In fact, today, Siemens (China) is still the club's official website is introduced

It can "for large ground-based and rooftop photovoltaic power plant provides general contracting services and turn-key project"; Can "provide a wide range of solar thermal power generation solutions, including all the key components of one-stop solar panels china power plant solution", "providing nearly 70% of the solar thermal power plant parts".

And so, as you can to provide total service package and components of thermal power generation business (business) of field, it is Siemens solar business advantage in the plate (photovoltaics, Siemens provides total package service only).

So-called solar-thermal power generation, namely by focus the rays of heat, heat water or produce steam air driven generators.

Although its and photovoltaic power generation, belong to the solar industry, but compared with pv "using polycrystalline panels that convert light energy into electricity power generation principle, between the two very different.

Zhongguancun science and technology association relevant personage introduces to the reporter, "the advantage of the solar-thermal power generation is that it does not need poly panels of light energy conversion, so there is no need to polysilicon, also does not exist naturally pollution problem.

In addition, on the premise of monocrystalline solar panel power stations reaches a certain size, its electricity from photovoltaic has certain advantages, according to international experience (theoretical), 1000 mw thermal power plant electricity price could fall to $0.7 to $0.8 per KWH".

But in fact, with the worsening of the market situation, Siemens solar-thermal increasingly bumpy road.

For light business, Siemens in the given securities daily interview reply also noted, "due to the popularity of hot solar receiver level, in the present and predictable in the solar market is low, it makes acquisition plan is hard to meet the needs of buyers and sellers at the same time".

For this shut down its solar business department, Siemens the needed price, there are rumours that Siemens will cut 280 jobs, the vast majority of business in Israel.

Shut down the business cost nearly 50 million euros for the cost.

However, Siemens does not give the reporter the interview reply to confirm the above content and digital.

Its introduction, "Siemens decided to stop the production activities of the business and the business adjustment, enable Siemens to finish ongoing projects and to provide on-site service to existing customers, commitment to quality assurance".
