Zhejiang Chint solar breakthrough downstream market

SMM Reuters: PV "roller coaster" market last year, a lot of Star Enterprise have fallen, a large number of enterprises generally losses or even bankruptcy. However, with the development of the downstream PV power plant, Chint Group's solar project sprung up everywhere. "

"Last year, the company Solar profit of about 130 million yuan. Hatred Chin Wei, president of Zhejiang Chint Solar Energy Technology Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as" Chint Solar ") recently accepted the" First Financial Daily "reporters interview, said last year the company 600 megawatts of solar sales, sales more than 40 billion yuan. Product price down 50%, sales of $ 28 billion, declined from the previous year; construction projects 15 billion yuan, while the year before only several hundred million dollars.

Chint Solar PV solar panel winter period, to achieve such results, in the hatred Exhibition Wei seems mainly due to the "We do a lot of work, out of a road." Domestic photovoltaic industry support policies, hatred Exhibition Wei believes that this year, the domestic photovoltaic market will be relatively large breakthrough, "the situation than last year."

Five years ago, Chint Group second-generation thin-film solar technology into the photovoltaic industry. Compared with the more mature crystalline silicon solar cells, the second-generation thin-film solar technology has occupy less silicon material, the lower the final cost advantage. However, the market is changing so fast, then Chint Group Chairman Nan Cunhui, did not think now would be to invest in photovoltaic power plants as the transformation of a breakthrough.

"We had as thin film solar cells the" housekeeping weapons, and has been working to improve its conversion rate as well as high-end equipment in China. "Nan Cunhui told reporters that the past few years, Chint thin film solar cells will translate rate increased to 12%, the highest in the world. The same time, the "Made in China" solar high-end film equipment smooth off the assembly line in Shanghai Zhangjiang.

Zhejiang Provincial Energy Agency statistics show that the first three quarters of last year, Zhejiang Province, the photovoltaic industry output value of over 200 billion yuan, a year-on-year decline of 51%. At the same time, the total loss of the province's photovoltaic business is about 30 billion industry loss will reach 80%. In addition, monocrystalline silicon production enterprises 96% discontinued; photovoltaic cell and module production enterprises, in addition to individual enterprises operating rate is better, the a SME operating rate of approximately 50%.

Especially in recent years, polysilicon prices fell from $ 400 per kilogram, now less than $ 20, so that the thin film solar cell advantage gone. Nan Cunhui said, even if the developed world's best thin-film solar cell, also must act decisively to adjust timely transformation. "This is a very painful thing, because we have to pay too much."

Chint new energy has built August 2012, including the Shizuishan a 10MW and two 10MW, the Ningxia Taiyangshan a 10MW, Qinghai Golmud a 20MW, a 50MW in Dunhuang, Gansu Province, Gansu Jinta a 40MW such as large-scale terrestrial photovoltaic power plants totaling 150 MW, all electricity transmission to the national grid. Since then, the Chint New Energy and Technology Group's investment new energy companies formally signed a 500MW power station development contracts.
