PV companies transition to a terminal application


Much of Europe "dual" to combat the photovoltaic industry finally usher in the dawn. Following the 1000 PV enterprises in Europe appealed to waive sanctions on enterprises, domestic solar photovoltaic industry development policies to support the forthcoming news, confirmed by the Ministry of Industry.

According to foreign media reports, more than 1000 European photovoltaic products companies asked the European Commission to abandon impose punitive tariffs on Chinese solar companies on the grounds that: the European Commission for anti-dumping and countervailing duty investigations of the monocrystalline solar panel final decision on the implementation of punitive tariffs, European PV companies have a tremendous negative effect may hinder growth in the European solar industry.

"Although whether it will affect the decision still can not be predicted, but this will undoubtedly bring a touch of warmth to the Chinese photovoltaic solar industry." Zhuo record information, new energy analyst Li Ling Xuan, 22, told the Economic Herald reporter in September last year, the European Commission anti-dumping and anti-subsidy investigations on solar panels imported from China and was launched in November, and in June this year before and after the ruling. A domestic photovoltaic industry news compared to the winter plus a fire.

Ministry of Industry recently at a public meeting confirmed that, together with relevant departments to develop support solar panels china photovoltaic industry healthy development. Ministry of Industry and Electronic Information Division Ding Wenwu revealed that this opinion will promote the photovoltaic industry merger and reorganization related to industrial access and industrial policies to support the policy is expected to cover the subsidies, technological innovation, partition tariff. "The current development of photovoltaic industry is relatively difficult period, the release of the Ministry of Industry of the support signal, and brought hope to the industry.

Li Ling Xuan said, to encourage mergers and acquisitions help to improve industrial concentration, but also conducive to the further development of leading enterprises, will have a significant impact on an effective solution to excess capacity, promote technological innovation are the access threshold is not an administrative license, but the indicators around technology, production, environmental protection, and enterprises the ability to regulate, Li Ling Xuan move will help to curb the PV industry overcapacity, "should also establish a strict industry elimination system, eliminating the backward, to promote the healthy development of the industry. "

Hon Hai has received U.S. solar power plant system SunEdison large single


Hon Hai layout photovoltaic industry is making progress. April 24, Hon Hai's solar plant in Mexico FoxEnergy announced receipt of a solar power plant system SunEdison single, will be responsible for the supply 350MW (megawatt) solar modules.

Hon Hai 3C electronic foundries, in recent years actively cut into the field of solar energy, hoping to copy its mass production, economies of scale, expertise, and the orders, Hon Hai layout of the field of solar energy gains. Of particular note is that Hon Hai in the field of less than 1% of the market share, it is not easy to get big orders.

Hon Hai's Foxconn solar FoxEnergy of with the important semiconductor cum solar semiconductor supplier EMEC yesterday's mppt solar charge controller power plant system company SunEdison, the solar module supply agreement signed FoxEnergy to produce up to 350MW of solar modules at its factory in Juarez, Mexico, supplier to SunEdison. The the SunEdison solar module business group general manager GokulKrishnan said, FoxEnergy mining global manufacturing, local service "business model, SunEdison in high growth solar market block, closer and faster to provide high-quality modules to the customer, help reduce the cost of solar power.

United States push renewable energy tax saving case: solar photovoltaic soaring stock prices


U.S. solar stocks on the 24th in the Democratic Party, Republican Senator jointly launched under the Incentive Tax Credit bill renewable energy companies present rose trend. U.S. solar cell manufacturers Sun Power Corp. rose 10.45%, to close at $ 12.26, the highest since March 20 closing high. U.S. cadmium telluride thin film solar module manufacturer First Solar Inc. rose 11.82%, to close at $ 45.11, the highest since February 9, 2012 closing high. JinkoSolar (Jinkosolar HoldingCo.) Also rose by 15.34%, to close at $ 6.54, the highest since March 14 closing high.

Bloomberg, Platts and a number of foreign news agencies, Delaware Democratic Senator Chris Coons, Michigan Democratic Senator Debbie Stabenow, Senator Lisa Murkowski of Alaska, the Republican Party and the Republican senator from Kansas JerryMoran24 jointly proposed renewable energy business section Tax Act, solar panels energy, wind power generation industry to adopt the limited liability partnership (Master Limited Partnership, referred to as MLP) "framework.

The MLP system allows operators to fund-raising AG patterns, without class corporate tax, the shareholders dividend income two-tier tax rate, only need to pay personal income tax rate (Partner). The Tax Credit bill applies only to manufacturers of oil, natural gas, and the operation of the pipeline.

Murkowski said MLP system for petroleum, natural gas industry to be abundant and affordable energy for the United States, just a little change in tax law, you can get the same opportunities for renewable energy businesses. Murkowski earlier this week had said that the bill in the Senate, the House of Representatives are gained bipartisan support.

The proposal last (2012) year specifically for renewable energy co-biofuels program design, but in the end it was vetoed the bill quite similar. However, this weight? ? The new bill proposed to expand the scope of the system of energy-efficient buildings, waste heat into electrical energy (wasteheat-to-power), carbon capture and storage (the the Carbon Captureand Storage, CCS) technology, bio-chemical products and other renewable energy technologies are also summarized in within.

The proposal has the support of at least one oil and gas organizations. American Petroleum Institute (API) president Jack May 23 Gerard4, Bloomberg New Energy Finance Summit, said the agency supports the practice of the Congress, as this will assist in wind power, solar inverter industry to reach the goal of independent operations no longer need to rely on the federal everywhere government subsidies.

Domestic polysilicon industry a tough time


The person in charge of a domestic first-tier polysilicon manufacturers China Economic Times reporter, said the damage caused by the dumping of domestic polysilicon industry is very deadly, before sustaining operation, many manufacturers face of continued dumping forced to stop, even to the verge of bankruptcy discontinued involved has invested more than $ 50 billion.

He pointed out that after the Zhejiang Association into the silicon industry, Ningxia Sunshine have been declared bankrupt, should the domestic polysilicon industry is facing unfair international competition persists, the future will have more polysilicon solar panels   business down, or even a large number of fall. Europe, the United States and South Korea imported polysilicon "dual" preliminary landing, domestic enterprises as a key move to get rid of the domestic polysilicon industry development dilemma.

Insiders said that the short term, foreign manufacturers dumping to attract domestic demand, enterprises, these enterprises are short-term price good, but in the long run, once these foreign manufacturers successfully domestic polysilicon enterprises out of the market, will form uncontrollable hand shrouded trend, whether from Price or orders, will result in long-term control of the upstream and downstream enterprises, Chinese enterprises will be more passive.

The new U.S. Group polysilicon "dual" initiated by the Ministry of Commerce, the U.S. investment analysts have pointed out that China is likely not to polysilicon anti-dumping and countervailing duties, the reason is that this will be China's domestic solar silicon small solar panels imports from Europe, the United States and Korea film, batteries, and module suppliers and other downstream manufacturing impact. Another industry, however, believes that the Chinese the polysilicon manufacturer of technical, industrial scale with the main supply capacity, the collection of "dual" after tax, the Chinese polysilicon will become the main supply, and to keep prices flat to down, not only to provide raw materials for the photovoltaic protection, but will not increase the burden on the downstream.

For Europe, the United States and South Korea imported polysilicon "double reverse" preliminary specific time to announce the remaining suspense. Industry sources said the Ministry of Commerce or polysilicon dual preliminary time in June, meaning cards left by the EU in June photovoltaic products in China "dual" preliminary, other EU results and then determine. The analysts said that the polysilicon "dual" to the protection of the basic materials industry to sustainable development, to ensure adequate supply of domestic raw materials, to ensure price stability, but also the necessary move to maintain the domestic photovoltaic industry market order, such as early publication of the preliminary determination, direct inhibition of indiscriminate dumping of foreign manufacturers significant boost to domestic industry.

India intends to use local ingredients to restrict the import of solar panels


Government of India on Monday announced the proposed regulations, to develop the amount of subsidy and the launch of "buy India" command, to boost the sluggish domestic solar power sector, which is bound to conflict with the United States. India New Energy and Renewable Energy Joint Secretary Tarun Kapoor told reporters that the new rules will expand the range of "local content requirements", from the current crystalline silicon wafers extended to thin film solar cells.

This is likely to hurt the Indian solar power plants with foreign suppliers for most of the parts, but it should be able to provide some help for domestic malnutrition solar manufacturing. Solar manufacturing industry in the country due to cheap imports and constantly bleeding. Kapoor said the regulations are still in draft form and will be finalized in the coming weeks. The proposed regulations can be downloaded from the website of the Ministry. "We have listened to the views of all stakeholders." India is facing energy crisis, at least 400 million rural residents do not have access to any form of electricity, 90 million households still use kerosene for cooking and lighting.

The shortage of coal, oil and natural gas will require India to import the high cost of fossil fuels, increase the risk of inflation, leading to India's huge budget deficit under more pressure. India has been trying to develop environmentally friendly alternative sources of energy to meet the country's huge demand for electricity and reduce over-reliance on coal, and to encourage investment in wind power, Photovoltaic Panels, biomass and other renewable energy. India's state news agency reported that Prime Minister Manmohan Singh said in the fourth Clean Energy Ministerial Conference held last week by 2017 India's renewable energy capacity will be doubled, from 25,000 MW to 55,000 MW.

Singh announced the news of the serious cooling the occasion coincided with India's renewable energy sector. According to the report released by the non-profit research and policy organization Pew Charitable Trusts, in 2012 renewable energy investment in India declined by 45%, to $ 6.9 billion. In contrast, in 2012 China's clean energy sector investment amounted to $ 65 billion, an increase of 20% over the previous year.

In 2010, India launched a national plan, the Jawaharlal Nehru National Solar Mission, the goal is to have 2022 solar cell power installed capacity reached 20GW. The country has had some success, because the cumulative installed capacity of solar power has approximately 1466MW, when the task starts only 18MW. In February this year, India, in May 2017, the installed capacity of solar power generation will increase only eight times, more than 10,000 MW. The Government said at the time, be prepared to spend up to $ 1.1 billion in subsidies to achieve this goal.
According to the Pew Research Center report, India still a big gap from the goals.

In 2012, India's solar investment fell by 45%, to $ 2.3 billion. Last year, China's solar energy investment reached $ 31.2 billion, the highest in the world. India's solar industry struggling a key reason is that the cost of solar power is still high, solar, and the lack of sufficient and cheap technology in India. The federal government is trying to address these gaps with the proposed provision.


Solar inverter market annual growth rate of more than 10%


Swiss industrial group ABB will be about $ 1 billion to acquire solar enterprises Power-One to bet on emerging markets growth revival due to overcapacity and a drop in demand of the European market is raging departments.
The world's largest industrial electric motors and power grid supplier, said it has agreed to pay $ 6.35 per share in cash to the Power-One, which is the world's second-largest solar inverter manufacturer.

This offer represents a 57% premium to Friday's closing price of Power-One, though far below the 2010 high of 13 U.S. dollars / share. ABB said the growing energy demand (especially in emerging markets), rising electricity prices and the decline in the cost of pulling the small solar panels inverter market is expected to 2021 the annual growth rate will exceed 10%.

According to the report released by market research firm IHS solar inverter industry in 2012 total revenue of $ 7,000,000,000. Vontobel analyst said: "We believe that ABB timely expansion of its portfolio of solar products, the acquisition of Power-One is a very wise strategy." Recently, competitors, Germany's Siemens and Bosch joint venture shutting down the solar energy industry because nothing more than an oversupply of solar panels collapse in demand caused by the weak global economy and the reduction of government subsidies and prices have fallen sharply.

The world's largest inverter manufacturer SMA Solar, Germany recently reported 2012 operating income decreased by 58%, said the the competitors continued low-cost strategy will seriously damage its business. However, ABB said that the decline in the price of solar panels for sale power generation system and the rising cost of power means that the solar panels to become a competitive source of energy. The ABB Global Discrete Automation and Motion Control the business department Ulrich said: "Solar energy is the fastest growing renewable energy generation, we believe that this market Spiesshofer."

Spiesshofer the the ABB acquisition in this market, the reason is because it sees demand for solar power is transferred to emerging markets such as China and the Middle East market. "Some traditional markets, such as Japan, are also awakening to develop solar." Renewable energy is one of ABB's strategic focus. In 2011, the company acquired 35% of the shares in Germany Novatec Solar.

The day of the announcement, ABB shares rose 0.9 percent to 20.1 Swiss francs. SMA shares rose more than 10%. ABB CEO Joe Hogan said that the transaction should be able to increase net income. In addition, Hogan also revealed ABB intention to acquire the solar panels or equipment manufacturers. Sarasin analysts said the price seems a bit high, but the deal could generate profits in the future. Vontobel analysts said, the price is reasonable in view of the acquisition of the Target net cash position and positive cash flow from operations.

Argentina New Deal subsidies for the solar industry


In recent years, Argentina's domestic demand for electricity continued to grow steadily, projections indicate that the average annual growth rate of 6% estimated annual increase of about 1GW of generating capacity. Due to the high price of fossil fuels, and the environmental problems caused by fuel combustion attention, Argentina is working to create a new biomass, wind and solar energy industry system. Argentina in December 2006 by Law 26.190, the requirements should be accounted for 8% of the demand for electricity generated by the new energy to 2016. The Act requires the development of wind, biomass, small hydro, tidal energy, geothermal energy and charge controller energy.

However, many people in the industry pointed out that Argentina has a rich oil and gas resources, so there will not be too high a degree of enthusiasm for clean energy development; Argentina is not one of a number of G20 countries to submit emission reduction commitments to the United Nations, Argentina clean energyThe goal is not binding. Through access to information can be found very sound environmental policy in Argentina, close to the developed countries in Europe and the United States, have a higher green taxes and sewage charges; and environmental insurance, encourage the development of environmental protection and, more importantly, Argentina's oil situation is not optimistic .

Argentina's oil industry in the 1990s was the rapid development of Argentina as a major oil exporting countries of Latin America. However, due to the lack of investment in Argentina's oil production continuous decline since 2002; At the same time, Argentina's fuel imports showed a substantial growth trend, Argentina's energy imports in January 2013, Delta 7 billion U.S. dollars for the same period last year times. Related experts predict that the February imports will continue to maintain the upward trend of about $ 800,000,000.

Reported that, according to the 2013 budget, the Argentine state energy company for energy products imported $ 24.7 billion pesos (about $ 5 billion), but the current situation, there are shortfall of 220 billion pesos, the year is expectedexpenditure on imported energy will reach 47 billion pesos (about $ 9 billion). It is reported that the energy use of foreign exchange is one of the major expenditures consume Argentina's foreign exchange reserves. YPF oil company nationalized in 2012 when the government raised the target to reduce energy imports, energy imports in the second half of the year dropped 12%, but the final full year of foreign exchange for imported energy still reached $ 9.266 billion, the highest history of more than 2011 level of $ 9.397 billion is only 1.6% lower.

Argentine oil expert Fernando - Sosa pointed out that the appropriate government subsidies will certainly help ease the difficulties faced by the people due to high oil prices, but excessive government subsidies makes the Argentine energy policy challenges. Argentina's low oil prices are dependent on government subsidies. Argentina budget and public finance management committee published statistics show that last year, the Argentine government subsidies for the energy sector investment up to 83.3 billion pesos, an increase of 107% over 2006, accounting for about 60% of total government subsidies. Subsidized by the government to stabilize the prices of energy products, price stability play a role, but the Argentine government finances therefore face greater pressure. To continue to ensure that the subsidy policy, the Argentine government had a substantial increase in taxes.

Argentina has been in Latin America renewable energy development is relatively backward country, is based on the pressure of the environment and energy situation, this situation is changing. Argentina has a wealth of light, especially the eastern plains and western regions is the ideal choice for the development of PV inverter photovoltaic, Argentina has installed only a few dozen megawatts of solar cells, making it a huge untapped resource. The Government has set a target to solar power up to 3.3GW in 2020.

Interest alone is not hot domestic PV market


Install this Family photovoltaic power stations are generally interested, rely on this to make money, not fly. "Before Ningbo residents commented on the behavior of his self-built photovoltaic power plants. His remarks also revealed the plight of the current PV application market.

Since the launch of the a distributed photovoltaic Free access network services from the State Grid Corporation, the families have self-built photovoltaic power plants and network operation, self-occupied, I power online sale. However, the high cost of household photovoltaic power plants, lack of competitiveness, which restricts the promotion of domestic photovoltaic solar power inverter power plants. Family from Beijing, Shanghai, Shandong, Anhui and other self-built and grid photovoltaic power plant point of view, the project owners are basically the industry or photovoltaic fans ", the purpose of the establishment of the station or for scientific research, or interest, or for environmental protection.

It is understood that this power plant cost recovery period is generally more than 10 years, the longest and even that will take 20 years to recover the investment, and the life cycle of a  photovoltaic inverter power plant is only about 25 years, as a rational economic man is difficult to foot the bill. Now, these families the value of the photovoltaic power plant test significance and environmental demonstration effect, the economy's lack of decision difficult to scale. In addition, the lack of professional services market raised the threshold of the domestic PV market, PV power plant construction is a technology live, most people it is difficult to solve.

While reducing costs through subsidies and technological innovation, but also for the service model innovation, in order to effectively promote the development of this market. In the establishment of the PV market for professional services and service model innovation, we can learn from some of the practices of the U.S. leasing model. It is understood that this mode is similar charge to send phone calls, in order to reduce the threshold of household photovoltaic installation to help people save money. California nearly 75% of rooftop solar charge controller power system upfront costs are zero.

The good news is that the existing domestic enterprises in this regard a useful attempt. Yingli Group to set up a special company to promote the universal application of distributed photovoltaic power generation, and launched a consultation platform for distributed photovoltaic power generation, installation and consulting services. Some insiders even optimistic forecast, photovoltaic the B2C era has been the advent of. Ordinary consumers will be able to make a phone call to get all the installation issues, or go to the supermarket able to purchase the favorite of photovoltaic products, the early arrival of this day.

India asked the United States to prove its domestic PV subsidy legitimate


India has asked the United States to prove their legal requirements subsidies for renewable energy products, local production quotas, India believe that subsidies undermine global trade rules. According to Reuters, the complaint cited Michigan's renewable energy legislation, solar PV subsidy program in Los Angeles, California, self-generating plans and Texas commercial and residential solar power subsidies provided by Austin Energy.

The Chinese government has selected California, claiming that local production quotas to subsidize its start in 2011, discrimination against foreign companies. China also cited Washington, Massachusetts, Ohio and New Jersey. Unlike the U.S. and Chinese counterparts, the Indian manufacturer has specified that their main concern is the vulnerability of U.S. manufacturers are taking advantage of local production quotas in India subsidies operating in the country. To subsidize local production quota applies only to crystalline PV, not film.

That is, IHS iSuppli PV analyst Stefan - De Haan (Stefande, Haan) advocated widely accepted view: "The fundamental reason is that they enable film (U.S. manufacturers) can respond to local production quota requirements of the standard. Cadmium telluride ( CdTe) manufacturer First solar charge controller and Abound Solar in India a big reason for the success. "

Appeal to the domestic industry, the Indian government announced in March that it is to consider the bid of the second phase of the Jawaharlal Nehru National Solar Mission (JNNSM) to postpone the end of April or early May. Economic Times (Economic Times) reported that Indian manufacturers believe that the authorities are currently doing to support its domestic industry is not enough, claiming that "lay-off hair-trigger. The publication said that the industry is only 10% of the capacity operations, due to cheaper foreign imports.

Prime Minister Manmohan - Singh (Manmohan Singh) was held in Delhi on Wednesday the fourth Clean Energy Ministerial Conference delegates said that by 2017, India can their renewable energy capacity doubled to 55 000MW, urged foreign companies to set up facilities in India to increase its installed capacity. He said: "We have taken measures to develop non-traditional clean energy, such as solar module and wind power, and energy from biomass. Proposed our nation's renewable energy installed capacity is expected to double from the 25,000 MW in 2012 increased to 55,000 MW by 2017. "

Consulting firm in India the Harry RESolve - Manoharan (Hari Manoharan) believe that this goal is feasible: "Given the domestic solar task structure, and solar energy policies of many countries, I think the mppt charge controller installed capacity from the current 1.4GW doubled absolutely feasible. "Only Andhra Pradesh are set from the current round of auction 1GW installed capacity objectives. Tamil Nadu is expected to add about 220MW this year, therefore, in the next four years, solar energy installed capacity from double figures ought to be feasible. "

India New Energy and Renewable Energy Department data show that the national grid solar PV installed capacity totaling up to 1,447 MW. Prime Minister Manmohan Singh said: "India is the production of such equipment (solar) market has great potential, and it also has the potential competitiveness, provide an attractive production base for other countries."

From a global perspective, distributed generation photovoltaic applications mainstream. In 1997, the United States has announced a million how to build solar panels roofs program, Germany and other European countries has since introduced a photovoltaic subsidy policy, families to build power plants, government subsidies, and now distributed PV in Germany accounted for more than 80% of its generating capacity. In Europe and the United States, on the roof of the home to build a photovoltaic power stations, electricity suppliers to do the grid company is not a new thing. During the day in good weather, the roof of the PV power plant to work hard, to be issued for their own use, and sell surplus electricity to the power grid company.

Night, and then the power grid companies to buy electricity. Owners electricity sales is higher than the purchase of electricity, is one of the owners of income. Power purchase price, the owners sold the green electricity, subsidized sale of electricity price is higher than the second aspect of the owners gain. Basking in the sun, singing, sitting at home to make money. "Installed photovoltaic power generation system in Europe and the United States is not just a green fashion, but as a sound investment choice.

In China, as the government has introduced a series of policies to encourage distributed photovoltaic power generation ushered in the spring. Construction of photovoltaic plants on the roof, self-occupied more than electricity sold to the grid on the Internet to make electricity has become a reality. Since 2013, China's first household photovoltaic power plants in Qingdao and the grid.

Since then, one after another in Beijing, Xiamen, Shanghai, Nanjing and other household photovoltaic power plant system and network development, and gradually set off a tide of construction of distributed PV systems, more and more ordinary residents and businesses recover from the new producers and users of energy and environmentally friendly fashion, to become a "green electricity". We believe that distributed photovoltaic power generation will become the mainstream of Chinese PV applications, PV platform will also strive to promote the development of distributed photovoltaic applications in China to contribute to a force.

Household photovoltaic power plants for the roof


This photovoltaic power generation the most important source of energy is the sun. In order to facilitate the generation, General installation according to the location of the house and select the best lighting direction. Regardless roof bungalows or buildings, lighting and the best place. The majority of people live on the top floor in the city do not have time to take care of the roof, it sitting there. It sounds very unfortunately - instead it idle, it is better to put it utilized self-built home photovoltaic power plants.

Household photovoltaic power plant requirements for the roof, the most important thing is to know Xiaoqi Cheng weight capacity, especially the top of the European spire house. Solar panels can not be directly shelving roof, only through the bracket. And the roof load capacity of the wind turbine inverter are different, there may be fixed to the phenomenon of regional overweight. Build power plants, we must first find out own shingle below the load-bearing walls or reinforced concrete load-bearing beams exact location and roof panels bearing parameters.

These data can be obtained by residential property, get this data, you can accurately know the roof plane load-bearing capacity of the regional distribution, and what needs to be installed solar panel bracket, where not directly binding bracket. Different power, different types of solar panel Battery weight of each type. Any the HL appliance station solar panel power is 3 kW, with an average weight of 25 kg each block. The roof of the outermost layer is not thick laminates, cracking, once the overload is not impossible.

In addition to the load-bearing, wind load capacity of the roof is also a need assessment an important indicator of one. Beijing in early March has just suffered the baptism of the eight winds, summer and autumn, the southern city of Typhoon destructive power is not really small. This is often most overlooked small problem, REN Kai in the interview he was repeatedly raised. Case of total destruction of the house is small, but not small local destructive action of the wind. Of solar charge controller installed on the roof and brackets also belong to the roof of the local, occasional high winds struck it is not impossible.

In addition, solar panels and brackets security risks can not be ignored. Today, for aesthetics, most of the roof of the house are curved plate group or triangular pressure coefficient inconsistencies. Before installing the power plant, it should find the property inquired about the wind load capacity, then appropriate adjustments to the position of the solar panel. If you do not live on the top floor, then you can think about other places, such as the small yard or improvement of the balcony.

REN Kai converted house will be open on the second floor and the third floor balcony became enclosed sun room, glass selected amorphous silicon thin film batteries to power generation material, building integrated power mode. He felt that the possibility of power compared to the rooftop, sun room mode is more suitable for the majority of households in the city. As long as the glass part, if light can be converted into such power generation mode. However advantages and disadvantages: direct sunlight on the roof of a more vertical angle, the average conversion efficiency of 15%, while 7.5% of the conversion rate of the glass wall.

Find a good place to build their own power plants sun


Whether it is winter or summer, many people will be holding ambivalence while driving comfortable air conditioning figure body, while they increased electricity and increasing pollution and uneasy. But if these power from the PV power plant on the roof of his home, not only self-sufficient, but also pure green it?

In the Shunyi North near the small business, a sloping roof, the two balconies Triplex white townhouse. This building looks unremarkable house, recently there are many visitors - everyone wants to take a look at the the villa owners REN Kai construction of China's first self-built photovoltaic power plants. The ramp-up of the roof of the villa does not have direct access to the ladder, visitors to the third floor, like adventure down the makeshift wooden ladder to climb the roof to be able to close observation of the power plant: an area of ​​20 square meters 19 solar power inverter  The smooth panels leaning against the slope of the roof bracket, far looks like a mirror.

Because too many people come to visit the original occupancy rate is not high cell what became noisy, REN Kai friends even joked Zoo gorilla room. Although too many people come to watch the REN Kai a little surprised, but such a result he was very satisfied - at least, the first self-built home photovoltaic power plants dream became true.

"This is a very cool thing - he made no secret of doing the" first "proud. Ever since switched to PV Applied Materials in 2008 from a mobile phone brand, REN Kai's life just like new energy. His new understanding of foreign friends told him the thing about German household photovoltaic power plant project, such families photovoltaic power stations is actually very simple, mainly grid connected inverter installed on the roof, the electrical energy generated by the sun via an inverter to become household alternating current. REN Kai, roof, just buy the materials can be. Thus, a photovoltaic roof built in his home.

It is very good to achieve, and combines today's trend of environmental protection. Able to get the most unique experience, you can manufacture their own out of selling the electricity to the national grid. And implement it in the process is relatively simple, spend tens of thousands of dollars to install a home power station, from over on the day of self-sufficiency, it sounds great range of children, right? If you run into a power outage or forget to buy the electricity, you do not have to worry, spare power out on the line.

Advanced Solar Photonics photovoltaic components affixed with counterfeit UL certification


Famous American certification body "Underwriters Laboratories (UL) issued a warning to the the jurisdiction competent authorities, distributors, installers and users, said the market has been affixed with counterfeit UL certified PV modules counterfeit certification labelthese components have passed the UL1703 certification.

UL, the implicated components for the U.S. solar PV manufacturers and alternative energy systems turnkey suppliers AdvancedSolarPhotonics of, LLC's AP-240PK, AP-245MK and ASP-390M series. The UL that these components did not accept the UL testing, product quality can meet the safety standards of the United States and Canada remains to be seen. UL said, It is reported that these affixed with counterfeit UL certified components sold by SunWorksSolar, and may also be sold to other sub-sales market.

For the effective expansion of the domestic market, the National Development and Reform Commission will be introduced in 2013, the standard of distributed generation and large ground-based power plant electricity price subsidies. Industry insiders estimate that distributed spontaneous personal use of electricity subsidies for 0.35 million, more than power online to settle on a local coal desulfurization price. The large ground station Internet tariff is divided into four categories of 0.75 to 1. Although the subsidy standards in order to avoid overheating of the power plant investment is lower than the industry expected, but after many Chinese PV cheap solar panels suppliers eager to absorb some excess capacity, reduce the impact of "dual" in Europe and the United States, has been competing in the enthusiasm of local government support for squeeze into the field of photovoltaic power plants with a certain rate of return on investment.

Worth noting, however, to build power plants in the appropriate number of photovoltaic enterprises to participate may be a straw, but when too many companies to pull it useful? I'm afraid will become an industry crisis detonated fuse. For severe pressure of energy shortage and environmental protection, the development of photovoltaic solar inverter and other clean energy has become an important national policy in 2013 and even the future. 2013 China PV winter, but with a positive attitude to face the power of local governments locked in a cage, no longer blind duplicate construction, expanding domestic demand, eliminate weak competitiveness of enterprises, contracted capacity, which would be such as the English Romantic poet Percy Bysshe Shelley in "Ode to the West Wind" puts it: "If winter comes, can spring be far behind?"

The Chinese PV ability to learn to avoid the pitfalls Suntech lessons


Latest upward for the solar photovoltaic industry, the National Energy Board in 2015 installed capacity of power generation target of 35GW. Government regulatory agencies to make every effort to convince Grid Corporation allowed to meet the conditions of distributed photovoltaic power generation projects and networks, distributed photovoltaic power generation capacity target for 2013 for the 10 GW. However, excess production capacity in 2013 pattern does not appear fundamentally changed.

Shi Yubo, "two sessions", Deputy Chairman of the State Electricity Regulatory Commission, suggested that the government should pay attention to the planning of photovoltaic power generation, reasonably determine the phased goals, photovoltaic power generation and other power resources the ability to regulate adapted to match the grid system construction, concentration and dispersed development, try to consider local consumption, to avoid long-distance high-power transmission. The western region has built a large number of photovoltaic power generation system, it was suggested that the construction of UHV power transmission system as soon as possible to resolve the current nest electricity and timely transmission problems.

Zhu Changlin, general manager of Beijing Electric Power bluntly, do not rush to the promotion of photovoltaic power generation, we must first large-scale promotion of solar cell energy applications. The face of the predicaments of the photovoltaic industry, government stimulus appears to be some long overdue. But an objective analysis, in the hottest time of the photovoltaic industry in 2010, even sell stockings langsha, selling down jacket Bosideng Government encouraged to enter this field. Later, of course, see the miserable situation of these enterprises still awake, take the initiative to withdraw from. Even if the central government two years ago, the changes in the international market is expected to be able to accurately put in place ahead of stimulus measures to open up the domestic market, those accustomed to shot forehead of local government in the GDP-oriented way of thinking, and will definitely support continue to invest heavily photovoltaic industry, boost production capacity. The end result will still like now bad, and may be harder to clean up the mess.

March 20, Wuxi City Intermediate People's Court ruled that based on the "Bankruptcy Law" on Suntech bankruptcy reorganization. Wuxi League of Nations to take over some or all of Suntech. As of the end of February, the foreign currency credit balance of nine creditor banks Suntech has reached 7.1 billion. The Suntech catastrophe befell other reason than: management decisions often mistakes; does not consider the consequences of over-expansion; gained nothing in loss meters loopholes behavior. Of course, the blind support of the local government with the connivance of the blame. Rome was not built in a day.

Zhengrong Shi is not PV solar panel price prosperity and carried away a few years ago; if not the local government for the performance blind support, forcing several large state-owned banks and by virtue of the power of a number of huge lending; Europe and the United States "dual" worse; ... ... if it were not for these "if", Suntech may not be to such abjection. But the reality is the reality, the market is so cruel.

PV as a new energy industry, and its development in the world from not open the encouragement and support of their respective governments. However, many local governments in China means land, subsidies and loans entirely out of the black yarn promoted short-term administrative interests, which not only embodies the lack of market subsidy standards also led daring to dare to show contempt for the market - "do not wear underwear swimming naked in the sea ": irresponsible to spend money, rush on the project, rather than pre-thorough market research; did not focus on technological innovation; fall into the vicious circle of price competition, overcapacity.

In 2013 "two sessions", that is, "Shi Building collapse long ago, there are still several high-ranking officials of local government du jour to strengthen the rational support for local PV companies, plans to local "PV dream. The Suntech bankruptcy reorganization event on the future of the Chinese local government support hundreds of photovoltaic industrial park should be a wake-up call.

Poland intends to suspend solar photovoltaic


In view of the new plan to cut subsidies for solar photovoltaic, Poland implement the intent of the feed-in tariff has been put on hold. Deputy Minister of Economic Jerzy Pietrewicz said recently that he is the proposed amendment to the Renewable Energy in October this year, the draft focuses primarily on wind and biomass are suspended for the solar grid tie inverter photovoltaic program.

Bloomberg reported that since its inauguration in February, Pietrewicz said in his first interview on renewable energy: "We do not intend to give up support, but technological advances enable us to reduce the rates proposed in advance." Put forward in October 2012 proposal is called on the EU response to the adoption of the 2020 renewable energy targets. The Government aims to renewable energy installed capacity by 2020 from 2% to 15%.

The current situation (Click to view PV mppt solar charge controller previously reported), Poland will be not more than 100kW photovoltaic project feed-in tariffs and green certificates for 100kW to 2MW installation project. The feed-in tariff for 15 years, the subsidy rate of $ 0.337 higher than the German subsidies. However, the Government said that the National Renewable Energy support costs will further enhance the country's budget deficit. The government expects the 2020 national renewable energy support will be increased to 108 billion zlotys ($ 3.4 billion) in 2014 to 55 billion zlotys.

Bloomberg said that the first quarter of the government budget deficit widened to 2.5 billion zlotys, is the highest value in recent years.
Pietrewicz looking forward to the second half of 2013, the final draft is expected to be fixed payment for smaller projects, the establishment of a tradable green energy certificate system, and the establishment of a stable fund to maintain the value of the collateral.

According to Reuters, Libya aims to its production in 2020 20% of electricity from renewable energy sources. Quoted Libyan Minister of electricity, Reuters reported, according to this goal, the Libyan government is about to release tender for two solar power plants. The minister also revealed that the country is planning an electricity regulatory body to be established by the end of 2013. This action following several other African countries also promised more electricity from renewable energy sources. Libya lies among those countries, aimed at 40% of power generation from renewable energy sources by 2030.

2013 China PV industry applications VITRONIC
