Report Feedback
"I
have been using and purchasing information on the photovoltaics
industry for nearly 25 years. I have well established sources
and am skeptical of newcomers trying to sell reports - often
without sufficient detail or rigor. I'm happy to say that
ENF's new report meets my standards for quality of information
and provides an excellent new source of information on the
PV industry." - Bill Rever, Strategic Marketing Manager,
BP Solar
"Thanks very much for your reports, I believe
your reports are of great use to people in the PV industry.
We used to collect and analyse this information by ourselves
which consumed too much time. These reports by ENF definitely
meet our requirements, and help us understand the industry
better."
- Li Wei, Director of Management Department, Yingli Solar
"Your report was very useful for us. We appreciate the
Chinese market survey a lot."
- Fabrizio Bonemazzi, Marketing Manager, ENEL

To order the report, simply send an email to kit@enf.cn with a couple of sentences confirming your
purchase (we are happy to use your own PO templates if preferred):
- “I hereby order the
ENF 2006 European Cell and Panel manufacturers report at a cost
of €700. Please send the invoice to XXXX”
- “I hereby order the
ENF 2006 Chinese Cell and Panel manufacturers report at a cost
of €700. Please send the invoice to XXXX”
- “I hereby order the
ENF 2006 European and Chinese Cell and Panel manufacturers reports
at a cost of €1000. Please send the invoice to XXXX”
Note: Most companies who are not already ENF clients will be sent an invoice and asked for advanced payment before the
report is sent. Existing customers will immediately be sent the report when report purchase is confirmed.

Market Survey Methodology
|
|
Verbal data collection chosen because:
A) The solar industry
tends to ignore emails
B) People do not take time to read questions
carefully, and there are factors that must be stressed (to
exclude use of OEM, to use end-of-year capacities etc.)
C)
It gave ENF the opportunity to collect additional details on
each company through analyst discussion
|
Quantitative information
collected:
- Sales
in MWp from 2002-2005, and 2006 estimation (plus internal usage
of cells to make into panels for cell manufacturers)
- End-of-year capacity in MWp
from 2002-2005, and 2006-2007 estimations
- (Europe only) Details
of how capacity was calculated (factory working time for calculation,
actual factory working time, nominal/realistic calculation)
- End-of-year staff numbers from 2003-2005
(Europe only) Qualitative
information collected (from many, but not all companies:
- Wafer/cell
supply situation for 2006
- Details of planned capacity expansion
- Other important strategic plans
|
Market Survey Methodology- Europe |
Cell manufacturers:
- 19 cell manufacturers included in the survey
- ENF collected full details* from 17 of these companies
- 1 company
provided only partial information
- 1 company refused to participate
Panel manufacturers:
- 66 panel manufacturers included in the survey
- ENF collected full details* from 58 of these companies
- 6 companies
provided only partial information (2 of these provided everything
except capacity definition)
- 2 companies refused to participate
- 4 small companies <100kWp production left out of the survey
due to only partial information collected
* Around 1% of numbers
needed to estimated, but enough details were provided by each
company to give a very accurate estimation.
|
Market Survey Methodology- China |
Cell manufacturers:
- 25 cell manufacturers included in the survey (Updated from 11)
- ENF collected full details* from 21 of these companies
- 4 company provided only partial information (3 companies provided all numbers except 2007 capacity)
Panel manufacturers:
- 131 panel manufacturers included in the survey (Updated from 69)
- ENF collected full details* from 105 of these companies
- 26 companies
provided partial information (most of these provided everything
except one number, such as 2007 forecast)
- A further 34 mostly
small companies were identified (in addition to the 131 included),
but either refused to participate or ENF was unable to contact
them within the survey time-frame (missing companies are estimated
to account for a further 4% market volume)
* Around 6% of panel
numbers and 1% of cell numbers needed to be estimated, but enough
details were provided to give a fairly accurate estimation.
|
Coverage
|
The survey coverage is companies in Europe and China. It includes
all facilities that are directly controlled by that company,
and excludes OEM purchased production (eg. using another company
to make cells/panels with your brand).
|
Capacity Definition - Europe
|
ENF has adjusted all given capacities to two “Realistic Production
Capacity” end-of-year numbers. The first based on actual factory
usage time(actual capacity), and the second based on theoretical 24 hour/day 350
day/year theoretical usage time (potential capacity).
The numbers are production that
could be achieved, not nominal. Eg. If a company has an end-of-year
cell capacity of 100MWp, and 100MWp of wafer supply, then they
could actually produce 100MWp of cells in 12 months. Some companies
measured their capacity as ‘nominal capacity’ which did not account
for downtime factors such as machine cleaning and maintenance.
Of 19 cell manufacturers, ENF obtained the capacity definition
from all 19:
- 4 measure with nominal capacity
- 2 measure with more
shifts than actually used
- 2 measure with more days/year than
actually used
Of 65 panel manufacturers, ENF obtained the capacity
definition from 61:
- 2 measure with nominal capacity
- 15 measure
with more shifts than actually used
- 4 measure with more days/year
than actually used

ENF has put 6 man-months of work into the
European and Chinese market surveys, and we are confident
that the results are extremely good value for money.
