Sanyo Electric to Up Capacity for Solar Cells

TOKYO —

Sanyo Electric Co. will spend 7.8 billion yen (US$81.9 million) to increase output capacity for solar cells at a Shimane Prefecture facility by about 70 percent next April.

The firm plans to boost production of its HIT solar cells, which are a hybrid of crystalline and thin-film technologies. It foresees growth in demand for solar power generation systems on the back of economic stimulus spending by various countries.
