Products and Services
We focus on the development of clean energy products. Since we started our business in 2001, we have developed hydrocarbon-based membranes and membrane electrode assemblies for proton exchange membrane fuel cells. More recently, we have expanded our focus for the production of polysilicon, a key material used to manufacture photovoltaic, or PV, cells, and PV system installations and related services.
We have developed, but are not currently conducting R&D, proprietary membrane electrode assemblies, or Hoku MEA, and membranes for PEM fuel cells powered by hydrogen
Hoku Materials is in the process of constructing a polysilicon manufacturing plant with planned capacity of up to 4,000 metric tons per year, with customer shipments planned to begin in the second half of calendar year 2009.
Hoku Solar is a provider of turnkey PV systems, offering installation services through direct sales, leases and power purchase contracts for commercial and select residential markets.
