RoseStreet Labs Energy announced the opening of a full spectrum solar cell develoopment center in Phoenix, Arziona as part of its vision to produce and market high efficiency photovoltaic products. This photovoltaic development center includes a full spectrum PV pilot line and also a laboratory for solar cell packaging and interconnection.

As background to the opening of the pilot line, RoseStreet Labs, LLC & Sumitomo Chemical Co. Ltd. (Sumitomo) formed a joint venture, Rosestreet Labs Energy, Inc. (RoseStreet Energy), in December, 2006 for the development and manufacturing of full spectrum solar cells for the renewable energy markets. The joint venture is headquartered in Phoenix, Arizona and is developing both thin film and multijunction high efficiency solar cells for both the concentrated photovoltaic (CPV) and flat panel markets.

RoseStreet Energy has exclusive patent licenses from both Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) and Cornell University for unique semiconductor devices that use a significantly larger fraction of the solar spectrum compared to existing products.
