Peter F. Varadi, after a scientific career, was appointed head of Communication Satellite Corporation's chemistry laboratory in the USA in 1968. In this capacity, he also participated in research on PV solar cells, which were used to power satellites. In 1973, he co-founded Solarex Corporation, USA, to develop the utilization of solar cells for terrestrial applications. Solarex was one of the two companies that pioneered this field. By 1983, it became the largest PV company in the world, when it was sold to AMOCO. Dr. Varadi continued consulting for Solarex for 10 years and then for the European Commission, World Bank, National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), and other organizations. In recognition of his lifelong service to the global PV sector, he received in 2004 the European Photovoltaic Industry Association’s John Bonda prize. His book Sun above the Horizon, which describes the meteoric rise of the solar industry, was published in 2014.
Meteoric Rise of PV Continues. New PV Markets Sustaining Mass Production. Financing. Present and Future PV Markets. The Impact of Solar Electricity. The Future of PV.
