See the sun rise best at PV Taiwan 2012!
Among all the regions in the world, Asia is expected to be the force that kick-starts a strong year-end surge in PV demand, reports NPD Solarbuzz. And it’s PV Taiwan 2012 which may just be the right procurement hub, at the right time and place to lead the recovery.
This Oct. 3 to 5 many will be scouting through PV Taiwan at TWTC Hall 1 to source the best prospects under the Sun! Taiwan is well positioned. It ranks as the world’s second largest PV cell manufacturing base worldwide and holds 17% market share in PV cell production. And last year, combined Taiwan-China output supplied the world with more than 70% of its PV cells. As joint suppliers Taiwan and the PRC hold more than 50% market share of C-Si cells and module production capacity.
Meanwhile demand for PV products has shifted from major European countries to Asia which has chalked up a 60% market growth Y/Y in Q2 2012 to reach 1.4 GW according to NPD Solarbuzz. And what makes Taiwan interesting to producers is the rush across Taiwan to go PV. SEMI estimates that Taiwan over the next four years will replace 2.5~3 GW of energy with PV, mostly through upgrades or replacements on the current power grid.
That’s one of the reasons the PV sector is set to plug into PV Taiwan, Formosa’s exclusive PV trade show.For details and to register, click: www.pvtaiwan.com
