Good idea to separate this big list out to a separate page

It would be an interesting upgrade to include where these companies play in the value chain, silicon, cells, modules, installation and operation. At minimum wafers cells and modules--Oldboltonian 18:07, 2 June 2007 (UTC)

Oldboltonian, I think this sort of Table, and discussion of the value chain, should be the basis of a new article entitled Photovoltaics commercialization. If you start the article, I would be happy to help with it. -- Johnfos 21:49, 2 June 2007 (UTC)

See my comment on the photovoltaics discussion page--Oldboltonian 19:11, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

List of weblinks, cruelly deleted from the PV cells article last year "Wikipedia is not a business directory" - no need to reinvent the wheel :)--Oldboltonian 19:11, 5 June 2007 (UTC) -

[edit] Business-side info

There is a much bigger list of hundreds of PV module and cell manufacturers to be found at www.enf.cn. I had some posts removed by someone who objected to me putting up a number of ENF links - so I would like to request that someone check the following links, and if they find them to be a valuable addition to the article, to please add them to the main article.

Anyone know if a company called "Girasolar" should be on the list? Their website (specifically the DutchSolar subsidary) shows various photovoltaic items for sale. The company has become quite and stopped releasing info though so hard to tell if they still have much of a presence in this buisness. Anyone here familiar with Girasolar? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.23.99.17 (talk) 01:00, 1 September 2007 (UTC)
