The
world "fortune 500" bumpy fate of photovoltaic (pv)
Dupont
(Du Pont) chairman and chief executive, Alan KuErMan (Ellen Kullman), said the
second quarter of the global photovoltaic modules output is expected to decline
by about 15%.
KuErMan
pointed out that the expected decline in sharp contrast with the second quarter
of 2012, is expected in the second half of the year will usher in more strong
sales at that time, so the yield rose strongly.
Demand
growth slows, however, the yield increase contributed to inventory backlog.
Responded,
an analyst at the discussion in the first quarter of 2013 financial results on
a conference call to ask questions, the executive said, in the second quarter
is expected to yield the downturn will lead to continuous quarterly growth in
the second half of this year, despite its internal estimates that year would be
flat compared to the same component production.
KuErMan
commented: "although the second quarter of last year is very strong.
In
retrospect, there are a lot of excess capacity at the time, it is showed that
in the second quarter this year will close some of the reasons, component
production will be reduced 15%.
What's
worse, we are expected to flatten out photovoltaic installation this year, it
means that there must be some progress this year, will be improved in the third
quarter, in the fourth quarter to improve again."
Dupont
reports, the department of electronics and communications, including its
photovoltaic (pv) business unit, due to the low pv related sales,
solar panels for sale
in the
first quarter of 2013 was $616 million, down 9% compared with the previous
quarter.
Dupont
said, however, increased market share, but this is offset by the component
manufacturers to reduce material usage.
Due
to lower sales and operating income of $49 million, down $10 million.
