Revenue? Licensing fees?

Has the chinese companies recieved panels from Natcore and used them to develop their own tech? Or is licensing fees coming in?

"When asked about timing, Chuck Provini said, “We’re sending 40 wafers with a black silicon coating to a solar cell manufacturer in China. The Chinese company will complete the solar cell process. We think they’ll then have a solar cell with the same efficiency as their current solar cells, but it’s going to cost them 23% less to make it. That step will probably be done by the end of January 2014. Then we will have shown that our black silicon process will keep the same efficiency but cut production costs by 23%. That is something we think we can go to market with. “One of the members of our Science Advisory Board is Dr. Daniele Margadonna, who was the CTO of MX Solar in Italy. Daniele has built many turnkey photovoltaic plants and has bought tens of millions of dollars of equipment from the three major solar equipment manufacturers in Germany. “We’ll work with Daniele to take our results to these German manufacturers and ask them to build a piece of equipment using our technology that can be sold to solar cell manufacturers. If we get the results that we’re hoping for in China, we’ll begin knocking on doors after the first of the year. When does that turn into revenue? I suspect our first source of revenue will be some sort of licensing agreement with either an equipment manufacturer or a solar cell manufacturer, and I’m confident that this will happen in 2014, perhaps even within the first six months of 2014.”
