Information Technology revolutionized the way we buy things (Amazon, eBay), how we get information (Google, Wikipedia, the decline of newspapers), and how we interact with our peers (Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn). Yet so far, it has had little transformative impact on energy. Tim Healy, CEO of EnerNOC (ENOC), the world's largest third party provider of Demand Response to utilities and grid operators, thinks that's about to change.INVENTEC KDDI KLATENCOR KONINKLIJKE KPN LAM RESEARCH LIBERTY GLOBAL
Solar power component manufacturers in China have either trimmed their expected second quarter revenues and shipments or terminated long-term solar wafer contracts, possibly reacting from a sharp decline in prices of key solar parts reported in June.
Chinese polysilicon producer Daqo New Energy has revised its second quarter financial guidance announced on May 9, saying its earnings have been hit hard by price reductions across the photovoltaic supply chain.
The company now expects its total revenue to be around $70 million to $71 million, compared to a prior guidance range of $92 million to $95 million.
"The reduction in revenue guidance is mainly due to less shipment in the downstream product, wafer and module," said Jimmy Lai, chief financial officer of the company.
Daqo will ship less polysilicon in the upcoming quarter, from 950 to 1000 tons in the previous guidance down to 970 tons to 990 tons. Expected solar wafer shipments were also brought down from 7 megawatts to 0.7 MW, followed by the company?s own branded PV modules from 14 MW to 4 MW.
However, expected shipments of subcontracted PV modules for customers in the upcoming quarter were actually raised in the revised financial guidance from 2.5 MW to 8 MW.
Last week, Suntech Power Holdings Co., Ltd., the world?s largest producer of silicon-based solar panels terminated a 10-year solar wafer supply contract with MEMC Singapore Pte. Ltd. Dr. Zhengrong Shi, Suntech's chairman, said the agreement will ?help [the company] benefit from the continuing drop in silicon and wafer prices.?
Ending the contract will reportedly save the Wuxi, China-based company in Jiangsu province about $400 million partly from maximizing its internal wafer output.
Cloudy solar supply chain
Last month, the price of solar-grade polysilicon, the essential raw material for manufacturing solar panels that capture sunlight and convert it to electricity, dropped 28 percent to $53.4 per kilogram month-on-month, according to a Bloomberg New Energy Finance published on June 17 saying that the price of multicrystalline silicon wafers also slid by 23 percent in June to a record low of $2.39 a piece.
Multicrystalline silicon cell prices were down 15 percent to $0.92 per watt.
Module prices are falling at a slower rate with a 6.5 percent decline in June, bringing crystalline silicon modules to $1.68 per watt. Chinese manufacturers are offering modules at significant discounts, with prices at $1.49/W compared with modules manufactured outside of China priced at $1.79/W.
The research firm solar module prices are now 58 percent lower than in the third quarter of 2008.
Polysilicon prices along with other components began falling during the economic recession last 2009. The prices were a boon for manufacturers like First Solar, whose profits rose because manufacturing costs fell by buying cheaper parts.
First Solar is profiting because its cadmium-telluride solar cells cost less than half that of traditional polysilicon- based cells to manufacture.
In April 2009, the Arizona-based company more than tripled its first quarter profits to $164.6 million, or $1.99 a share, from $46.6 million, or 57 cents a share, a year earlier.
In comparison, SunPower, which manufactures crystalline silicon-based solar panels, saw its profits fall as a result of rising polysilicon prices. Its revenue for the first quarter of 2009 was $214 million compared to revenues of $401 million in the fourth quarter of 2008.
SunPower eventually sold a majority stake in its company to French oil giant Total.
Martin Simonek, solar analyst at Bloomberg New Energy Finance, said in June report that prices will further decline across the solar supply chain since companies no longer supported by subsidies would look for new markets and unload their supply with lower prices.
"Currently the markets are oversupplied with modules, as manufacturers seek to reduce their inventories in markets that are demanding cheap modules because of reductions in subsidies,? said Mr. Simonek.
?Producers are preparing for a painful consolidation that could see several players exit the solar industry," he added.

An interesting event is going on in the United Arab Emirates. The McDonald stores out there are actually running their trucks using waste vegetable oil produced in their own vats. Neutral Fuels which is Dubai based had made an announcement Sunday that the company has entered a new deal which includes the conversion of vegetable oil which is found in the UAE McDonald?s outlets into 100 percent of biodiesel. This is going to help power the delivery trucks of the fast food chain all over the Gulf country.
Last year the tests for biodiesel had started and at the end of this May, they had started to produce this for the fast food giant. Karl W. Feilder who is the chairman of the Neutral Group had said that this project was exciting for them because this was a really innovative idea, which no one had ever tried out in the UAE. He also said that his excitement was because they were using a fuel which was around 50 per cent more clean that what the usual diesel is. Also it gives a very low carbon footprint since it comes from a ?waste vegetable product?.
McDonalds says that this is a small step in huge plans that it has set for the future. They are also a part of the largest environmentalist group in the Emirates i.e. Emirates Environment Group. Rafic Fakih, the partner as well as managing director of McDonalds UAE said that in the UAE McDonald?s had managed to demonstrate a passionate as well long term commitment in order to invest in the environmental initiatives as well. In the Neutral facility in Dubai, around 1 million liters of biodiesel can be produced and if there is an increase in the number of shifts then double of that amount can be produced.
But this isn?t the first time that McDonald?s is running its cars on vegetable oil. The same has been done for their outlets in England and recently in Austria. But then in the Middle East it is the very first time that any company is taking on a venture like this. This is because the Middle East is a country where people don?t really use a lot of alternative fuels because of the existing low price of fuels. The vehicles of this fast food chain are also powered using pure biodiesel.
According to Feilder the main reason for this is because they want to prove to people that to run a car completely on biodiesel, exactly no modifications are required. They also want to show how brilliant that technology is and pure McDonald?s oil is that bio diesel can be produced at the same price as you would pay for oil.
