• Concentration on fast-growing module and project business
• Discontinuation of wafer manufacturing at the site in Jena
SCHOTT Solar AG is continuing with its realignment efforts with respect to its activities in the area of photovoltaics and will be concentrating on its fast-growing module and project business in the future. In this context, the company will be discontinuing its wafer manufacturing activities that are no longer profitable at its site in Jena and thus concluding its restructuring efforts. By realigning these activities, the company hopes to create the prerequisites for profitable growth.
