Background of RSI
RSI has developed a proprietary process to manufacture solar grade silicon with a purity of 99.9999+% (6N’s). The manufacturing processes have been commercially in use for over fifty years.
Its founders recognized that the processing of solar grade energy was too expensive and dependent on the Siemens Process Methodology. RSI has rewritten the way to make solar grade silicon using proven processes from other industries. This new innovative methodology will assist many countries achieve their renewable energy goals by making Solar Energy a viable proposition for energy producers.
Technology
Dr. Steve Amendola developed the technology to use readily available inexpensive raw materials and off-the-shelf equipment. Combined with current Market Conditions, it is now commercially viable to use this technology to build solar grade silicon and ultimately build a global company that help address Environmental Concerns.
RSI’s Current Status
Dr. Steve Amendola, along with his experienced team, has commenced building the first plant. It is envisaged that production at the 1,000 metric tonne per annum plant based in Northampton County, Pennsylvania, will commence Q2 2009.
RSI anticipates completing a new plant in 2011 that will have a production capacity of 30,000 metric tonnes per annum, consisting of 6 new 5,000 tonne furnaces.
RSI is currently negotiating delivery contracts, subject to anticipated production schedules.
RSI’s Aims
RSI intends to be at the forefront in developing solar grade silicon technology as well as building a global company with strong ethics.
