The key points are "various Prior Defaults" and "forbear from exercising their power of sale". Lender(s) has/Have) been Forbearing to exercise their power to liquidate loaner's shares ,due to prices to low to mention, while investors have been wondering why Peng has not declared bankrupcy...

Posted October 3, 2012 · Report post According to data LDK sold 2.25MW of modules in August and 25MW in July for export (outside of China). The company has closed down for two weeks and operated its capacity with 20% utilization in last 30 or so days. Now Peng got a "promise" that assets will not be liquidated under the collateral (his shares). I see Hobo has posted a post-mortem on yahoo, claiming his personal victory," unlike a lot of people " a testament to long life ahead the LDK. LDK is a living corpse, zombie. Putting lipstick on the corpse, it does not make it lively, it makes it look grotesque and scary. 0 Go to top Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 6, 2012 · Report post (TibetanReview.net, Oct06, 2012) A major state owned energy company of China is to invest 100 billion yuan (US$15.87 billion) within 10 years to harvest the abundant solar and hydroelectric power resources in the Tibet Autonomous Region (TAR), the western half of Chinese ruled ethnographic Tibet. The region has an amount of annual sunlight clocking in at 2,000 hours while its hydropower resources are believed to account for 29 percent of the PRC’s total, reported China’s official Xinhua news agency Oct 4. The report said Huaneng Tibet Power Generation Co Ltd, or HTPG, a subsidiary of the State-owned China Huaneng Group, had signed multiple agreements with the TAR government to develop clean energy. "The investment is aimed at putting an end to the energy shortage in Tibet and sending power out of the region as well," Liu Xingguo, general manager of HTPG, was quoted as saying. The report noted that in Jul 2010, Huaneng had kicked off its construction work on the Zangmu Hydropower Station, the largest hydropower project in the region. It added that the 8.5 billion-yuan project, with an installed capacity of 510,000 kilowatts, would become operational in 2014 and reach its full capacity in 2016 after its six power-generating units will have been put into use, generating 2.5 billion kW of electricity annually. The report further said that by 2015 Huaneng's installed capacity in the TAR would reach 800,000 kW and rise further to 10 million kW by 2020, going by the terms of its agreement with the TAR government. https://www.google.ie/search?q=SOLAR++&rlz=1C1TEUA_enIE498IE498&aq=f&oq=SOLAR++&sugexp=chrome,mod=9&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8#q=SOLAR&hl=en&safe=off&rlz=1C1TEUA_enIE498IE498&tbas=0&tbs=qdr:d,sbd:1&tbm=nws&prmd=imvnslz&psj=1&ei=ZaJwUOb8FcaohAfkkoHICw&start=50&sa=N&bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.r_cp.r_qf.&fp=5a2c2902af134d29&biw=1366&bih=643 0 Go to top Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted October 18, 2012 · Report post Sunways Solar Cells for the Largest Transparent Photovoltaic Roof in the USA By Sunways AG Published: Thursday, Oct. 18, 2012 - 6:12 am KONSTANZ, Germany, October 18, 2012 -- /PRNewswire/ -- [*]Transparent design solar cells for multifunctional energy roof [*]Biggest order for building-integrated photovoltaics to date New Jersey, will see the installation of the largest transparent photovoltaic roof in the USA. Renowned architectural firm Rafael Viñoly from New York designed an open and transparent office building for the company's oncology division. The innovative energy roof underlines the modern architecture of the completely glazed office complex and will be implemented by Onyx Solar/New York. What is so special about it: A special process provides the semitransparent solar cells with square cut-out openings. This leads to transparency levels of around 10 percent. The staggered arrangement of the solar cells in individually manufactured solar glass modules leads to additional transparency for daylight. The result is an aesthetic solar roof as a multifunctional solution: it not only protects against environmental influences but also uses existing surfaces for the production of renewable energy while rendering natural lighting and shading possible. Sunways is supplying over 161,000 monocrystalline, semitransparent design solar cells (5 x 5 inch / 125 x 125 mm) for the project in East Hanover. They will be installed in 820 bespoke glass modules. The end product will be a roof area of around 2,547 square metres with a rated output of 295 kilowatts. As well as solar cells for transparent roof and facade solutions, Sunways also has a range of coloured solar cells for design-oriented, aesthetic solutions in building-integrated photovoltaics.

Posted October 19, 2012 · Report post PV module Consolidation in 2013-2014: What to Expect With persistent overcapacity and strained balance sheets, the global PV module manufacturing landscape is bound for a transformation. We list eight trends we expect to play out over the next two years. SHYAM MEHTA: OCTOBER 18, 2012 Report author Shyam Mehta talks about solar module winners, losers, who gets acquired, and what the market looks like in 2014 in this podcast. This is the first in a series of articles from GTM Research's just-published report assessing the global module supplier landscape, Global PV Module Manufacturing 2013: Competitive Positioning, Consolidation and the China Factor. For more information on the report, clickhere. After several years of sustained profits and strong (if not always stable) growth, the PV manufacturing sector has found itself in the midst of a protracted downturn. A combination of overly aggressive capacity build-up in 2010 and 2011, along with severely curtailed subsidies in major feed-in tariff markets resulted in a massive supply-demand imbalance that manifested itself in early 2011, and is not expected to abate until at least 2014. Consequently, inventories have remained high and gross profit margins for PV module suppliers have nose-dived, from peaks of more than 30 percent in late 2010, when supply outpaced demand, to low single digits as of mid-2012 for even the lowest-cost producers. The growing commoditization of modules -- that is, the perception in the minds of buyers that quality and reliability do not differ significantly from one producer to another -- has not helped matters, either. Rampant overcapacity and commoditization have led to a spate of plant closures, market exits and insolvencies in the past year and a half, shown in chronological order below. However, the victims so far have mostly been smaller producers in high-cost regions, and this has done very little to alleviate the industry’s troubles. 0 Go to top Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
