2nd China Solar Industry Leadership Summit in Lanzhou

SHANGHAI, CHINA: China's exported amount of photovoltaic products was equal to $15.44 billion in 2009, up 147.75 percent year on year.

China's Chamber of Commerce for Import & Export of Machinery &. Electronics Products (CCCME) predicts that global solar energy demand will increase by 25 percent in 2010. Will this mean that the export growth of the Chinese PV industry, which heavily depends on exporting, (98 percent) will exceed 150 percent in 2010?

Chinese banks, policy banks in particular, encourage enterprises, such as Suntech, Trina Solar (TSL) and Yingli, to build more PV power stations overseas. The PV market has rigid demand. The financial support from Chinese banks to PV enterprises could ease their liquidity shortage caused by the financial crisis. This will promote their development in the overseas market.

The 2nd China Solar Industry Leadership Summit is to be convened on June 24-25, 2010 in Lanzhou, China, under the auspices of Gansu Provincial People's Government, Energy Research Institute of National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC) of China, China5e.com and CBI EVENTS.

This conference will bring together PV project operators from all over China, power enterprises, local governments, international PV cell manufacturers, feedstock suppliers, providers of system integration, technologies and equipment, and highlight grid-connected PV power generation projects in China.

This event will be attended by delegates of PV industrial leaders. Together they will envisage China's PV market, technological trends and investment hotspots.

Before the summit a CPV Workshop will be organized. There is a trip to a large PV farm after the conference.
