    Affected by the buoyant demand, Taiwan-based solar-cell factory in October revenue is expected to continue to challenge again a new high point, in addition to the published Sun Division has reached that goal, including the Yu Jing, a new daylight, the benefits of pass, so chances are Motech very high, and solar cells offer fail generally remained high, carve out new products to increase revenue growth rate is expected to become the driving force.

    Visibility of orders in December was no problem up to the impact of upcoming solar-cell factory after another in October sales are still expected to continue to challenge high point. Sun has announced revenues of NT Branch October 1.311 billion yuan, the monthly growth rate of 0.76%, the annual growth rate of 178%, 8 months consecutive monthly revenue hit a new high camp 1 ~ 10 months cumulative close to 8.299 billion yuan, an annual growth of 201.27 percent.

    Sun Section 2010, solar cell production capacity is expected to 240 megawatts by the year (MWp) increase to 520MWp, through capacity bottlenecks in the way to the actual production capacity may reach 620MWp, 2011 an annual capacity of 1,200 MWp.

    Sun Branch battery capacity is expected to reach the end of 2010 120MWp, 2011 reached 200MWp. Silicon and silicon wafer joint venture between China and the U.S. in the sun V, is expected to commence operation in 2011, at the end of 10 billion watts, Sun Science Group’s total production capacity of solar cells expansion goes well, the end of 2011 expected to reach 24 gigawatts of water level, and Mao Di, Yu Jing, the new plan is actually quite daylight, etc., can be explosive follow-up period.

    Within the new daylight is also optimistic about sales in October to right, compared with September’s 2.11 billion yuan revenue is still good, is expected to record revenue for 7 months! A new record high. Chairman Lin Kunxi New Solar has said that orders for the new daylight view, demand for Q4 orders without taking into account the price movements without loosening, stability and considerable Q3, in particular, offer the market worried about the trend in December, and no = signs of fall in prices. Lin Kunxi predicts, by 2011 there will be 2 percent of the market growth rate.

    L Crystal, chairman of Pan Yan has also pointed out that the situation Q4 orders optimistic, at least to 12 months no problem, and in December prices that should be further evaluated. Yu Jing October of legal persons is still giving optimistic revenue forecasts, a new high of machines is high. Yu Jing production capacity is expected to end in October ahead of 930MWp touchdowns also are waiting to step up into the Chunan Plant built new capacity.

    General Manager Zhang Bingheng Motech has also pointed out that the solar Q1 2011 showed the probability of shortage is still significant, but has also revealed that his speech system, even if the market worried about the German market in 2011 will cause fluctuations in demand cut subsidies, but access Motech single case, did not the external factors.

    Motech September due to increase the proportion of OEM sales declined slightly compared with August, if the adjustment has been completed in October is expected to be high, if the foundry continued to adjust the proportion of revenue is still expected to remain at high point.

    Car industry chain, battery, motor, electric control as the core of future development. This form, the future development of the automotive industry, electric cars will no doubt be a weathervane in the national policy under the rapid development of 2015, the electric car ownership will reach 100 million scale, while China Automotive Safety and Energy National Laboratory Ouyang Ming Gao is confident that in Shanghai, when the car battery costs will be reduced by half.

    863 as a national energy-saving and new energy vehicles, leader of major projects, expert, and the automotive industry, “second Five-Year” plan members of the Group, Ouyang Minggao optimistic people on the new energy vehicles, or clear is that the future of electric cars was just around the corner. But a closer observation of the current level of domestic production of automotive batteries and battery technology to lower costs by 2015 half of the battery, or the fear just a talk.

    In fact, now is still in the stage of early stage of development of electric vehicles, the major car firms and even some small factories are staking their claims in the field of electric vehicles, but in fact not much is really its own R & D capabilities, most of the technologies are from foreign countries bought, or with domestic battery production enterprises purchase. In order to achieve more in the car battery energy storage, the battery needs to do much. Combined with the special condition car battery while in the bigger more problems to be solved. Such as: electric vehicle battery pack composed by a number of cells stacked in series. If the battery pack in a battery capacity slightly lower than the other battery, then after several charge / discharge cycles, its charge state will gradually deviate from the other battery. When there is no periodic charge state balance with the other battery, then the battery will eventually discharge into the depth of the state, resulting in damage to the battery discharge must be resolved for this balance. And to solve this problem is again from the battery material and battery charge and discharge control two aspects.

    The battery is rich and varied options are: lead-acid batteries, nickel-based batteries (nickel hydrogen and nickel metal hydride batteries, nickel and nickel zinc batteries Fu), sodium ß cell (sodium sulfur batteries and a a sodium nickel chloride batteries), rechargeable lithium batteries, air batteries, lithium iron phosphate batteries and other types.

    Battery charge and discharge surveillance is an important factor affecting the cost and the controller area network communication interface (CAN) bus. To communication interface, this bus is the communication overhead is relatively low, but only for low-interference environment. The controller area network bus in a wide range of automotive applications, with error detection, fault tolerance and other characteristics, communication cost disadvantage is that large, high cost of materials.

    Admittedly, lithium iron phosphate is expected to become the center of the future of automotive batteries, but the selection of the battery types, each of the selected depot, and each has its advantages in the application of technology, combined with the ultimate automotive products, except for weak electric cars mixing , electric car ownership in the market is not great, even if the promotion of national policies, to rush in 2015, so many of the depot, the purchase of the battery is difficult to form large enough to reduce the cost of bulk purchases, and where technology is constantly updated models are constantly improving, the car battery as bespoke and handmade in general, the possibility of reducing costs is questionable.

    China is now the era of market economy, the state then the development of new energy vehicles, including positive, from which no one would like to share. Great demand on the battery in this process, raw materials prices is an inevitable trend. Also the battery storage of raw materials due to the need for more energy, more precious materials needed, process more complex refining process, the production of more stringent, further increase the cost of production was reasonable.

    Then added back, even though the battery is more inclined to reduce the cost of bubble, but the good news is that China is a new energy - electric vehicles on the road to continuous improvement will be achieved over time into every household electric vehicles to meet There is no doubt true to the era of green energy.
