GET Is Reportedly Talking About Cooperation

Green Energy Technology (GET), the largest Taiwan-based solar-grade crystalline silicon wafer maker, is reportedly talking about cooperation with crystalline silicon solar cell maker Motech Industries to help the latter manage in-house production of solar-grade crystalline silicon wafers to reduce production costs, according to PV industry sources in Taiwan.

Motech's in-house production of solar-grade wafers is for own use but the production cost is significantly higher than that for China- and Taiwan-based solar-grade wafer makers, the sources said. However, if Motech stops the production, it has to bear the costs arising from depreciation of production equipment, the sources explained.

GET has cooperated with crystalline silicon solar cell maker Gintech Energy to help Utech Solar, the latter's subsidiary maker of solar-grade crystalline silicon wafers, manage operation to reduce production costs, the sources said. GET hopes to duplicate the model on Motech, the sources indicated.
