Taiwan solar cell and wafer makers to benefit from Kyocera accident


Nuying Huang, Taipei; Willie Teng, DIGITIMES [Tuesday 21 September 2010]

With Kyocera's plant in Shiga Yasu, Japan, likely to be shut down temporarily for an investigation and reconstruction following and explosion in a casting furnace, the Japan-based solar company will increase outsourcing to Taiwan-based solar cell and wafer makers. Solar cell suppliers, Neo Solar Power, Motech Industries and Gintech, and wafer maker Sino-America Silicon Products should benefit.

The Shiga Yasu plant went online in June 2010, and is an important part of Kyocera's plan to ramp up solar cell capacity to 600MWp in fiscal 2010 (ending in March 2011) and 800MWp for fiscal 2011.

The plant is a six-story facility with 18 ingot furnaces on the first floor. Its ingot growing capacity is 100MWp annually.
