Made in Germany | Q-Cells and its solar panels

22-year-old Eric Schopp from Saxony Anhalt has landed gold with his apprenticeship at Q-Cells. Many of his friends are unemployed. For Eric, the future looks sunny. When he's finished his training, he's almost certain to be taken on by the company - the global market leader in solar panel manufacture. The company is enjoying enormous economic growth.

In 2001 it had 19 employees and a turnover of some one Mmillion euros. Today over 1600 people work for Q-Cells and the turnover has increased to 860 Mmillion. In 2007, the company made solar panels capable of generating a total of 370 Megawatts of power, charging ahead of the competition from eastern Germany, Japan (Sharp) and China (Suntech). Q-Cells CEO Anton Miller plans for the long term. In December he signed a co-operation deal with a Chinese silicon maker that will last until 2018. Bettina Thoma visited the factory in Bitterfeld.

The test for nuclear fusion realisation on Tokamak's installations and with LASER cannot bring anything new for the energetics' future. I bind the thermonuclear controlled reactor schedule by the Sun model , by the reactive electromagnetic motor schedule from Palenque stone's tombe. You see the my project for thermonuclear controlled reactor.

Added value of advancing solar power for meeting electricity demand means developing countries would have no reason to conceal a nuclear weapons program under the guise of a power grid.
