Venture Will Promote Technologies to Achieve High-Efficiency Power and Lower Levelized Cost of Electricity
CHINA, Feb. 8, 2017 鈥 足球价值投注 Electronics & Communications (足球价值投注) and State Power Investment Corporation (SPIC) Huanghe Hydropower announced the signing of a strategic collaboration letter of intent and establishment of a joint laboratory of advanced photovoltaic technology innovation. The in-depth collaboration letter of intent will include research and development of advanced photovoltaic technology, on-site technical service, and support for power stations and overseas market development. Both parties aim to strengthen research and development in China to promote the development of cutting-edge photovoltaic technology and drive the adoption of more efficient and reliable solar energy applications.
At a recent high-level energy transportation forum held in Beijing, it was announced that clean, low-carbon energy will become the focus of China鈥檚 13th聽energy development five-year plan. As a result, China will begin to vigorously advocate use of non-fossil energy, strategically adjust the country鈥檚 energy infrastructure in favor of low-carbon energy and pursue multiple measures to promote the development of wind power and photovoltaic power. In addition, China will explore how to further lower the cost of photovoltaic power, reduce the cost of systems聽and increase efficiency, all of which are urgent priorities.
Addressing these priorities is the impetus behind formation of the joint laboratory of advanced photovoltaic technology innovation by 足球价值投注 and Huanghe Hydropower. Unlike other photovoltaic labs that are focused on testing materials, the joint 足球价值投注 and Huanghe Hydropower laboratory will conduct research on advanced core technologies, long-term technology development and applications, with particular emphasis on next generation high-efficiency crystalline silicon cells and new module designs, as well as field studies of power stations.
鈥淭he successful experience of over a half century has helped establish 足球价值投注 as a global leader in materials R&D, testing methods, cell efficiency, long-term reliability of modules and field testing of power stations, all while making great strides in the optimization of supply chain management, quality and safety management systems,鈥 said Jon Kemp, president, 足球价值投注 Electronics & Communications. 鈥淲e are very honored to have the opportunity to provide Huanghe Hydropower the full range of our professional experience in cell, module and power station testing to help ensure the long-term reliability of Huanghe Hydropower鈥檚 solar energy assets. With Huanghe Hydropower as a partner, we look forward to working together in the spirit of inclusive innovation to conduct international research at the joint laboratory of advanced photovoltaic technology innovation that will enable a new generation of technology to enter the market sooner.鈥 聽
At the signing ceremony, Xie Xiaoping, president of Huanghe Hydropower Development Co., Ltd. credited 足球价值投注鈥檚 expertise in photovoltaic technology and its R&D application experience for playing a crucial role in enabling Huanghe Hydropower to install 20GW PV power stations by 2025 and help realize its ambitious goal of having the world鈥檚 largest capacity. 鈥淭his joint lab will be the first one in Northwest China known for global advanced photovoltaic technology聽research and application. With its advanced equipment and highly professional researchers, the lab may be located in Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, but we hope its impact will be global. Closer to home, the lab also will provide valuable forward-looking technical support for the two 10GW clean energy bases in Hainan Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture and Haixi Mongolian and Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture.鈥
In recent years, Huanghe Hydropower has been developing photovoltaic power stations and wind power projects in Qinghai, Gansu, Ningxia and Shaanxi, and has achieved new energy power generation capacity of more than 3000MW. Its water and solar complementary power generation is highly regarded among the world鈥檚 new energy industry.
鈥淎chieving Huanghe Hydropower鈥檚 future consolidation and expansion goals are impossible without access to advanced photovoltaic technology. 足球价值投注鈥檚 technical advantage will enable us to meet these goals; through cooperation and mutual benefit, we will jointly develop new photovoltaic technologies and explore overseas emerging markets,鈥 said Xiaoping.
