JA Solar recently revealed its 2010 shipments will exceed 1.35GW, production capacity will exceed 1.8GW. JA Solar has been replaced by the German solar industry leader Q-Cells, get on the global crystalline silicon solar cell suppliers top spot.
JA April 2006 to start operations of its first 25MW production line, and then continued to increase JA R & D and production inputs, by 2009, with production up 32 solar cell production capacity to 800MW, achieved sales of 3.8 billion RMB. This gives rise to JA about the global solar cell manufacturers sixth, the third position. Entered after 2010, Australia wins the crystal. Chairman and CEO in Jinbao Fang Peng’s leadership, JA accelerated expansion capacities, in the first half of 2010 shipments to reach 583MW, over 509MW of last year’s total shipments, sales revenue of 4.3 billion Yuan. JA single quarter of the second quarter of 2010, shipments to 311MW, is the world’s largest crystalline silicon solar cell suppliers. Over the same period the second quarter of 2010, shipments of the German Q-cells arrives at 238MW.
Meanwhile, independent research and development of the new JA single crystal solar cells Secium (game show), the average conversion efficiency reached 18.5%, up 19.2%, leading position in the industry. In addition, JA also continues to strengthen cooperative R & D projects, such as with the Netherlands Energy Research Centre (ECN) and other world-class R & D institutions to develop solar cell conversion efficiency of more than 20% of the battery.
In the polycrystalline silicon solar cells, the crystalline silicon solar cell O improved the production process and manufacturing technology, began to put into production a new generation of polysilicon solar cells, the average conversion efficiency has reached 16.6%, the highest conversion efficiency of more than 17%. Production and use of existing technology conversion efficiency of 16.2% compared with the products, which is a major step forward, can increase the solar power generation components and reduce production costs. JA Solar and have drawn a clear technology road map, to keep the transfer generation, research and development generation, reserve generation, solar manufacturing technology leadership.
