Yes; That's a big part of the beauty of this whole concept...low start-up & overhead costs.
Between the initial research being mostly sponsored by universities (university pay-backs are in the form of licensing fees & likely a % of revenues), their raw materials costs are very low compared to silica and their disruptive tech uses less costly innovative manufacturing technologies.
Seems to me I saw somewhere that Squires was looking for $3 or $4M bucks to finance a cell production factory. Thats peanuts compared to the costs of 1st & 2nd generation tech.
Not sure of what-all a TQDot solar cell factory would be composed of but from what I've seen & read , it sounds like all [ ? ] they really need is a scaled-up printer (the more, the better) in a clean-room, with a fairly minimal number of staff to run the whole operation.
