Natcore Technology Inc. has signed a joint development agreement with Eurotron B.V. The collaboration has three primary objectives: to adapt Natcore's laser process to a contact design that is compatible with Eurotron's back contact technology; to enable Natcore to incorporate six-inch cells into commercial-style modules, using both its own technology and Eurotron's Backcontact Module technology; to explore possibilities for further cooperation wherein Natcore would commercialize Eurotron's Backcontact Module technology as it may be used in conjunction with Natcore's laser-based technology on a new cell design. Joint work will be performed in the Eurotron Competence Center, a facility opened in May 2014 to provide lab-to-fab testing and pre-production services for solar cell/module technologies. The Competence Center is said to be the first in the world dedicated to back-contact cell/module technologies.

Once Natcore has optimized their technology on a small scale, they will produce prototype six-inch demonstration cells for delivery to Eurotron.
