High conversion  capacity built

Quasar cells /modules Sunergy 140MW Q3 2012

Honey cells/modules Trina 500MW Q2 2012

Quasi Mono wafer line LDK 400MW Q4 2011

Maple and Secium Ja Solar 360MW Q4 2011

Virtus wafer line Renesola 1.8GW Q4 2011

** Kuching facility Malaysia reduced to 300MW, Portland, Oregan optimized

*** Kyocera does not provide for capacity, instead production numbers are published

. 800MW is for production of cells

Schott, has a production capacity of 480MW wafers, and 300MW cells, company will not mass produce
