Rajasthan, India call for tender to establish a 200MW solar energy project, nearly a year after the sequestration project.

According to local media reports, the state-run Rajasthan Renewable energy company has posted on its website a tender notice, the construction of a 100MW solar power plant and 100MW thermal power plant.

The first tender Northwest National in the state in December last year called for a tender, it failed to conduct the auction. According to the document, this tender will start on January 11. According to the Indian Meteorological Department and the new energy and renewable energy sector to study the after Rajasthan mean solar irradiation days only in the neighboring state of Gujarat.

The contract applies to the 5 or 10MW PV project and 50MW thermal power stations. According to the agency's rules, the company can come to these two types of bids can also be imported equipment and technology to the project bid. Also said that developers will use the year to complete solar panel photovoltaic power stations and thermal power stations, two years to complete.

Tokyo Electron (TEL) to € 207 million to complete the acquisition of the silicon thin film equipment supplier Oerlikon Solar. According to a statement issued by Hiroshi Takenaka, President and CEO of TEL, the transaction was originally scheduled in early March 2012, will see Oerlikon Solar became TEL is a new "core" business unit in the future of the company play an important role in the development plan.

Takenaka said: "We look forward to further growth in demand for thin film silicon PV panels, especially for large-scale power plants in sunny areas of energy generation has their own superiority and cost advantages."

Takenaka large photovoltaic power plants with the largest thin-film solar manufacturers and project developers First Solar business model echoes.

Thin-film technology has also been noticed to improve the performance of its operating temperature, compared to traditional crystalline silicon components, its less loss of performance in high temperature environment, to maximize the conversion efficiency of crystalline silicon components. Takenaka said: "TEL mature advanced technology semiconductor production equipment business combined with Oerlikon Solar technology, we will be able to develop a more competitive equipment. Purpose of this acquisition is to build solar panels (PV) production equipment business as a new core business, will support the the TEL development strategy.

The reporter was informed from Laiyuan County, Hebei Province Government, China Power Investment the Hebei New Energy Power Generation Co. Ltd. will invest 12 billion yuan to build new energy generation projects in Laiyuan County. The Laiyuan has abundant solar cell energy resources, annual sunshine hours up to 2745 hours, up to 500 megawatts of solar energy resources, wind energy reached 600,000 kilowatts, is one of the richest areas of Hebei Province, solar energy and wind energy.

It is understood that the new energy power generation projects planned area of ​​6,000 acres, a total investment of 1.2 billion yuan, involving three townships Township, East the Baoxiang and gold group home wells Township. Construction 120MW solar and wind and solar power stations, a construction of 20MW photovoltaic power generation project, after the project is completed, the operating period of not less than 30 years.

China Power Investment Group is a nationwide five power generation groups one, CLP voted Hebei Electric Power Co., Ltd. Group of overall responsibility for managing electrical voted in Hebei owned assets and equity, company to build a clean energy base in its mission, to construction area clean type of energy enterprises as the goal.
