Chairman & CEO Dr. George Xiao of LXE, the market leader in Trichlorosilane (TCS) technologies for the solar industry, told an audience of over 1000 attendees at the 6th Solar Silicon Conference that it is the reliable TCS technology providers that are helping to change the rules in the production of Polysilicon, which in turn is opening a wealth of new markets and manufacturing opportunities.
“TCS production has been extremely challenging due to the inherited dangerous properties and process complexity with a large percent of those producing Polysilicon doing so for their own isolated use,” said Dr. Xiao. “Today, thanks to the efforts of many, TCS is available to new entrants to the industry thus being the catalyst for expansion and growth, and this change will ultimately impact cost and product availability.
“At LXE, we have had inquires from major international governments who are looking to develop the solar industry within their countries. Major chemical companies who acknowledged that, with the cracking of the TCS offering, the opportunities for production are tremendous and aligned with their production capabilities. Lastly, we are hearing from Wall Street who is eager to learn more to better understand the paradigm change and ultimate impact on the solar industry.
“At the end of the day, it is about the science being proven in technology leading to speed in the delivery of results centered on product purity, cost efficiencies, increased availability, safety, environmental stewardship, and more energy options for mankind.”
The Solar Silicon Conference organized by Solar Verlag GmbH, the experts behind the magazines PHOTON and PHOTON International, has emerged as the primary annual gathering of key players in Polysilicon and the leading source of information on latest advances in both technical and business areas.
