The depth of the solar photovoltaic industry reshuffle is currently sorely lacking confidence


China PV industry in the winter or will continue. European Union on Chinese solar companies average 47 percent levy punitive tariffs resolution will take effect on June 6, which will make at a loss, bankruptcy PV industry in China are struggling to survive a sharp deterioration in the environment. The future development of the industry trend of how? New growth point where? As Europe's leading energy saving products and services provider, is currently planning to open up China's market PVGO brand Funeng Group Chairman and CEO Liu Jiayong gives his answer.

The depth of the solar photovoltaic industry reshuffle is currently sorely lacking confidence in the industry's most current lack of confidence, which is Liu Jiayong on the current situation in the wind inverter industry, the most basic judgments. "In the past good times, large suppliers are courageous, courageous banks, government courageous, daring big buyer, it is confident going up and now is the whole chain does not have confidence in a person, bank to the retraction of the government to retracted to the retraction of business owners, suppliers to the retraction, an industry turnover is by cash flow, cash flow is supported by faith, when a lack of confidence in the industry when it means that there will be a huge crisis in the industry. "

Liu Jiayong facing the industry is that the current depth of the shuffle, next year the situation is still not optimistic, the overall recovery will take 4-5 years to reach 2014, or balance point. From the external market, the domestic real economic recovery still takes time for the European economy has not improved, while exploring new markets also need a few years time.
Deal with the new energy industry in winter while trying to develop new business

But speaking for himself, but now is the time most confident. His confidence comes from two points, one only in the development of new energy supply and economic environment has changed, there have been some localized problems, the general direction is not wrong, but also sustainable development. Two years is a blessing Energy Group "doing the most good things," and has been actively seeking transformation.

March 2012, the new European energy Sun Valley officially began operations designed to bring together a wide variety and depth of the development of the solar civilian products. In the same year, PVGO birth of the brand, its products include not only small small solar cells home systems and mobile power products, and also covers the energy consumption, air purification, recycling of used batteries and many other categories.

Pick a PV industry a bad news hit


Spring Festival with the previous companies will point bonus this year, compared to the wages they are leading miserable failure, and even worse is that many workers will truly become a vagrant. "This round of layoffs was included in the list of front-line factory workers LDK Wang Ling (a pseudonym) told reporters.

Suntech and LDK similar, Ultra-day sun, and many other PV inverter companies are set off when the year is approaching layoffs, not only that, internal scandals, coaching, selling companies, such as a bomb was detonated. How to spend the immediate death of the year and unprecedented catastrophe, which will in the future for a long period of time, a test of each PV companies.

Near the lunar year 2013, Ultra-day sun held a five-year investment funds held by employees participate in the General Assembly, had passed on foot because of debt problems, chairman Nikai Lu released the shocking news of layoffs, it is estimated that the ultra-day sun layoffs probably accounted for the proportion of 30% of all employees. People are quite concerned that not only ultra-day sun, including Suntech and LDK, including the companies are launched on the occasion of New Year layoffs. This is some of the dismissed employees accused of "enterprises in order to live for a while at the expense of employees fates ostrich."

While some companies are busy coaching. JA on January 15 after the announcement that the CEO Peng Fang has been due to the duration of employment, no longer worked, CEO positions by the company chairman Baofang individual. Some companies are busy looking for "the next house." Also Jan. 15 volts love Faso came Jiangsu Zhao New Energy Co., Ltd is the leading German mppt solar charge controller energy enterprises SMA Solar Technology AG acquired a success message.

"These are self-help enterprises compelling way only, the biggest reason is that companies are too short of money." Zhuo record information photovoltaic industry analyst Li Ling Xuan said. Banks tightened credit photovoltaic industry, coupled with the industry downturn enterprises sustained losses, before there is caused due to excessive expansion of high debt and other issues, leading to business capital chain rupture has been more than a year of wandering cliff. "Before the production of cells, modules and other products are in short supply, gross margin up to 80% -100%, and now not only sold, gross margins are close to 0 a." People in charge of a photovoltaic sighed.

Distributed Energy pluripotent embryonic form complementary create large energy group


With the development of new energy markets, a single form of power generation by the multi-constraints, and a variety of distributed energy pluripotent complementary model not only effective fix for this defect, but also a variety of distributed energy will play to the energy efficiency the maximum.

At present, the relevant policy support from the state and the national grid to allow a variety of distributed energy grid promises multiple, mutually reinforcing development of distributed energy has become an important direction. This also allows focused and sharp in Haiyang, looking to the next important business development opportunities - in the expanding commercial application of photovoltaic power plants based on solar module thermal power generation and synchronization of shale gas, natural gas combined cycle power generation, etc., formation of a new industrial energy supply chain, which is committed to the pursuit of Haiyang become "Big Energy" Group's objectives coincide.

This year, first proposed in Hai Duong thermal power shale gas cooperation with the concept. According to Xue Liming introduction, cheap solar panels thermal power generation and shale gas can complement this concept is not much in Haiyang whim, also experienced nearly a year to conduct a feasibility research, extensive project team with the Chinese Academy of Sciences 973 experts and more this exchange, the concept made after certification. Haiyang ready to put the future of this issue as "973" one of the items to declare, in Hai Duong To become a leader in this field.

"At present, the global solar thermal power generation, has been achieved with some power plants combined cycle natural gas applications; while shale gas in the United States has become the dominant energy, fast account for nearly 1/3 of the energy market, you can also see the combination of these two broad prospects for energy, we judge, shale gas and combined cycle thermal power generation will gradually industrialization after three years, "Xue Liming said.

Haiyang focus in the direction of the field of solar power, but by sunlight photovoltaic big gap between day and night effects, you can not become the core led, self-sufficient in energy, and solar thermal power generation through the night heat storage, energy storage technology will increase costs. If the shale gas and solar thermal power generation two together, you can either reduce the investment cost sharing power island, solve energy saving, environmental protection and new energy use and transportation issues, but also be able to breed another energy play to exploit shale gas extreme.

Negotiating a trade war is a wise choice for PV



Looking back, in 2001, China joined the WTO decision, making the country's economy in an irreversible way to become a part of the world trading system, and with the rest of the world struggling linked together. Despite widespread controversy, but this decision was later proved to be one of China's most correct action.

Since joining the WTO, China's exports from less than $ 300 billion had soared to $ 2.1 trillion in 2012. Even when subjected to weak demand in key export markets and the RMB exchange rate continued strength two resistance 2012, China still achieved 7.9 percent growth in exports and became the world's largest trading nation.

China's accession to the world and its own economy into a strong driving force for the world market with a large number of highly efficient workforce. Now we can finally feel that China is the impact on the world economy: inflation subsided, interest rates down, people's purchasing power is growing. This is one of the world's largest economies of China free trade brought about a win-win model.

However, China's dramatic appearance on the world stage, was to be China massing and economic strength of the country's increasingly scared to resist. This resistance most of the time by the U.S. against China at the WTO brought a large number of anti-dumping proceedings and conduction. Some successful, but most of the time failed. Other means of containing China, including concocted special safeguard mechanism, does not recognize China as a market economy, as well as eight years after China's accession to re-audit to ensure that it complied with the terms of the original.

In the past the U.S. boycott of Chinese imports is the most intense countries, but recent European stance on China's trade has become more aggressive. Last year, EU Competition Commissioner Carlo De Gu Hete initiated a Chinese solar panels cost xports to Europe price survey. The findings published in May, he announced that within the EU imports from China imposed a solar panel from 37% to 67% of the tariff, far higher than the current 3.3%.

The policy will take effect on June 6, such as six months after the EU Member States to continue to support, will become a permanent policy. These tariffs are punitive in nature. Even high barriers to countries such as Brazil and India, similar products tariff levels were only 14% and 7.5%.

EU threat to the Chinese solar surface


Reuters May 22 disclosed a document showing that EU regulators put pressure on the Chinese authorities to increase efforts to threats against Chinese solar panels and telecommunications equipment taxed intent to EU investment agreements, Central Europe Free Trade Agreement and other content bundled negotiations to allow China to open up more markets to achieve the deep targets.

"For the PV anti-dumping, technical negotiations have now is not important, in front of the core problem is that if the EU insisted on Chinese PV china solar panel products impose punitive tariffs on Chinese side will take appropriate counter-measures, the amount of money involved would be peer the? Next, trade friction from the PV industry will be extended to other industries, the EU is too short-term economic loss calculations, will not affect the depth of field of EU economic and trade cooperation? After this event, let the EU also has a reflection. " Li Gang said.

It is understood that the Chinese Ministry of Commerce on November 1 last year, the decision on the origin of mppt solar charge controller grade polysilicon in the EU anti-dumping and countervailing investigation. This is the EU's photovoltaic products "double reverse" filed in the context of China at the national level to support Chinese PV companies countermeasures. In addition, the recent news that China Wine Wine Association has the Ministry of Commerce anti-dumping application is submitted, the Commerce Department will conduct anti-dumping investigation of imported wines.

Although executives have been on anti-dumping case of photovoltaic begin negotiations, but some Chinese PV companies or conceal pessimistic. Some analysts believe that the EU "double reverse case" ruling, Chinese PV industry will face life and death decisions, and even half of the companies will go bankrupt. "The so-called dog in the manger, in the comfort you to control the spread of pessimism, then slowly find a way." A photovoltaic company official told the "China Economic Weekly", since March this year, China has almost photovoltaic products exports to the EU stagnation.

"Because of the wind tariffs, the EU domestic importers asked the Chinese companies charge 30% of the purchase price, for future taxes. March, China has basically no companies shipped because should not have to make money, just want to return the funds The Charge 30% of the purchase price, not afraid to get back, get back to get even, but also can not afford to charge. since 2011, as Chinese overcapacity photovoltaic products, some companies out of the need to return the funds, originally sold below cost. "

The EU anti-dumping, the impact on Chinese enterprises, is much greater than the last U.S. anti-dumping. First, the amount of money involved, and in 2011, the Chinese photovoltaic products exports to the U.S. amounted to approximately $ 3.1 billion, while the EU anti-dumping case involving up to 21 billion euros. In addition, the U.S. anti-dumping against China's production of solar cells, Chinese enterprises purchasing non-Chinese production of solar cells can be circumvented. But this wider range of EU anti-dumping, blocking the Chinese enterprises bailout curve of the road.

Pengsangpu Solar and AAB International subsidiary entered into a collaboration


Recently, the Shenzhen Municipal Pengsangpu Solar Co., Ltd. and AAB International Group (AAB International Group Limited) subsidiary companies - Beijing Asia Alliance AAB Sunshine Energy Technology Co., Ltd. signed an agreement, the two sides reached a cooperation of solar energy products business. It is reported that bilateral cooperation has issued the first order.

AAB International Group was established in 2003 by China, France, Avery Lyons Group, Japan, Canada investment founded a new energy industry development, design, construction-based. Has a number of corporate patents, foreign technology to lead the flagship, the new pacesetter in energy use. In order to achieve this cooperation, Pengsangpu Solar and AAB group met several times to discuss the two sides on the development of the solar cell price industry, the market potential of new technologies and products in depth, vice president of China Chak Pengsangpu and more AAB Group introduced company's development plans, expressing the hope that through mutual cooperation to further promote the development of the solar industry's wishes.

This cooperation, further laid Pengsangpu leading position in the solar industry, to achieve mutual sharing of resources, and enhance the competitiveness of both companies. Recently from Shandong Province Development and Reform Commission, the National Electric Power Company Jiaxiang Guang volt Penglai project was "flagging" for the orderly conduct of the project preparatory work has laid a solid foundation. According to reports, Penglai companies "going out" strategy, efforts to promote Guodian Jiaxiang 10MW PV project. The project is located in Jiaxiang County, Jining City, Shandong Province, is expected after the completion of the project, the annual generating capacity of 13 million kwh, operating income of 1,500 million yuan, the annual savings of about 05,000 tons of standard coal, has obvious economic and social benefits.

Earlier this month, the State of GDTE Sunergy Co., Ltd. participated in the 2013 International grid connected inverter Industry and Photovoltaic (Shanghai) Exhibition and Forum (SNEC). Exhibition, GD Solar virtue of EPC construction advantages, showcasing the power plant construction success stories, focusing on the promotion of new energy integration solutions for service providers, distributed energy provider's sales philosophy.

50 Chinese PV companies product defect rate of 5.5 to 22%


Following the high-profile Solyndra and Evergreen Solar, after the company declared bankruptcy, solar energy seems to be in the sun usher in a new day. However, it was reported that a large number of defective components may cause the photovoltaic industry is threatened.

According to "The Wall Street Journal" reported that companies such as American Electric Power American reliance on coal power generation utilities are planning for businesses and households to install photovoltaic modules - which is SolarCity such as the installation of distributed photovoltaic systems company as a threat. In Boston, wind farm developer First Wind is moving into the field of solar cell panel photovoltaic power generation, the company plans to acquire a large number of New England, Hawaii, Utah and Washington state photovoltaic power generation projects.

According to "The New York Times" reported that all of the above may contain photovoltaic power generation projects as part of its warranty period is far reaches of PV monocrystalline solar cell modules. It is headquartered in Marlborough, Massachusetts, SolarBuyer published reports that over the past 18 months, on 50 factories in China were found in a review, product defect rate of 5.5 to 22%. "The New York Times" pointed out a large scale in the United States east of Los Angeles rooftop power generation system in operation only two years later, the protective coating of decomposition and other defects that may cause a fire.

According to "The New York Times" Todd Woody reports, this is not the case. Around the world, testing laboratories, developers, financiers and insurers have reported similar problems, and represents almost legitimate PV modules are widely used when the value of the $ 77 billion of the photovoltaic industry is facing a quality crisis. Conrad Burke, general manager of DuPont Photovoltaic told reporters that, we need to face the fact that costs are constantly cut.
