WorldWater & Solar Technologies Corp. (OTC BB:WWAT.OB), developer and marketer of proprietary high-power solar systems, today announced that its new ENTECH manufacturing facility in Fort Worth, Texas, remains on track to open in July. The 70,000 square foot center has a planned capacity for 200 Megawatts of production. ENTECH has already taken delivery of certain testing equipment and machinery for the initial 50 MW line, which is expected to begin rolling out concentrator systems for validation during the third quarter. The company anticipates having prototypes available in the September timeframe, with IEC certification in the first half of 2009. Prior to obtaining IEC 62108 qualification, the company will be testing to UL SU 8703 and IEEE 1513 standards.
“We continue to believe our new ENTECH factory will accept orders and deliver products by the end of the year for customers not requiring IEC certification and to deliver certified products during the first half of 2009,” said Frank Smith, CEO. “Going forward, ENTECH will play an increasingly visible role with regard to WorldWater’s growth and competitive advantage. We will begin introducing ENTECH into those projects that are well suited for its technology as soon as possible and also intend to sell ENTECH hardware as a standalone product to bolster our margins in 2009 and beyond.”
