AEG Power Solutions Receives EUR36 Million Order for Delivery of Power
Supply Systems for Polysilicon Manufacturing Process
Belecke, Germany- February 1, 2011- AEG Power Solutions (AEG PS) and
GCL-Poly Energy Holdings Limited, Hong Kong, signed at the end of 2010 a
contract for Thyrobox(TM) M power supply systems to support GCL-Poly in
achieving its goal to expand its position as one of the leading polysilicon
and wafer suppliers in the world. The value of the contract totals EUR36
million.
AEG Power Solutions, wholly-owned by 3W Power Holdings S.A. (Euronext
Amsterdam 3WP, Frankfurt 3W9, ISIN GG00B39QCR01, WKN A0Q5SX), is a global
provider of premium power electronics. GCL-Poly is delivering high quality
and low cost silicon products to the solar industry and is headquartered in
Hong Kong with its principal business operations based in mainland China.
Thyrobox(TM) M, AEG PS's latest modular system, is the world's most compact
power solution for polycrystalline silicon deposition process. Depending
on the type of reactor, its footprint is about 25% smaller than previous
Thyrobox solutions, and up to 70% smaller than competing products. The
compact design reduces installation, commissioning and maintenance costs
for the entire energy supply as well as building costs. With advanced
process monitoring capabilities, a 0.95 power factor and more than 99%
energy efficiency, the Thyrobox(TM) M delivers unprecedented performance,
reliability and stability to polysilicon manufacturers worldwide.
After a decline and a steady period, the market for polysilicon is showing
signs of new growth, reflected by the number of new projects and capacity
expansions launched currently on a global base.
For many years, AEG Power Solutions has maintained excellent business
relations with GCL-Poly and proved to be one of their premium suppliers and
technology partners.
'The Chinese market, and especially the market for solar products, is
growing quickly and remains one of our business focuses for the coming
years. With the latest contract, GCL-Poly confirms the existing partnership
and proves its confidence in AEG PS as one of their leading technology
suppliers. We feel very honoured that we have been chosen to contribute to
GCL's success,' states Gladwyn De Vidts, AEG Power Solutions' Vice
President Power Control Systems.
'About 4 years ago, we started our cooperation with AEG PS, one of the top
global power system technology suppliers. It is our strategy to work only
with manufacturers that offer premium quality products. We are happy to
reinforce our good relationship with AEG PS,' says Mr. Shu Hua, the
Executive Director and President of GCL-Poly.
