The Solaria Corp. engages in the design, development, and manufacture of solar panels and silicon photovoltaic modules and systems. The company was founded by Suvi Sharma, Kevin Gibson, Joel C. Goldbatt, and Leslie A. Danziger in 2000 and is headquartered in Oakland, CA.

Sunfilm AG is one of the world's largest manufacturers of silicon-based thin-film modules with a combined capacity of 85 megawatts peak (MWp) at its two German production sites in Grossroehrsdorf and Bitterfeld-Wolfen. The company has an additional 60 MWp of capacity under construction as well. Thin-film is one of the fastest growing segments of the solar PV industry. Sunfilm's innovative technology for tandem junction thin-film silicon solar modules allows a larger part of the solar spectrum to be harvested as compared to amorphous silicon thin-film solar modules, leading to higher module efficiencies. Additionally, the amount of silicon needed to produce these modules is significantly less than for crystalline silicon modules.
