Territory of the global PV inverter market is expected to shift to emerging markets shaken


According to the latest report released GTMResearch revealed that because of the continuous development of low-cost Asian companies, the European PV inverter manufacturers are finding their profits shrinking. Growing competition also comes from the diversified group.

Overall, changes in global demand will continue to "torture" the PV inverter supplier. Another important factor is that the process of commercialization of advanced technologies, such as modular power electronics (MLPE).

According to the current situation of the PV market weakness and oversupply of products, profit margins will shrink further this year. As the average price of PV inverters, the downward trend will continue. 2012, the price is $ 0.22 per watt, the price is expected to decline further in 2016 to $ 0.14 per watt, which means annual reduction of 10%.

2012 year, the major markets continue to clear channel inventory, shipments in the European market further stagnation. Looking to the future, GTMResearch expects China, Japan and the United States and other major emerging markets, shipments will increase.

The report predicts that by 2014, with the edge of life and death struggle with inverter suppliers out of the market, the market will be integrated dc to ac power inverter  Emerging markets will dominate the 2015-2016 strike, GTM predict these markets shipments will appear soared.

In addition, GTMResearch released report, "2013 Global PV inverter prospects: technology, market and survivors," the report lists the world's top ten PV inverter business. The following ranking is based on product supply, financing and growth prospects and other factors to be sorted.

China PV inverter market or business opportunities


2012 for the photovoltaic industry is not calm year, this year there have been many significant events deeply affected the pattern of the PV market. It is also a brilliant year, the PV industry to achieve an important goal milestone.

According to the European Photovoltaic Industry Association (EPIA) in the February 2013 release of "2012 Market Report," said the 2012 global PV cumulative installed capacity has more than 100GW, which 10 years ago no one had predicted. Entered in 2013, Switzerland's leading photovoltaic inverter manufacturer Sputnik Corporation(Solar Max) CEO christophvon Bergen on the development prospects of the global PV market, as well as the status of the Chinese market share with readers his views.

PV markets are interrelated, global markets were hit by the economic fluctuations and the impact of recession, but the affected time and affect the way but not the same. For example in 2012, the European region for installers and system integrators demand growth, but the local solar cell and module manufacturers has gradually lost market share.

Since some countries may advance phased out or significantly reduce the feed-in tariff subsidy policy, the European PV market prospects for the near future is not yet clear, but Europe in the coming years will be more and more use of renewable energy generation, we see European markets still exists great potential in the future.

Europe, of course, there are uncertainties in the market, but I believe the second half from 2013 to 2014, the European market will eventually rebound. Today's technology is moving towards a more efficient, more competitive direction, as technology continues to continuous innovation, PV will become the future of Europe's major source of electricity and energy markets is an important part.

European Photovoltaic Industry Association recently in May 2012 released "for 2016 global PV market expectations," the report pointed out, it is expected that by 2016, global PV installed capacity will increase by at least one fold to 200GW, and may even grow to 340GW. The report also highlighted that the global PV market structure is changing. 2011, the European market leading position in the global market, the annual new installed capacity accounted for 75% of the global total.

But in 2012 the situation has changed, the emergence of emerging markets intensified competition in the market, the European market growth rate to slow down, while South Africa, India, Thailand, Saudi Arabia and South American countries, including intelligence, Mexico and Brazil and other emerging markets, all have been introduced to encourage policies and measures to bring their capacity showed a rapid upward trend.

PV inverter has become a very hot research field


Professor Frede Blaabjerg too inverter which several review articles have reached nearly 1,000 reference number, which in the field of power electronics has been astonishing. And when he was the IEEE Power Electronics Technology (Transaction on Power Electronics) editor in the past few years, the PV inverter has become a very hot research field.

Personally, I think the article is very accurate prediction, since 2008 Enphase company introduced the first commercial product, the micro-inverter begins to be academic outsiders who know the company by virtue of its advantages in Silicon Valley development is very rapid expansion financing fast, then quickly followed several other brands compete. First, wait several major brands, recently began the layout of the micro-counter market.

Industry leader SMA bought the micro inverse Pioneer OKE-Services product platform OK4ALL, and thus developed a micro inverse products SunnyBoy 240. This product is currently only available in the United States of SMA website you can see, the specific time is unknown. Power One also in 2011 launched its own micro-counter products Aurora Micro.

Micro-inverse can improve system efficiency, since each module is equipped with an inverter, the mismatch loss between the components (mismatch loss) can be eliminated. However, due to the inverse price higher than the current micro-string grid tie power inverter times, even if the total generating capacity of slightly higher cost of repayment of the system time (payback time) also no advantage.

In fact, there is an inverse micro big advantage is that installation is easy and safe to do, according to some of the PV system design UNSW alumni, currently the latest Australian standard AS 5033 installed PV installation on the micro inverse relaxation of many requests, but due to the voltage levels decreased, workers feel more secure installation. This may be the future of this technology to develop new markets major advantage.

The future of PV inverter assembly


PV inverter market recently surging, April 22, ABB came news of the acquisition of Power One vibration industry. People have speculated that the electrical equipment giant and the world's second largest manufacturer of photovoltaic inverters marriage of what changes will bring the photovoltaic industry. With the major components of the market giants leave the flesh is different inverter market is indeed acquisitions frequently.

In early April, the Photon magazine was a very eye-catching German dc to ac power inverter manufacturer REFUsol acquisition by the U.S. company Advanced Energy late last year, the acquisition of the domestic industry a brother SMA cable manufacturers MeV love. The major manufacturers in the direction toward the bigger and more powerful strides, coupled with China's western photovoltaic "leap forward", some domestic manufacturers that "one hundred kilowatts below the small loom we simply do not do it."

Compared with the component, the inverter technology innovation more slowly. Especially large inverter (utility-scale inverter) each topology (topology), control methods, switching devices are similar, but the stability of the product and the actual efficiency is need long-term experience in engineering design. On the other hand, large-scale projects also need to do this kind of technical support for localization, marketing, government relations, financial support, the future winner in doubt, but the multinational giants have been ahead of others in several ways.

But it is an entirely different story in academia, laboratories inverter is getting smaller and smaller. Engage in research of PV inverters should have read Frede Blaabjerg, Denmark Aalborg University professor and his students to write about the PV inverter (PV inverter) review articles.

The article mentioned the inverter a trend, a large central inverters (centralized inverter) is already very mature past tense, then (2005) is more popular string type (string inverter) and communication components (AC module) / micro-inverters (micro-inverter), the future trend will be the exchange of components or even AC battery (AC cell).

Tibet within four SANGRI end turns photovoltaic power plants generate electricity history


In the new energy power generation project department SANGRI operation and maintenance personnel and maintenance staff of the joint efforts of the company, the photovoltaic power plant in Tibet SANGRI Kang Kang electrical wiring becomes permanent access 110kV becomes red, marking the official end of photovoltaic power plants SANGRI the rotation power history.

Through the power station site protection, automatic devices, communication devices and other equipment for thorough and rigorous grid once the system installation and commissioning of equipment and net comprehensive and detailed examination, at 12:05 on May 9, Tibet's first PV plant SANGRI inverter and power generation, the end of the territory of Tibet SANGRI four photovoltaic power plants generate electricity by turns of history, solve the problems of the great challenges to increase power plant.

Photovoltaic power plants in Tibet SANGRI perform a rolling power generating capacity over the past year cumulative loss of more than 600 million kilowatt hours since become permanent access Chek Kang after year is expected to increase power 3.6 million kwh. Currently in Germany and Europe are still on the decline of the photovoltaic industry much debate, but it has been presumed guilty parties: Chinese photovoltaic products manufacturer. EU anti-dumping proceedings are being considered under the framework of the Chinese PV product suppliers impose punitive tariffs. Chinese solar products manufacturer was accused by the government subsidies, with cheaper products offer will destroy all other competitors.

In fact, is a worldwide surplus production capacity of photovoltaic panels has led to fierce competition. Currently the world about 60 million kilowatts of photovoltaic panel production capacity, but sales were only 30 million kilowatts. Competition naturally follow. All businesses are struggling to survive, many companies have fled. The most famous event is the German Bosch and Siemens have quit this field.

However, a large number of American and Chinese manufacturers are suffering torment. In this industry, all businesses are not making any money, only in the books on the record deficit. This situation will always continue until the end of the market reshuffle. Of course, there is another possibility, that is, open up new markets, thereby increasing sales. Who are the victims of this tragic competition? Industry as a whole, or a part of the industry, or some product manufacturers http://www.gridtiepowerinverteronline.com/. Sweeping accusations not correctly solve the problem.

Corona introduced several PV inverter products


May 14, 2013 -16 days, Beijing Corona carry several inverters participated in the seventh SNEC International Solar Industry and Photovoltaic (Shanghai) Exhibition and Forum, at the conference, to Corona its leading technology, lowering the attitude, the better the product as well as its absolute EPC strength in the show exudes a unique charm, once again attracted wide attention.

This exhibition, the company debuted KNEC750-500LVA storage modified sine wave inverter  which exhibits designed specifically for smart grid, accepting grid scheduling in grid systems advanced "anti-islanding" Run control technology, designed for multi-types of energy storage device, using a wide range, along with a solitary network system independent networking capabilities, with battery float, constant current charging

Constant voltage, constant power charging and other functions, with Ah discharge pressure limiting discharge, constant power discharge, constant current discharge mode, low voltage ride through, reactive power compensation and other functions, which can effectively improve system stability and reliability . I believe in the future of power plant construction, played a crucial role. In addition, a small company for international inverter market has also been related to the products, the company developed three sets of small inverters also attracted considerable attention.

Corona Institute of Electrical Engineering at thirty years of technical precipitation, the current has become a major supplier of inverter http://www.gridtiepowerinverteronline.com/, by virtue of the pursuit of intellectual property rights and the importance of photovoltaic systems integration company in the domestic industry pivotal in the performance show regard, several pioneering history first.

2012, built the largest Shuiguang complementary micro-grid power station, the station is the national Golden Sun Demonstration Project, is Taiwan's first megawatt Shuiguang complementary micro-grid power plants. Branch with technology, Novo in nature, Corona new energy in the future will continue to lead the industry in the road, continue to move forward.

How to select an inverter with high power output


In the photovoltaic power plant system, the inverter costs less than 8%, but it is a power generation efficiency of the decision-maker in photovoltaic power plants, when exactly the same components and other accessories, choose a different inverter, the system's total power generation capacity 5% to 10% of the difference. After successful installation of energy generation system, the inverter has become a decisive factor. So an experienced manufacturer, would choose a high total generating capacity inverter, the increased efficiency of the entire system.

The relatively high content of inverter technology that integrates electrical, electronic, structural, thermal design, control as a whole. Manufacturers and plant owners to make EPC dc to ac power inverter have become experts, is clearly not possible. In this paper, the basic parameters of the inverter "output voltage", so that we understand the inverter parameters are different because of this case, the amount of power the inverter of the change.

Now the domestic power plant inverter, the output voltage is 270V and 315V are two common 270V output power level has 250KW, 400KW, 500KW, common 315V output power level has 315KW, 500KW, 630KW. From the standpoint inverter, 315V inverter output 630KW, 500KW hardware and 270V output inverter exactly the same. So the same power level inverter, 315V output voltage of inverter output voltage than 270V inverter costs are about 20% lower, and the higher the voltage, the smaller the current, the efficiency will be higher.

But from the system generating capacity considerations, to take full advantage of solar modules, inverters crystal Fuyuan R & D engineers recommend choosing 270V output inverter. Because the inverter to carry out the project before the crystal Fuyuan research engineer told photovoltaic power plants at home and abroad more than 50 on-site visit, I found 630KW inverter generating capacity and no more than 20% more 500KW inverter. Only less than 15% increase.

Through theoretical analysis and field analysis, we found 630KW inverter MPPT range from 500V to 820V, and 500KW on grid inverter MPPT range is 450V to 820V. This is the middle 50V voltage difference, generally through a multi-string twelve components to solve. But in fact, encounter rainy days, the voltage between 450V to 500V still have more time. So the total power generation time, which is 10% more than the former.

http://deco81231007.blogspot.com/2013/06/xu-new-photothermal-chinese-dream-to.html


Known to the public just solar water heaters solar thermal industry throughout the tip of the iceberg. Solar thermal applications are divided into low, medium temperature, high temperature three levels, solar water heaters are low application level. "For the public there is a certain degree of misunderstanding solar, many people believe that civil and industrial solar hot water project, in fact, our energy, thermal power generation and other applications has just started, is currently in transition from one hundred billion to one trillion market forward opportunity. "

Xu said the new, the current competition in the market is mainly concentrated in the low-temperature field, not in the high-temperature industrial, technological urgent need to upgrade; category competitive urban markets, such as with gas, electric water heater competition; currently local rural market potential is limited, the industry into stable growth period.

Future solar thermal industry a new growth point in the high-temperature fields. "Low-temperature applications are hot water, heating; medium temperature is 100 ~ 150 , high-end use, can be used for air conditioning and refrigeration, industrial drying, desalination, etc.; temperature is 150 ~ 240 , but also to the 1000 , can be used to grid connected inverter thermal power generation. "said Xu new. Sunrise Oriental Board Secretary Liu said, sunrise roadmap has been very clear: from the solar water heaters to solar water heating systems, to solar thermal energy (including heating and cooling), to solar thermal power, from water heater manufacturers to energy suppliers upgrading and restructuring.

Market prospects for high temperature, Xu said the new analysis, the market is one hundred billion market low, the temperature is one trillion market by drying plant, desalination and a series of technological breakthroughs to further expand the market space. Temperature field, despite saying now is not mature enough, but this market in the future is to be expected.

China Solar Energy Industry Association Professional Committee of solar thermal Luozhen Tao introduced, said China's current areas of application of solar thermal utilization is still low. Paper, food, tobacco, wood, chemical, pharmaceutical, textile, plastics, etc. Most of the eight sectors with hot temperatures between 80 to 250 degrees, to make solar energy in this industry must be successfully applied in the core functional components to achieve high solar temperature.

Although the high temperature heat utilization key technology R & D and production has also made great progress, but in the high-temperature solar thermal utilization in the construction and industrial applications are not many high-temperature thermal inverter charger thermal power generation will be the ultimate goal of development using industry .

Xu new photothermal Chinese dream: to lead the photovoltaic industry major upgrade


Mention solar energy, the public first thought is "solar water heater" and "photovoltaic", the former has entered every household, a public necessities; since last year due to the latter suffered successive foreign "double reverse" measures concern.

In our country into the European solar PV "double reverse" on the occasion of the dispute, another solar energy solar thermal industry, is ushering in upgrading a good opportunity. "Not only for grid tie inverter thermal water heaters, can be used for air conditioning and refrigeration, industrial drying, desalination, so that solar thermal power generation, we must break through the boundaries of existing solar thermal industry."

Recently, as the industry leader sunrise Chairman Xu in 2013 Seventh China New Energy International Forum and the Third China New Energy Fair "Daily Economic News" interview, proposed a "great light hot" industry Upgrade thinking. In his heart has always been an industry serve photothermal Chinese dream. This is the light and heat at the core, fusion-related industries, to achieve leapfrog upgrade the solar thermal industry bigger and stronger so long to become a global influence, by the world respected national industry.

China's solar thermal industry, originated in college, began in private capital, mature in the market operations. Initially, the lack of support and capital influx in the case, the industry along its own trajectory, free to grow, mature, and therefore a lot of people called grassroots industries.

Earlier due to market-oriented, solar thermal, from obscurity to the world's first, only 20 years time. According to Xu newly introduced solar thermal industry is the Chinese people created out of independent innovation, China vacuum tube solar master core technologies with independent intellectual property rights, are rare in our country globally competitive industries.

According to official data, China's micro grid tie inverter collectors to maintain accounts for more than 76% of the world, China is the world's largest manufacture and use of solar thermal power. Needless to say, solar thermal industry has become today's Chinese national industry in international competition model. China Renewable Energy Society, vice president Mengxian Gan said, and other new energy development path different from China's solar thermal industry beginning to enter the market mechanism which has a good market base, the industry's development prospects, and solar energy heat utilization industry's contribution to the affirmation by the government.

Parity against the European Union European Union on Chinese solar PV taxed



The European Commission recently announced that from June 6 to August 6 PV products in China involved in the case of 11.8% imposed provisional anti-dumping duties. This would not only lead to China's strong protests in Europe, there are many dissenting voices, which represents more than 600 PV companies in Europe, "European Union cheap solar" (AFASE) sound particularly noticeable. In February this year, "Global Times" reporter in the Alliance's news conference, the first time I saw the alliance leader and spokesman Torsten general Ignatius Shas. His resounding speech, strongly opposed to the European Union on Chinese PV products taxed words to reporters leaving "Gladiator" impression.

Not long ago, reporters in Brussels before the EU headquarters building, and saw members of his organization AFASE representatives held a "ruined by 200,000 jobs," the march to protest the European Union on Chinese PV products taxed along the way to attract a lot of pedestrians stopped asking. At that time, the general Ignatius Shas crutches stood in the middle of his leg injured in a road accident recently. Injured continue this "anti-PV taxation," the German "fighter", why firmly support the Chinese PV companies? Recently, the general Ignatius Shas in Brussels to accept the "Global Times" reporter an exclusive interview.

European PV companies will become the dispute "guilt victim" Global Times: Why the European Commission insisted on Chinese PV products anti-dumping duties? Within Europe on the Chinese PV companies taxed, why are there two different voices?

Shas general Ignatius: The European Commission imposed on China by 11.8% of the provisional anti-dumping duties, is an extremely short-sighted diplomacy. EU Trade Commissioner De Gucht that "support for monocrystalline solar cell Union" and "Solar World" organization on behalf of the European Photovoltaic business interests, he keeps saying that the Chinese PV products anti-dumping duties, is to give the EU raising the output of photovoltaic products manufacturer But taxation does not help European companies.

Because European companies can not provide prices to meet market demand, but also did not meet the European market for the growing production of photovoltaic products demand. He did so only one result is that buyers of PV products will flow to other countries. The biggest winner of this tax is not European manufacturers, but exports to the EU of solarpanels manufacturers in other Asian countries.

Our greatest fear is that the European PV companies will become the dispute "guilt victim." Two different voices reflect different interests chase. European solar panel manufacturers have their interests, which represents more than 600 compared to our European business interests, it is too light.

Germany to become the world leader of solar power


According to foreign media sources, the German economy minister Wolfe said recently that the country hopes to become a world leader in the field of solar energy, not only in the use of solar energy, but also in solar technology, although frequent cloud cover in northern Germany.
   
   But asked to northern Germany, located at latitude 52 degrees, a daily two-thirds of the time for the cloud cover, the minister said, do not necessarily have the best conditions for cheap solar panels energy utilization can become solar energy capital. The minister said in Berlin during the Cold War lost most industrial base, and now its full development of solar energy industry. Berlin concentrate large forces do photonics research, more than the rest of the country is much larger force.
   
   The minister said that they focused on solar energy for a long time, as the world's attention on climate change, which has great potential in Germany in the world are so. They want to become a heavyweight in the field of solar energy.Currently the German solar market growth rate of 25% and more, the industry is not before stopping for industrial development of the city has a special appeal. He expects the next 20 years of development will be more than 10 times now, thanks in part to attract investors and researchers plan.
   
   According to the law of the country in May to reduce solar support, so enthusiastic possible to eliminate the fear of investors in the country. The new German Energy Act (EEG) has maintained support for new energy sources. It was copied using a number of countries, the gist is: a guaranteed fixed price for solar investors, utility companies purchase electricity duty high tariffs.
   
   The bill helped Germany to become the world's largest solarpower producer and photonics technology country, half the world's solar electricity from Germany.Berlin in the field currently has 10,000 job, while 10 years ago, almost nothing.The Minister believes that the field in 2018 to turn 10 Fan.
   
   Berlin during division lost traditional industries, after the fall of the Berlin Wall, they did not simply recover, but the catch-up of new industrial areas, such as optoelectronics, in the field they are very creative. Germany 2007 installed capacity of 2.7 million kilowatts installed solar power, enough to provide electricity to 1 million households, almost doubled compared to 2006. Germany, about 14% of its electricity from new energy sources. By 2020 they want this figure reached 30%.
   
   Some local research institutions to join the Berlin Hahn - Meitner Institute, is studying film technology to cut costs. They will film material structure becomes lighter, can be installed on the wall like a more complex architecture. 

Honda began exporting solar cells


It is reported that Honda will work through local solar vendors and residential construction business cooperation, the wholly-owned subsidiary Honda Soltec solar cells produced are exported to Germany and other places. Currently, Honda Soltec's annual production capacity equivalent to 27,500 kilowatts, and is planning to expand production capacity to meet the export business.

   As an important part of the new business, Honda began to get involved since last October field of solar cells. As Japan's domestic demand growth stagnated momentum, while Europe and other places that established the system of support for solar power, the market is expanding rapidly, Honda decided to vigorously explore the overseas market, the export business of solar cells on track assoon as possible.

Market share, about the entire solar thermal utilization 20-50%. According to the European Commission issued the "Energy Future: Renewable Energy," White Paper, by 2010, the EU will install 100 million square meters of solar collectors, solar heating system, which will account for 19 million square meters. China has the world's largest solar panel manufacturers thermal market, conservatively estimated at about 40% of the world in which solar hot water system is almost 100%.

In recent years, China's building energy consumption declining heating, solar thermal products performance and increasing solar heating gradually attention has been paid, in Beijing and other places have been built some solar heating projects, such as Beijing Tsinghua Solar corporate offices, Beijing Solar Energy Research The office building, Beijing Pinggu new rural village residences. Some of these items using U-shaped pipe vacuum tube collectors, some using heat pipe vacuum tube collectors, others use flat-plate collectors, system design different, have different features, and more from self-designed solar thermal companies installation, mostly without the involvement of architectural design units.

   Compared with the situation abroad, our technology is relatively backward, solar heating system is designed mostly remained at the level of simple estimates, not mature, complete or software design methods, while China's energy situation was worsening, and solar energy resources than to be rich in many European countries, therefore, an urgent need of solar heating technology has been further developed.

Qingdao PV companies' price minus one "Response buffer period


"From March to enter the retroactive period, orders began to decrease, to the present, down 60% according to the EU anti-dumping tax rate announced by walking, the consequences could be disastrous." Chong Ming Qingdao New Energy Co., Ltd. Wangzhong Feng told reporters that at present, the EU Market share of exports accounted for only 5% of companies, and crumbling.

From June onwards, the European Union on Chinese solar panels china and key components, formal expropriation 11.8% of the provisional anti-dumping duties.September 2012 began, the anti-dumping investigation, released the survey list, additional retroactive period, one thousand pleading letter to European enterprises, opinions split vote, the EU PV "anti-dumping" almost become a "drama." Until 4 June, the European Commission announced to impose provisional anti-dumping duties, and said that if Europe fails to August 6 reach a solution, the anti-dumping tax rate will rise to 47.6%.

Qingdao photovoltaic enterprises have "heartbroken." "Price minus one" has become the only option for most enterprises, while the share of the EU market depleted. Qingdao PV companies on the one hand through the "reprocessing" circumvent "anti-dumping" on the other hand will be the market focus shifted to Africa, Latin America and other emerging markets. As for the future, they are more looking forward to is "distributed" to bring the domestic market, Kai.

11.8% behind what it means for photovoltaic enterprises in Qingdao? "This rate means that the two choices: either to maintain the original price, the cost of corporate tax rates themselves; either the rate of cost increases will be added, but that would mean that orders will be substantially reduced." Qingdao Hailin Electronic Materials Technology Co., Ltd. Manager Yang Yong said that the current situation in terms of the PV enterprises in Qingdao, a very grim.

Appears to have two choices, but in the current market environment is not optional. According to Wang Zhongfeng revealed that at present, the export of PV modules Chong Ming margins are simply "no water", bear a direct tax rate of 11.8% means a loss. Enterprises to raise prices to survive, meant a sharp decline in orders. 3 to 6 months, corporate EU orders fell 60%. Not only is the downstream component enterprises, PV 
solar cell efficiency upstream industry reshuffle is also extremely cruel, Hailin Electronic engaged in cutting fluid production, according to Yang Yong said recently, many peers bleak exit. 

This is the common difficulties photovoltaic enterprises in Qingdao. According to sources inside the line, export enterprises in Qingdao PV modules is less than 15, more than in the turnover of between one million and ten million, and the profit margins of PV modules is only about 10%. This means that PV companies in Qingdao tax rate of 11.8% after the encounter, "price minus one" became the only helpless choice. "A few months ago, from March 6, photovoltaic retroactive period starting price of the product exported to the EU have been quietly upgrading the corporate tax rate slowly added to the list." Nortel Energy Co., Ltd. Deputy General Manager of Qingdao Wang Fan representation.

However, price increases but "in perpetuity." "11.8% might be able to talk with customers, sharing, but has been troubled if August, rose to 47.6%, then there is no room for maneuver, and we with local products in Europe compared to the complete loss of competitiveness." an unnamed Qingdao Solar traders told reporters recently that he continued to receive the wind, Jiangsu and Zhejiang area, small PV "closures wind" blowing open for Qingdao him worried.

Production and marketing of photovoltaic double reverse to avoid the risk diversification


Than expected as early as two days the deadline, the European Commission announced the evening Beijing time, the European Union since June 6 onwards on the production of solar panels from China and key components of 11.8% imposed provisional anti-dumping duties. If the two sides failed to reach a solution within two months, then the tax rate will rise to 47.6%.

Deepest feelings, is living in one of the PV in the enterprise. Recently, China's first landing NASDAQ sunlight photovoltaic 
mppt solar charge controller power integrated enterprise Artes CEO Qu Xiaohua told reporters, about the Chinese PV companies face the growing tension in the external environment, indomitable Industrial bigger and stronger heart. 
Final: or transit

Reporter: EU levy punitive tariffs, will be on as the representative of China in Artes enterprises how it hurts? Qu Xiaohua: U.S. "double reverse" only for the battery, but the EU's "double reverse" survey include the source of the polysilicon , until the final silicon PV modules, therefore, the EU Chinese PV products, "dual", not only for China, the global PV 
monocrystalline solar panel industry will give a devastating impact. China PV industry directly employed population over 50 million, driven indirectly employed population over 100 million people. Anticipated large PV companies will be in trouble. 

However, the first two months of anti-dumping duties imposed lower for Chinese enterprises and China and the EU to provide a buffer period of consultation, but also for future negotiations to open two sides of the window. Is worth noting that the preliminary ruling procedure and the different aspects of the final ruling is of decisive significance of the voting members, so the next two to six months, is still two sides to negotiate the critical period.

Reporter: For a country's "dual" will almost certainly cause the other side of the trade counter, causing a trade war. In most member states are opposed to the case, the European Commission why do they still insist? Qu Xiaohua: Chinese PV starting from a blank, decade, more than 60% of the global market. This achievement is the Chinese enterprises in the market of others, in accordance with the standards of others to enjoy subsidies others developed step by step, and also to create a highly competitive international PV enterprise group.

Industry in China, able to score much more than this. Great achievements have envied, had adopted a "dual" approach to stop it. U.S. and European pressure on the Chinese PV industry is to limit its development, the desire to surpass China in the emerging field of energy has achieved a leading position. EU thinks through the "dual" can beat Chinese rivals, but only shooting itself in the foot, dog in the manger.

IMEC organic solar battery life extended release new method


European independent nanoelectronics research center IMEC's ​​laboratory IMOMEC recently discovered a stable form of organic solar cell nano new method, this method allows the lifetime of organic solar cells based on the original vastly improved. This breakthrough discovery on the market today organic solar battery life will reach more than 5 years, more than 10% efficiency.

   Organic photovoltaic wind turbine inverter rely mainly on the activities of its nano form the active layer can be a mixture of the organic photoelectric conversion. IMEC previously published P3HT: PCBM structure Although power generation efficiency of the solar cell close to 5%, but for the current market, its life is relatively short.

Practice has proved that, based on organic semiconductor materials for solar charge controller cell performance degradation after prolonged use, the reason is due to the organic mixture is separated into different states eventually led to the photoelectric conversion rate of decline. IMEC noted that the separation and the organic polymer in this state related activities, their activities once stable shape, the extended battery life.

   IMEC / IMOMEC experiments found that the use of new conjugated polymer type organic bulk heterojunction solar cells, after 100 hours of use, efficiency remains unchanged, which means the solar battery life greatly improved, but its power generation efficiency nearly 4%.

European solar R & D personnel optimistic crystalline silicon solar cells


IMEC crystalline silicon technology is still developing in the solar cell highlight of this one, but also in trying to adopt IMEC silicon thin film, composite materials and a group of materials for solar cell technology. "Crystalline silicon solar cells in the solar cell market share of 90% of the share, and over the next 10 years will continue to maintain this ratio, the" European Institute of Electronics R & D Section Head JefPoortmans expressed PV projects.

   Poortmans said that, IMEC's
​​solar panels china development program is the introduction of efficiency greater than 20% and the materials used weighs only one gram of silicon solar cells. European project in 2020 to make solar power generation capacity of 400G Watt, 12% of its total electricity supply. Such R & D projects will help Europe achieve this energy goals.

   "The sun's daily production of 165,000 too watt solar (TeraWatt), as long as we get from the small part of the energy to solve the energy crisis on towards a major step forward", IMCE COO LucVandenhove representation. "We are now facing the biggest technical challenge is how to reduce the cost of solar cell power and efficiency."

   IMEC's
​​JefPoortmans believe that in the next 10 years, the crystalline silicon solar cell technology will become mainstream technology research and development. Poortmans that the use of other membrane materials (such as cadmium telluride) of solar panels than crystalline silicon-based grid connected inverter will be more limited.

   Poortmans said, "I personally convinced that in the next five years, cadmium telluride technology (R & D in the field of solar cells) have a place, but once we have to offer each year tens of G watts of energy, so they use a substrate (such as tellurium ) the supply will be limited. "

   "With the technology companies, such as FirstSolar will find new mines got them going." FirstSolar emerging from a film company has grown into the top ten solar panel manufacturer. IMEC plans to launch in 2020 of only 40 microns thick crystalline silicon solar cells and the thickness of only five micron silicon thin film solar cells. The cost of these batteries is expected to decline 2.5 times per peak watt (peakWatt) to be less than one euro.

China's photovoltaic power generation risks and problems faced by


Since 2005, subject to policy incentives and the interests of drivers, on a global scale, the market is doubling year by year trend. In China, since 2009, "Optical architecture", "Golden Sun Demonstration Project" and the desert of Dunhuang large photovoltaic power plants and other projects to start bidding after a few years, photovoltaic impressive achievements, remarkable!

The beginning of April this year, the Ministry of Finance set aside additional renewable energy tariff subsidies, subsidies for how to build solar panels power just over 2.4 billion. Currently, large ground station, the only year in Qinghai Province announced the amount of PV installed as a GW, other provinces will not be less than 2 GW. So this year, China's PV installed entirely possible to achieve 5GW, and may even be more. Some experts predict: 2013 ~ 2015 China's annual installed capacity will remain at 5GW, 2015 year cumulative reach 23.4GW.

In policy and market dual-drive, China's PV market is beginning to fully commercial direction, while the user side approaching grid parity era, development of the industry enthusiasm continues to climb. However, in the construction of passion behind it lurks crisis has become more evident as we drove the rapid development of economic train, the risk of bubbles was vigilant to ensure its sustainable and healthy development. But decades of China's PV development, can not only define measurable criteria for the completion of the installed capacity installed.

Of course, there is no problem to complete installed, but for the life cycle as long as two decades of power plant projects, how to grasp the quality equipment to ensure that it runs in a longer period of stability, failing that, to build a wholesale level is low, not even power stations, energy-saving green businesses last mess formalism, only the state of human, material and financial resources of the great waste.

What are the problems the quality  photovoltaic inverter power plants? In the power plant's entire life cycle of how to achieve effective prevention and control? Foreign widespread distributed power station in China, what reference? China's current development of photovoltaic power plants What are the obstacles? In my opinion, the current PV mainly in the following several aspects:

First, the equipment operation safety needs to be improved. Is it safe to run power plant equipment, mainly consider three aspects: the inverter cooling, combiner box, and components of the diode. Three are the main threat to the fire station factor. Short circuit caused the fire, which is the international power plant operators primary concern. According to reports: a plant in a foreign fire after, until the smoke billowing essentially blocking the sunlight, firefighters began treatment.

If a similar failure, Chinese companies also could not immediately addressed, because this time there is a power above. Has not found an effective fire plan, water fire will conductive; solid foam components at an angle above can not stay; gas fire, so in the construction of power stations, it should fully refined power plant safety measures, considering the fire, earthquake, etc. emergency rapid response plan. For example: a foreign power station identification, it is understood that China's power plants are not built like logo appears. This is China's relevant departments and related businesses should think deeply.

India Jinko solar power station is to provide 5MW PV modules


JinkoSolar (NYSE: JKS) today announced that it has Sunkon Energy in Gujarat, India cooperation projects 5 MW solar power plant has been installed. Sunkon Energy since December 2012 began using JinkoSolar PV modules offered, the company continued the efficient performance of the component. This cooperation project, Jinko provides 17,886 polycrystalline silicon block components.

The project construction is completed in 58 days, covering an area of 80,000 square meters. Estimated annual production of 8,030,000 kWh of electricity, a decrease of approximately 7,882 tons of carbon dioxide emissions. As the world's most attractive emerging markets in the world, India's population density and abundant solar energy resources, electricity demand growing long and is an ideal area for the use of solar power.

Renewable Energy India took active favorable charge controller stimulus policies to promote the Gujarat province to become India's largest solar power project is located. "I am currently in India for the company's achievements are proud of being in a few months we have entered the Indian market and provide a 80MW Jinko components

"JinkoSolar Arturo Herrero, Chief Marketing Officer, commented," Although we are not the first to enter the Indian market for monocrystalline solar panel companies, we are currently in the Indian market has rapidly emerged and have a solid market position and brand awareness.

Warmer global PV market to see whether relevant policies


As people's living standards improve, more and more people on the planet need to consume more energy - particularly in emerging markets, global energy demand reached unprecedented highs. Meanwhile, in order to protect the natural environment, human for cleaner and sustainable energy demand continues to grow, solar energy will continue to be to meet the Chinese and global demand for energy is one of the best solutions.

For the global PV market, we started to see that in some capacity rationalization PV markets such as the European. But at the same time, we also see a lot of new growth points, particularly in emerging markets; as well as in the field of public utilities. Advanced component technology, declining costs and grid capabilities have allowed large-scale grid-connected off grid inverter power plants as a viable energy source. In some areas of the grid fails, the existing sources of electricity by a liquid hydrocarbon fuels based on reciprocating engine produces, in such areas, solar energy has important economic significance.

In the high-growth regional aspects, obviously, in the Middle East is one of the most exciting markets. Potential for solar energy development in the region is evident. For example, in Saudi Arabia, they are consumed during the third generation of hydrocarbons. Taking into account the demographic, economic and social growth in consumption, if they do nothing, by 2020, the power generation process will burn 50% of the hydrocarbons.

Therefore, they must pass an open market, reducing the consumption of hydrocarbons, and choose a better technology to generate electricity. Solar offers an attractive alternative. Thus, Saudi Arabia announced that 40 gigawatts (GW) of photovoltaic program is also expected. Middle East and other regions with a similar situation, we saw a similar opportunity.

India is also a very interesting market. They have a billion people in low energy consumption levels, and largely still using liquid fuels - so there will be a buy solar cell energy development in the Indian market space; expected to be about 25-35GW. In Latin America, Chile, for example, has the world's highest levels of sunshine, but they face a serious energy shortage, or to hydrocarbon fuels. If they wish to promote economic growth, then they must use renewable energy sources, including solar energy. Thus, Latin America is another exciting market.

In the Asia Pacific region (APAC), Australia, Indonesia, Thailand, especially in Japan, have exciting opportunities. In China, we all know, the Chinese government has set ambitious solar energy development goals. By 2015, the goal is to installed capacity of over 21GW (and may even exceed 35GW). The State Department also has put photovoltaic industry into strategic emerging industries, at many levels contribute to national development. Annual growth of 10-12GW, China will undoubtedly become the world's largest solar photovoltaic market.

PV industry for at least 5 years after recovery


Recently, Yingli shipments of 2,200 MW to build the world's first business shipments, which many warm the hearts of some people in the industry, but for those ailing enterprises, this does not bring them out of the quagmire of confidence.

Li Ling Xuan analysis, self-help for the winter is difficult because each PV companies will have a different situation different fate, one is acquired by foreign companies, forced to desperation for others to do the wedding dress, the other is waiting for the government-led forces involved in the reorganization of nationalization, another is bankrupt.

Renewable Energy Association Professional Committee, deputy director Wu Dacheng photovoltaic told reporters that this is the hardest hit by the battery industry chain, component products industry PV flexible solar panels companies, which are manufacturing enterprises, and enterprises inverter is affected and businesses.

Therefore, SMA Solar Technology AG low price of only 160 million yuan scored Jiangsu Zhao volts love Faso New Energy Co. 72.5% stake. "This is probably the large German china solar panel companies spotted the now Chinese companies unsustainable predicament will certainly underestimate the enterprise value of the acquisition is successful manner, and the inverter production is the PV industry chain representing a part of the scientific and technological content. "Li Ling Xuan said.

But is this an opportunity for others to do the wedding dress, the LDK, Suntech almost did not exist before. Because these two major companies to the battery, component products industry, is the PV industry chain low-tech manufacturing enterprises, labor-intensive very high. Such as Suntech employees in a million people, while the LDK is more to achieve as much as twenty thousand people.

Government subsidies for PV industry in decline


Electrical Association data show that in 2011, China imported from Germany polysilicon $ 764 million, accounting for Chinese imports of similar products 20%; imports Silver $ 360 million. In addition, the past few years, China has imported from Germany, Switzerland and other European countries, about 180 million purchase of photovoltaic production equipment. This has greatly promoted the development of downstream industries in Europe, currently in employment in related fields of up to 30 million people in Europe.

"Germany plans to 2020, renewable energy accounted for 20%, but the government subsidies for photovoltaic solar panels cost industry in decline, to complete 20% of the index, the only way is to make the cost down. If Chinese products heavily taxed, the rising cost of certain causes, which also contributed to Germany strongly opposed the sanctions because of Chinese products. "Zhang Bing said.

Li Gang with "a mass of fog" to describe the EU anti-dumping on Chinese PV recommendation of the vote. "Voting is not open, do not know who to support and who oppose." However, due to the implementation of a unified EU trade policy, member states voting results will not necessarily affect the EU's decision. Moreover, in his opinion, it becomes an EU anti-dumping "bent."

Electrical Association negotiations to Europe's experience also confirms this point. Originally, after the Chinese government and the European Commission repeated communications consultations, the two sides agreed to by the Electrical Association on behalf of China PV china solar panel industry commitment problem in that case the price negotiations with the European Commission, but the Electrical Association said they had raised the price of commitment to practical and feasible options, The EU rejected direct talks program, nor respond to issues raised by the working group negotiations and explanations. "Because the EU did not show sincerity to solve the problem through consultations, resulting in the first round of fruitless negotiations, broke down." CCCME published in the next statement.

In this regard, the EU Trade Division spokesman in response to Chinese media, denied the "first round of talks broke down," saying, he said, in accordance with EU procedures, formal substantive negotiations only after the preliminary determination, the EU now only technical consultations between.

Artes team of lawyers in Europe also hold this view. According to them, the information learned in Europe for Chinese PV products will be temporary levy punitive tariffs. "From June 6 to December preliminary final introduced, this period must be a very difficult negotiation process." Zhang Bing of the "China Economic Weekly" said.
