Business Description
We develop, manufacture and market solar power cells, panels and systems that provide reliable and environmentally clean electric power throughout the world. Solar power products draw electricity from solar cells which are semiconductor devices that convert the sun`s energy into electricity. Our sales are composed of primarily solar panels. After three years of research and development and three years of refining our solar power technologies in our pilot manufacturing facility, we are preparing to begin large-scale manufacturing of our solar power products in our new manufacturing facility by early 2001. We believe the proprietary and patented solar power technologies that we have developed and are currently developing will give us significant cost and product design advantages. We intend to become a leading producer of high-quality solar power products by reducing manufacturing costs, developing innovative solar power products and pursuing strategic relationships, such as our distribution and marketing relationship with Kawasaki Heavy Industries, Ltd. of Japan.




Competitors
The market for solar power products is intensely competitive. There are over 20 companies in the world that produce solar power products, including a number of very large United States, Japanese and European companies. According to Strategies Unlimited, in 1999 the six largest sellers of solar power products produced approximately 71% of worldwide solar panel shipments. These companies include BP Solarex, Kyocera Corporation, Siemens Solar Group, Sharp Corporation, AstroPower, Inc. and Photowatt International S.A. Many of the largest solar power product producers derive the majority of their sales from conventional manufacturing technology that involves slicing solid blocks of crystalline silicon. There are also a variety of advanced crystalline silicon and thin film technologies being actively developed by many of these and other competing solar power companies, including advanced crystalline sheet and ribbon technologies and thin films of amorphous silicon, cadmium telluride and copper indium diselenide.

Weis jemand mehr ?

Ist die Firma auch in Deutschland handelbar ?

Der schon vor Monaten angekündigte Börsengang dürfte nun bald stattfinden, voraussichtlich zu $ 13 bis $ 15 für 3 Mio Stück Aktien. Sobald der Emissionsprospekt vorliegt, folgt eine Analyse im ÖKO-INVEST (Probeheft unter [e-mail]). Deutsche Privatanleger werden - ohne Depot in den USA - wohl kaum eine Chance auf Zuteilung haben. Da sich einige Institutionelle auf diese Aktie stürzen werden und der Kurs schnell auf 25-30 Dollar steigen könnte, sollte man keine Fantasiepreise zahlen, sondern nur mit Limits arbeiten.
