Energy Industry, enabling its customers to deliver reliable and cost-effective solutions to the market. 5N Plus semiconductor materials are imbedded in First Solar's Series 6 module in a specialty semiconductor stack which is 33 times thinner than the thickness of a human hair. The Series 6 module has a carbon footprint that is up to six times lower and a water footprint that is up to 24 times lower than crystalline silicon PV panels. Given the fact that a large portion of 5N Plus' production activity related to these semiconductor compounds is powered by renewable energy, Series 6 modules produced with 5N Plus semiconductor thin-film materials deliver the lowest carbon solar available on November 12, 2020.
