I am from Chile, and we have some good plans for this as applications. We hope be ready very soon.

At one time First Solar made their Series1-2 panels in 121Watt modules that were much smaller than their utility scale panels. I understand that Toledo Solar still makes the 121Watt panels that are small thin film CdTe. First Solar could scale their manufacturing line to produce a typical 20 square foot solar PV panel that would be around 340Watts STC and around a minimum of 300Watts PTC. I believe it’s time for First Solar to get back into the residential roof solar PV panel market. For solar PV panels, First Solar would be the “most” Made in America solar PV panel one could buy anywhere.
