In 1980, SANYO was the first company starting mass production of amorphous solar cells. In 1997, mass production of the high efficiency, high output HIT® Photovoltaic Modules was started.
The HIT® Solar cells (thin mono crystalline silicon wafer surrounded by ultra-thin amorphous silicon layers) are highly appreciated by the market not only by the characteristics of high efficiency and outstanding temperature characteristics but also because of their very high reliability.
In 2004, SANYO Component Europe GmbH, the European sales headquarter was established, followed by the module assembly production site in Hungary in 2005. SANYO Component Europe GmbH is a member of PV CYCLE and is the first member to have signed a binding participation agreement with the organisation.

SANYO is pleased to announce that it will showcase its HIT Solar Technology at the SOLAR HUB at this year’s Eco Build show, taking place in London between 2nd and 4th March, 2010. The SOLAR HUB is one of 4 feature points at this year’s Eco Build. These feature points are designed to educate visitors on building trends and renewable technology and at the SOLAR HUB, a range of the latest solar solutions will be on display. In addition, visitors will be able to find out more about the Government’s Clean Energy Cashback Scheme. Under this scheme which is due to be launched in April 2010, owners of PV systems will be paid a guaranteed rate for the energy they generate.
Shigeki Komatsu, Director of the European Solar Division for SANYO commented, “We are very excited about the government subsidy scheme in the UK. In Germany, where a similar scheme has been in existence since 2000, the market has grown by approximately 3GW per year, creating what is now the largest and most developed market in the world. PV subsidies have been introduced in many other countries around the world with rapid market grown being achieved in each instance. We are sure that the same can be true of the UK.”
