China Solar Power to build 200MW a-Si thin film plant with Suzhou Industrial Park

An Ulvac turnkey a-Si thin film customer, China Solar Power (CSP), will build its third production plant with an investment from the Suzhou Industrial Park (SIP). The 200MW nameplate capacity facility will be the first of its kind in at the Suzhou Industrial Park. SIP was established in the mid-1990s as a joint venture between Suzhou and Singapore. The cost of the new plant was put at US$180 million.

CSP was founded in 2007 by Tano China Capital Management, a subsidiary of Tano Capital. CSP’s first thin-film PV manufacturing plant is located in the city of Yantai, Shandong Province in Northern China.

    Photovoltaics International 16th Edition

    This sixteenth edition of Photovoltaics International marks four years of production of the quarterly journal. As always, our focus is on efficiency and quality improvement and cost reduction in manufacturing. As 2012 rolls along, companies are falling by the wayside due to supply and demand issues, ASP declines and drastic governmental subsidy cuts. A clear picture of 2012 is offered through papers from the likes of TÜV Rheinland, Fraunhofer ISE, SEMI PV Group and EPIA, amongst others.
