Megacell S.R.L.

MegaCell is the leading and Italian based photovoltaic (PV) bi-facial high efficiency cells and module manufacturer, owned by Mega Group, which was recently established by Mr. Franco Traverso. Traverso is considered a pioneer of the Italian photovoltaic cells technology, given his extended experience of more than 30 years in photovoltaic (PV) sector since 1981, when he founded his first company ‘Helios Technology’ (sold in 2008). In 2007 he founded ‘Silfab’ which currently produces 150 MW/year of photovoltaic (PV) modules in Ontario (Canada) through its fully controlled company named Silfab Solar Inc. MegaCell is focusing on the manufacturing of BiSoN, high-efficiency mono-crystalline N-type solar cells, and - in particular - on exploiting the strongly enhanced energy yield thanks to their bi-faciality. MegaCell has a nameplate production capacity of 80 MW of bi-facial solar cells on yearly base, totally destined for the production of high efficiency mono-crystalline BiSoN bi-facial cells, through the application of an advanced technology developed by Franco Traverso’s team, together with the German based Research & Development Institute ISC of Konstanz.
