Weak Japanese demand forces Panasonic to reduce capacity utilisation

Low demand is forcing Panasonic, Japan's largest photovoltaic manufacturer, to reduce its PV production. The cell factory in Osaka was closed in February. Its reopening will depend on the intensity of demand. The same applies to the production of panels. Shimane PV's cell production capacity utilisation rate has been reduced to 50%. This policy follows the 30% drop in cell sales in 2015 compared to 2014
