First Solar launching new record 420W thinfilm solar module in 2018

Stefan Degener, First Solar's Head of Business Development for Europe, Turkey, and Africa is revealing some details of the new record Series 6 thinfilm solar module.


Recently you changed your distribution structure. How does it look like?

As part of the expansion of its global commercial footprint, First Solar decided to enter a so called collaborative sales agreement. These are strategic partnerships with regional distributors, e.g. with Zorlu in Turkey. By leveraging Zorlu’s commercial strength we expect to gain access to module sales opportunities in emerging markets, some of which we have not previously targeted. Another successful strategic alliance is the cooperation with Caterpillar, in which case Cat-branded solar panels, manufactured by First Solar, are distributed through Cat’s worldwide dealer network.


What benefits will it have?

This shift in distribution structure lets us focus on what we can do best: produce high quality and high performance thin-film photovoltaic (PV) modules using First Solar’s advanced andproven technology. Our focus is to provide products with superior performance, reliability and cost effectiveness and continues First Solar’s commitment to innovation with technology. Also, with partners like Zorlu and others, we have regional experts that give us access to new markets and can capture the best value.


Which new markets you are focusing with your strategic partners?

At the moment, the focus is on the 26 countries covered by the distributionagreement with Zorlu.


When will you launch your new module series 6?

The fully certified product will be commercially available in the second half of 2018. The transition from our current Series 4 module will be seamless, and, for a period, there will be overlapping Series 4 and Series 6 production to address demand.


Can you tell us some characteristics of the new product in terms of performance, quality and price?

The new Series 6 PV module is expected to enter commercial availability with a nameplate capacity of 420W and over 17 percent conversion efficiency. Its design with a three times larger form factor is similar to a typical crystalline silicon module and its under-mount frame allows for universal mounting with common fixed-tilt and tracking structures.

Developers and EPCs benefit from a cost-competitive solution driven by higher-velocity installation, reduced Balance of System costs, enhanced packaging design and greater shipping density. The new module retains all the performance and reliability advantages demonstrated over the last decade of performance. As a result, Series 6 will continue to generate up to eigth percent more energy per watt installed, compared with conventional crystalline silicon modules with the same power rating.

Heute verkauft

Es gibt hervorragende Investments in den amerikanischen High-Tech Markt von denen ich eine größere Kurssteigerung sehe als bei First Solar noch in diesem Jahr.

Aber First Solar bleibt ein gutes Investment!

[Pebbles]

Das war aber heute ein großer Schluck aus der Pulle

Aber kein Wunder, wenn sich Die Quartalsergebnisse gegenüber den Vorhersagen der Analysten so stark besser darstellen.

Mal schaun, wie weit der Anstieg geht.

Auszug aus: http://www.finanznachrichten.de/nachrichten-2017-05/40609010…

After rising sharply early in the session, shares of First Solar (FSLR) have pulled back off their best levels but remain significantly higher in afternoon trading on Wednesday. First Solar is currently up by 13.4 percent after reaching a two-month intraday high.

The early jump by First Solar came after the solar energy company reported an unexpected first quarter profit and boosted its full-year forecast.

Quartalszahlen liegen vor. First Solar hat im ersten Quartal 0,25 € pro Aktie verdient, die Anslysten hatten 13 Cent erwartet. Die Jahresprognose liegt jetzt bei 25-0,75 € und damit deutlich höher als bisher. Analysten-Erwartungen bisher 0,30 € fürs ganze Jahr.

Nanu? Noch keine News zu diesem Sprung gefunden :()

Der Aktienkurs: An der Nasdaq gestern 5,3 % gestiegen!

Mein Einstige war auch Chart-technisch getrieben. Mal sehen ob der Anstieg weiter anhält oder doch nur eine Eintagsfliege war.

Ich bin heute mal wieder eingestiegen!

Nachdem die Aktie Kurs-technisch komplett unter die Räder gekommen ist, habe ich mir heute ein paar ins Depot gelegt.
Auch wenn Donald die Kohle wieder fördert, er kann die Solartechnik nicht aufhalten. Und First Solar ist mit seinen Großanlagenbau sehr gut aufgestellt, nicht nur in Amerika.

Ich bin gespannt, wie sich der Kurs weiter entwickeln wird1

Japan to lower tariffs, cancel projects after paying ¥2.3tr last year for FiTs

By Andy Colthorpe Mar 01, 2017

http://www.pv-tech.org/news/japan-to-lower-tariffs-cancel-pr…

Japan is set to lower its levels of feed-in tariff (FiT) payments once again, while a multi-gigawatt pipeline of unbuilt large-scale PV projects will be “cancelled” at the beginning of April.

On the opening day of World Smart Energy Week, incorporating the PV Expo show in Tokyo, Toshimitsu Fujiki, a director at Japan’s government Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (METI), confirmed that a “new FiT system” will be in effect from the beginning of the new financial year, 1 April.

While Fujiki did not allude to how much would now be payable for the power generated at various scales, drops of 10% and 11% have not been uncommon in the past couple of years, with the average FiT payment currently standing at around ¥21 (US$0.19)/kWh. Japan’s renewable energy FiT has primarily fostered solar development rather than other forms of generation such as wind and biomass and Fujiki said that in 2016, the Japanese government paid out ¥2.3 trillion in tariffs.

“There are great possibilities [for renewable energy] but we must reduce costs,” Fujiki said, referencing recent tenders in Abu Dhabi that secured project development at just US$0.03/kWh as an example of what might be achieved.

Erfüllt First Solar diese Kriterien??
Die Gesellschaft leidet nicht unter fallenden Solarmodulpreisen, sondern profitiert sogar davon!
Das Unternehmen nutzt staatliche Förderprogramme, und seine Gewinne sind auf Jahre hinaus gut planbar!
Die Dividendenrendite liegt aktuell bei fast 8 Prozent!
