Sanyo, the Japanese manufacturer of solar power generators has built a new plant in Dorog, Hungary. The 5,000 square metres factory began operations in July 2005 with 150 employees. The production volume of the new factory is planned to be doubled in 2006. Sanyo plans to employ 300 to 400 workers in the new plant by the end of 2006.
