List of solar cell manufacturers
- List of solar cell manufacturers
According to industry sources, there are now over 200 solar cell manufacturers in the world and new ones added almost every week. It is probably impossible to provide an accurate and exhaustive list in the scope of Wikipedia. This list should therefore be treated as initial reference only.
