Company Information

International Solar Electric Technology (ISET) was established as a California corporation on March 24, 1985 with the objective of developing low cost materials and processes for manufacturing PV modules.  During the last 25 years, ISET has received nearly $18 million in funding from federal, state agencies, and private corporations to carry out extensive R&D work in thin film technologies.

In 2006, ISET began development of a pilot production facility for manufacturing printed CIGS photovoltaic modules. ISET's Laboratories and Manufacturing facilities are housed in a 23,000 ft² facility at 20600 Plummer St. in Chatsworth, California.
