- Roth&Rau AG wins major order worth EUR 92 million
- Indian customer orders complete wafer production system
- New orders now reach EUR 250 million
Hohenstein-Ernstthal, 24 June 2010 - Roth&Rau AG has received a major
order worth EUR 92 million to supply a well-known Indian solar company with
a wafer production line. A term of around 13 months has been assumed for
this major project. The order is not expected to be reflected in the
companys sales before 2011.
'This major order underlines the enormous development potential harboured
by our turnkey business,' commented Dr. Dietmar Roth, CEO of Roth&Rau AG.
'We have seen increased demand, especially in Asia, for the extension of
our turnkey products both upstream and downstream. In recent months we have
focused more closely on wafer production and deliberately expanded our
expertise in this area. Not only that, offering wafer production systems
enables us to access sales markets for our two new silicon crystallisation
products, SiNUS 840 and TiTUS 1200.' Roth&Rau has successfully marketed
turnkey lines for use in the production of crystalline silicon solar cells
since 2006 already and is now one of the world's leading providers in this
area. In its thin film business, moreover, since the beginning of this year
Roth&Rau has also been offering turnkey production lines for use in the
manufacture of cadmium telluride-based solar modules.
This Indian customer already placed an order for several complete cell
production systems with Roth&Rau at the end of 2009. 'Wafer and cell
production development are now available from a single source. This
generates synergy effects at customers in terms of their project handling
and ramp-up expenses. At the same time, Roth&Rau can itself draw on its
longstanding experience in the cell line project business when handling
such projects,' explained Dr. Roth. 'This major order means that we can now
report total new orders of EUR 250 million in the 2010 financial year to
date,' added company CFO, Carsten Bovenschen.
