Sky Solar: Feeding China’s PV Industry in Return with Multinational Experience
    —— Sky Solar Participating in SNEC 5th (2011) International Photovoltaic Power Generation Conference & Exhibition
     
    Sky Solar Holdings Co., Ltd., a world’s leading photovoltaic system developer and independent power operator, participated in SNEC international solar photovoltaic conference & exhibition together with its subsidiaries. In the press conference held during the same period, it’s announced that Sky Solar New Energy Investment Co., Ltd. – Sky Solar China was formally founded and Huang Xiaohong would be the president. Thus, Sky Solar China had become a new star in the global strategic layout of Sky Solar Group. 
     
    In recent years, China’s photovoltaic application market has developed quickly under the support of the domestic policy. However, under the same installed capacity, the system efficiency of each photovoltaic power station is different, and some project data is even dissatisfactory. Confronted with this problem, President Huang Xiaohong of Sky Solar China said, “Sky Solar has accumulated rich overseas project experience. Based on this, Sky Solar China will pay more attention to engineering details’ effect to the overall efficiency of the power station system.” By mentioning engineering technology, Huang Xiaohong emphasized confidently,”Sky Solar Overseas Technology Center and R&D Center will provide strong technology guarantee for each section of China’s photovoltaic power station projects, including system integration and design optimization. With the advantages of abundant capital, technology and talents of Sky Solar, we’ll be able to better exploit and serve the Chinese market.”
     
    Huang Xiaohong also indicated that one of the most important missions of Sky Solar is to feed China’s photovoltaic industry in return with its multinational experience: combine its rich practice experience accumulated in the international market with local Chinese market, cooperate with the domestic partners to promote the fast development of core technologies of China’s photovoltaic industry, and quickly improve its core competitiveness.
     
    Mr. Su Weili, the Chairman and CEO of Sky Solar Holdings Co., Ltd., attended this press conference and made a speech. Mr. Su indicated that Sky Solar had successfully developed, designed, established, delivered or operated tens of large ground and commercial roof photovoltaic grid power station projects in the developed countries that attach importance to photovoltaic industry such as Czech, Germany, Spain, Japan, Greece, etc. Most of the photovoltaic equipments used in these projects were purchased from Chinese supplier, which meant the construction of one more photovoltaic power station in foreign countries would open up a piece of market for the photovoltaic manufacturing industry in China. Currently, the problem of asymmetric supply and demand between China’s explosive photovoltaic manufacturing industry and the global photovoltaic market is increasingly severe. Under this condition, the business mode of Sky Solar undoubtedly brings a breakthrough to China’s photovoltaic manufacturing industry; meanwhile, the mature foreign photovoltaic power station projects of Sky Solar also provide a favorable, long-term and safe overseas project investment channel for the domestic capital.
     
    “Sky Solar has accumulated rich practice experience in photovoltaic power station design, construction, operation, investment and financing over the years. With the deviation to downstream application of solar PV in domestic industry policy, Sky Solar hopes to bring the experience accumulated in the global market back to China and make our humble efforts to promote the development of domestic PV industry. For this purpose, we have gathered the outstanding resources to found Sky Solar New Energy Investment Co., Ltd. – Sky Solar China.” remarked Su Weili.
     
    Besides, as one of the top-level PV industry conferences in the world, 2011 International Solar Industry and Photovoltaic Exhibition & Conference and SNEC 5th (2011) International Photovoltaic Power Generation Conference & Exhibition attracted over 1000 domestic and overseas PV enterprises to participate. In this conference, Sky Solar exhibited a series of solutions on investment & financing, technology development, engineering design, construction and operation management of PV-centered renewable energy power projects, which drew wide attention from the attending experts and professionals.
