DEK Solar prepares to showcase pioneering PV3000 at AsiaSolar Energy Photovoltaic Exhibition and Forum

DEK Solar will be bringing its newly-introduced PV3000 metallization line to this year's AsiaSolar Energy Photovoltaic Exhibition and Forum, being held at Shanghai Mart from 30th March - 1st April. In addition to providing an opportunity for visitors to see the line in action, the exhibition will also enable attendees to find out more about the company's innovative approach to service and support.

Being demonstrated at the show, DEK's PV3000 photovoltaic metallization solution optimises solar cell manufacturing productivity by deploying multiple print heads in parallel. The display will show visitors how, if one head halts for operator attention, the others will continue to print - virtually eliminating downtime. Delivering six-sigma repeatability for capabilit

Based on preliminary figures, Phoenix Solar AG, a leading photovoltaic system integrator listed on the TecDAX, generated consolidated revenues of EUR 473.0 million in the financial year 2009, which corresponds to the upper range of the corridor forecast for revenues (EUR 430 - 480 million). Earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) came to EUR 12.2 million, which is also in line with guidance.

All in all, performance in the financial year 2009 was dominated by the German market (global market share of 40 - 50 percent), extremely volatile demand and an unexpectedly sharp downturn in the selling prices of photovoltaic systems. Moreover, business with photovoltaic power plants also su
