Success of cadmium telluride PV has been due to the low cost achievable with the CdTe technology, made possible by combining adequate efficiency with lower module area costs. Direct manufacturing cost for CdTe PV modules reached $0.57 per watt in 2013, and capital cost per new watt of capacity was about $0.9 per watt (including land and buildings) in 2008.
The building-integrated modules for tiled roofs interlock with nearly all flat concrete and clay tiles, resulting in lower installation costs and minimal disruptions – all while creating a durable solar

Well, solar shingles blend seamlessly with asphalt roofs while generating electricity. These photovoltaic tiles contain silicon cells that convert sunlight into power, just like conventional
First Solar''s Ohio plant now recovers 95% of tellurium from old panels. Their closed-loop system could make CdTe the first fully recyclable PV technology by 2025.
Our solar industry solutions encompass a wide range of applications from residential rooftop installations to large-scale commercial and utility photovoltaic projects.

CdTe is a material made from the combination of two elements: Cadmium (Cd) and Tellurium (Te). It plays a critical role of light absorption—hence why a CdTe solar cell is named after it.
Ask the PV installer to demonstrate that the placement of the panels on the roof allows adequately for cleaning and also provides access for the Fire Department.
