PVinsights: Big Buyers Eventually Dominate Pricing Negotiations
After prices hit the plateau in the previous weeks, polysilicon prices decline slightly this week as overseas polysilicon prices witness minor downward corrections. In overseas markets, as some stock pressures and liquidity needs still hang over some American producers and traders, some polysilicon dumping are still taking place, while Korean polysilicon suppliers have hold the prices firm. On the other hand, polysilicon prices in China remain stable this week. As the room for further price hike is unlikely and the demand in the downstream is not as strong as anticipated, the Chinese polysilicon suppliers have become more conservative in terms of pricing.

Chinese solar company opening local module factory in September
Victor A. Patton for Sacramento Business Journal: A solar module factory expected to bring more than 200 jobs to Sacramento is slated to begin production in mid-September at McClellan Business Park. It will be the first U.S. factory for Nanjing, China-based solar cell and module manufacturer China Sunergy Co, who on Thursday announced its subsidiary Sunergy America has agreed to lease a 140,000-square-foot manufacturing building — previously a plant where J.C. Penney made window coverings.
Simon Szeto, a Sunergy advisor, said the company will bring around 20 management staff from overseas and will hire other employees locally. The work being done at the factory will include putting together the modules. Each module includes a solar cell, an aluminum frame, tempered glass, cables and a junction box. The completed products, which can be placed on a ground mount or rooftop, will be sold commercially in the U.S, Szeto said. Cont'd...

Catch wave power in floating nets
Zhong Lin Wang for Nature: Nature provides three sources of energy for free: sunlight, air and gravity. Solar and wind power are increasingly exploited, gravity less so. Hydraulic power plants harvest energy from flowing rivers. Tidal energy can be gathered along some inlets and coasts. But few places are suitable for dams or barrages, which can also damage the environment.
By contrast, oceans cover about 70% of Earth’s surface. Wave energy is plentiful day and night, whatever the weather. Capturing it requires little land and raises few safety or security concerns. Yet hardly any of this ‘blue energy’ is being generated. Today’s wave farms produce no more than 1–10 megawatts at any one time, enough to power a town. No commercial wave farms currently exist.
