Dear Colleagues of the PV Industry,

SNEC 4th (2010) International Photovoltaic Power Generation Conference & Exhibition [SNEC (2010) PV POWER EXPO], which was approved by the Ministry of Science and Technology of the People’s Republic of China and jointly organized by 15 international associations and organizations, came to a successful end on May 8, 2010. Photovoltaic companies from 66 countries and regions such as Germany, UK, France, USA, Canada, Japan, Austria, Hungary, Italy, Holland, Switzerland, Belgium, Spain, Singapore, South Korea, Russia, India, Taiwan, etc. gathered in Shanghai for this grand occasion. 1,408 exhibitors, 85,000 sq. meter exhibition space and over 100,000 visitors have made SNEC (2010) PV POWER EXPO once again break the record of PV exhibitions previously held in Asia.

As the economic center of China, the world’s largest developing country, as well as a metropolis that has witnessed advanced technologies and market forces, Shanghai has naturally become the best business hub for PV-related aggregation, communication and expansion in China, Asia, and even the world. At SNEC2010, the industrial experts, scholars and entrepreneurs gathered here to discuss extensively on the trend of the solar and PV market, industry development strategies, policy directions, cutting-edge technologies, and so on.

It has been recognized that, the advantageous geographical location, strong government support and PV companies’ sensitivity to the Shanghai market compose the three important backbones for the rapid development of SNEC PV POWER EXPO.

Upon the previous success of four SNEC events, Shanghai New Energy Industry Association (SNEIA) plans to hold SNEC 5th (2011) International Photovoltaic Power Generation Conference & Exhibition [SNEC (2011) PV POWER EXPO] from February 22 to 24, 2011 at Shanghai New International Expo Center (SNIEC), China.

Let’s gear up for the new era of solar energy with best exhibits, wonderful design, warm reception and high-quality service!
