Indeed, Solyndra was the first company to receive a US Department of Energy ** guarantee program, and one billion startups**, but it was bankrupt. The company was described by the Republican Party as a failure of Obama’s economic stimulus plan and was called by the Party....** The Party may not have thought of any countermeasures.
But the truth is: Whether or not Solyndra is a good investment, whether or not you think the government should bet on any particular technology or company, regardless of whether Solyndra is like a blogger who is indirectly injured by a trade war with China, whether or not Into the political struggle, the solar industry is still a good investment. Given that Solyndra was not the first bankrupt solar company this year, this argument may be absurd. But when you understand the reasons behind the bankruptcy of all these companies, you may not see a problem with an industry, but a market is gradually maturing.
Despite the simplistic trend, the solar industry is actually complex. This is a global energy industry influenced by many market factors, from supplying products to technological innovation to completely different policies in countries. Among all the factors, there are five very direct reasons why they decided that the solar industry is still a good investment, despite bankruptcy and falling revenues.
1. The price of polysilicon has fallen by 89% since 2008
A few years ago, polysilicon was scarce and the price was high. This has led to the development of thin-film technology companies, such as Solyndra, which reduces raw material costs. Polysilicon prices fell faster than anyone expected, and photovoltaic products began to have a price advantage. Polysilicon prices have continued to fall, so that some solar manufacturers have said that photovoltaic power generation has achieved parity. SolarSia CEO and PowerLight founder Dan Shugar said: "I think solar costs may continue to decline in the future."
2. European electricity tariff subsidy policy is still changing the tax return policy - the government's high taxation to promote the application of renewable energy and reduce the cost to pay - has made Spain, Italy, France, Germany and the United Kingdom become the United States in the past 10 years Solar companies favor the market. The application rate of solar energy will gradually increase, and the tax return policy will also be terminated, but this cannot be predicted. Spain unwittingly opened its own market, and the solar industry is in a period of rapid development. France, Italy and the United Kingdom have terminated their tax return policy and no longer protect their solar companies. Germany started to gradually reduce the amount of tax refunds, but there are still solar companies making wrong estimates. These reasons led some companies to seek new markets, while other European companies producing solar energy products still enjoy tax rebate subsidies. Other companies are looking for new markets as early as possible.
3. India's solar market is booming The Indian government has introduced preferential measures for domestic companies, but the high temperature in the country has forced the solar industry to use alternative materials. Companies that can provide these materials have either worked with Indian companies or have found a good market after solving India’s complex financial burden. The cadmium telluride panels produced by the Colorado AboundSolar company are resistant to high temperatures. The company has already moved the market from Europe to India. "The only problem with India is that it cannot provide enough of these panels."
4. Corporate (commercial) and utility-grade solar energy projects are on track. Solar panel prices have fallen, and companies have also worked hard to reduce prices. Utilities are seizing the opportunity to implement large-scale solar projects that they had previously intended only. Shugar explained that “For example, California has 0.3 megawatts of extensive solar power plant operations everywhere, but there are 8.6 megawatts waiting for signing contracts, and 10 megawatts that have been announced for development.
"A lot of contracts will enjoy preferential market prices - basically the new natural gas prices announced by the California Energy Commission, at which the company will sign contracts. So despite the fact that many people signed contracts, the prices were very low at the time. Now these projects Can be performed.
At the same time, for companies, a wide range of low prices not only encourage companies to purchase their own solar systems (rather than signing shop purchase contracts for solar energy, and systems for solar companies), but also start building projects that were previously excluded. "Low prices mean that it is easier to plan solar projects," said Joseph Roth, director of public affairs at IKEA.
ABI's recent report predicts that the United States will be the largest solar market in 2013 due to large-scale installations. Although current solar panel products are basically exported, this forecast brings a good prospect.
In fact, all the signs show that large-scale solar energy projects will develop rapidly. Regardless of the market volatility of photovoltaic panels, Abengoa’s polythermal solar plant in the Mojave Desert in California received US$1.2 billion** from the Department of Energy. Due to the bankruptcy of Solyndra, this ** will no doubt be subject to strict supervision, but this ** will help the project succeed.
5. Since the price of solar modules is already cheap, the solar industry is preparing to improve the prices of solar modules in other areas. The solar industry is preparing to cut the cost of system balance. A report released by GreentechMedia stated that a green technology report predicts that these costs will exceed module costs in 2012, and that non-profit organizations such as the National Energy Laboratory and the Rocky Mountain Institute are conducting research, but the solar energy industry denies the matter. At the same time, the lack of installers and consultants has basically solved the old problems that have plagued the industry. Work opportunities for installation of solar equipment are increasing, and the level of knowledge and skills of installers is also rising. Roth said, “There will be more solar equipment manufacturers and installers in the future, so the market competition will be more intense, and the level of expertise will also be increased. As a solar energy equipment purchaser, we think there are enough products to compare and select when selecting products. ."

JHK Door Industry Wenge Veneer Door Skin is popular in middle east, Russian and European market, in which clients are satisfied with our porducts. They can produce very nice wenge veneer doors.
Wenge is a close-grained African hardwood that is dark enough to be a substitute for ebony. The tree that produces wenge wood -- Millettia laurentii -- has been highly exploited as a raw material for floors, paneling and furniture, and is considered endangered. For this reason, wenge logs are often cut into thin strips called veneer. These are glued to a plywood or softwood substrate to make plywood, tables, cabinets and other furniture items.
Wenge has a Janka hardness rating of 1630 -- some sources quote it slightly higher -- but either way, it's about half as hard as rosewood and ebony, which are two species it resembles. It isn't necessarily an easier wood to work, however. It wears down saw blades, and because the grain is highly textured, it's difficult to sand. A more serious drawback to working with wenge is that it splinters easily, and splinters under your skin can easily get infected. Despite these problems, it is an attractive hardwood in a rustic sort of way.
