Kyocera said it has crossed the 5 gigawatt (GW) milestone solar module production. 5 GW of power is equivalent to 3.5-kilowatt PV systems for more than 1.4 million homes. Kyocera has increased its annual solar production capacity to 1.4GW for its current fiscal year, up by 0.2 GW comparede to its previous fiscal year.
