11. SCHOTT Solar is the oldest still active solar manufacturer in the world. Exhibitions
India spoke to Amit Barve, General Manager for Solar Business of SCHOTT in India, and
Alden Lee, Sales Director Asia & Pacific, about SCHOTT Solar´s activities in India.
1. How important is the Indian market for SCHOTT Solar?
Lee: India is one of our focus markets in Asia. We are actively involved in the market for
more than 10 years now. The need for energy is growing here so fast that India has to utilize
renewable energy in order to meet the ever growing demand. Therefore India plays a
Amit Barve significant role in our global growth strategy. Alden Lee
2. What can a German company offer to Indian customers?
Barve: Most important criteria for Large scale Solar power plants is the energy yield over a period of 15-20 years and not the nominal
installed capacity. We have Solar modules in the field for more than 25 years and they still performing extremely well. We can provide
Solar Modules with highest international standard to Indian companies who are looking forward to durable and reliable products.
3. Which product is most suitable for the Indian market?
Lee: In regions with hot climatic conditions modules with amorphous silicon technology, as the SCHOTT ASI TM, is the best choice.
Phoenix Solar, a large scale System Integrator and Installer has made a test in Germany: During the summer ASI has outperformed
crystalline panels by far, while crystalline panels performed better in winter time. If the summer is even hotter and longer than in
Germany, then ASI produces much more energy than crystalline panels. In Malaysia we have test plants and ASI is producing 15-20 %
more kWh than the crystalline panels!
4. What is the price difference between ASI and crystalline panels in India?
Barve: Since ASI needs much less silicon, we can sell our ASI modules around 20 % cheaper in India than crystalline modules. With the
added benefit of extra yield and less cost customers can enjoy double benefit of more kWh for less money!
5. Where do you produce these modules?
Lee: We produce all of our ASI modules in Germany. The production is fully automated to ensure consistent high quality of our product.
