SuntechHoku Materials, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Hoku Scientific, has signed its second long-term polysilicon material contract this year, this time with Suntech Power Holdings, and is worth approximately $678 million over a 10-year supply deal.  Hoku is in the process of building a $260 million plant capable of producing 2,000 metric tons of polysilicon per year in Pocatello, Idaho, which remains on track for shipments starting in 2009, according to the company.

In January, Hoku signed a long-term contract with Sanyo, also for polysilicon supply for photovoltaic applications.
