Description
Bisol, a company engaged in the field of photovoltaic (PV), is expanding and is due to employ 230 new people by the end of 2011. The company faces an increase of orders and thus needs more people to meet demand requirements. In April 2010 it had 140 employees, now it has 220 employees. For 2011, the company plans to employ additional 150 workers, which will bring total employment to 370. Altogether from April 2010 to the end of 2011 some 230 new jobs will have been created.
About the PV industry PV systems are used in the exploitation of the solar energy, i.e. they are used either as stand-alone units in remote areas where commonly used sources of energy are not readily available, or as widely used grid connected systems. Bisol produces photovoltaic modules, which are core elements of every PV system.
