The current the global CIGS battery market situation how? 2012, by the impact of the global solar power market downturn, CIGS module production has also been a small impact, although the current 2012 data has not yet been figured out, but from 2011 the world's top seven component manufacturers the status quo, it can be about 12.
Global CIGS cell capacity is smaller, but the overall market conditions and the crystalline silicon components can not be optimistic, despite the weak global PV solar panel market factors which, but the the CIGS cell module production itself high investment cost, and small public market, also contributed to the crux of its poor performance in the global market.
Question then is why the present and in the global CIGS cell market downturn, Hina is still heavily acquisition MiaSolé CIGS battery companies? I believe that, first of all because MiaSolé PV soalr cell modules with high conversion efficiency technology, Hina Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Li River Jun said, the technology of mass production conversion efficiency of 15.5%, and the technology is expected within two years to have a larger raise The space, Hina acquisition MiaSolé indicates the affirmation and the high expectations of its technical capacity;
Second, due to become one of the biggest impediment to the component makers in China to enter the U.S. market U.S. market components businesses in China double reverse, Hina overwhelmed by acquisition of the United States over trade barriers in the United States for the future lay the foundation for market development; Furthermore, due to the the CIGS cells overall industry downturn, its manufacturers purchase price is relatively cheap, Hina election MiaSolé acquisition now complete, it is more appropriate timing.
Except Hina, many large multinational companies such as Mitsui & Co. and other international, has long been in the PV industry in 2011 into the winter, put the next generation of photovoltaic technology, such as CdTe (cadmium telluride) batteries, and CIGS cell compound thin film battery as crystal the next generation of potential alternatives for silicon components, industrial strategic layout. Compared to these traditional multinationals, the pace of China's battery industry in CIGS industry is also not lagging behind.
CIGS battery market prospects, how will it? According to the analysis and forecasting of Chinese consulting Maizhe (China) Company, 2016, the global CIGS production capacity of the battery, will reach 4GW, the market size will reach about 20 billion yuan, beyond silicon-based thin-film modules, flat CdTe thin film batteryOne of the components of the world's largest thin-film components industry. Short term, CIGS cell components want to become the alternative crystalline silicon components international mainstream solar modules to form a huge industrial chain with the supply and demand relationship, for now it seems the possibility is still small.
, China CIGS cell industry in the future will be how to develop, to favorable positions in the global market for CIGS cells? I believe that CIGS cell industry in China to obtain a rapid and sustainable development, depends on a few aspects of the internal and external conditions.
First, the operation of the enterprises themselves, should avoid a repeat of crystalline silicon components to focus too much on the mistakes of the capacity, technologically and light capacity - the early efforts to reduce the cost of equipment investment, the the overall turnkey production line split subdivision has its own high-efficiency production line, in order to reduce dependence on foreign equipment, the early equipment technology input costs as the main factors hinder the the CIGS battery industry, and has been actively developing new technologies, committed to the development to improve the conversion efficiency, reduce the cost of component materials the core competitive advantage;
Second, the CIGS cells enterprises in China foreign should continue to actively expand domestic and overseas markets, with a view to the formation of a number of leading enterprises and domestic crystalline silicon components equally competitive advantage with international brands; once again, the state of the the CIGS battery domestic market to foster not indispensable, China CIGS cell industry will promote, as a long-term and stable strategic planning to deployment, depending on the status of development of the market gradually perfecting strengthening CIGS cell industry chain, to the next generation PV market competition, so that our enterprises occupy a favorable terrain.
CdTe solar cells with compound thin film battery, for example, in 2011, I have visited one earlier involved in a domestic the CdTe battery industry, the above energy. The company said that, in order to foster the development of emerging solar cell, the Shaoxing Municipal Government and its jointly invested 1.5 billion yuan, the investment capacity of 500MW CdTe cell production line in Shaoxing. I believe that, Shaoxing municipal CdTe cell industry to foster emerging technology CIGS cell reference for reference in the development of the domestic market is very same.
