On July 21, Applied Materials (Santa Clara, California, US) announced that it will restructure its Energy Environmental Solutions Department (EES) to put a larger emphasis on crystalline silicon technology, and will discontinue production of its SunFab lines, which manufacture thin-film solar cells. Applied Materials says the restructuring will cost USD$375 to USD$425 million, but that it expects the move to decrease annual costs by USD$100 million and restore profitability to the department in 2011.
