Q3 for Solar Fabrik

Solar Fabrik AG has just released its latest set of quarterly earnings.

One of Germany's smaller solar companies (turnover EUR 52.1 million in 2004), it manufactures and supplies solar modules, inverters, installation accessories and solar system solutions. This year it is predicted to have a 20 MW output.

What makes Solar Fabrik unusual is that a company this small manages to be independent. Manufacturing in solar is usually dependent on scale. Morover, they have some ingenious products designed for the developing world; a solar powered water purifier and an autonomous solar power plant - the solar home station.
