		<description><![CDATA[A leading player among the global solar companies, Canadian Solar Inc. (CSIQ) has delivered its solar modules to saferay for an 8.5 MW power plant located in Lindenhof near Neubrandenburg in the German state of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern. The photovoltaic system will use 36,000 CS6P-P solar modules manufactured and supplied by Canadian Solar. These modules are of high quality, reliability and have the capacity to produce clean and cheap energy. The project company saferay is about to complete the solar park installation with the plant expected to be ready in December 2011. Recently, in September 2011, saferay completed the Senftenberg II/III 78 MW partial complex in Brandenburg, which is part of the world&#8217;s largest 166 MW solar power plant, using modules provided by Canadian Solar. Therefore, with this assistance to build the ]]></description>

(PLD), a leading industrial real estate investment trust (REIT), has recently fully leased ‘Prologis Tolleson Distribution Center 1’ – a 302,600 square foot warehouse property in Tolleson, Arizona, to an unnamed retailer for an undisclosed amount. The leased facility was earlier acquired in August 2011 for $9.95 million in an all-cash transaction. The lease-up of the distribution facility within a short span of time highlights the inherent quality of the asset portfolio of Prologis and signifies the strong demand of large blocks of industrial space in the Phoenix sub-market. To capitalize on this opportunity, Prologis presently has approximately 3 million square feet of operating assets in Phoenix, as well as a land pool to accommodate approximately 2.5 million square feet of additional development in the region.

		<description><![CDATA[A leading provider of semiconductor and solar chips, MEMC Electronic Materials Inc. (WFR) recently announced the termination of the solar wafer supply agreement between its Singapore unit and Suntech Power Holding Co. Ltd. (STP). MEMC will receive a handsome $120.0 million from Suntech for the termination. The original deal between MEMC Singapore Pte Ltd. and Suntech, the leading Chinese solar energy company, was struck in 2006. Per this 10-year deal, MEMC was required to supply solar wafers at a predetermined price. As an advance, Suntech deposited a certain security amount and allowed MEMC to take over up to a 4.99% stake in it. However, persistent downturn in polysilicon prices led the companies to amend the contract twice in 2009. Accordingly, prices were cut and volumes were raised. But as further ]]></description>

The panels would be utilized for a solar power plant being built in Maricopa County of Phoenix, Arizona. The 150-megawatt photovoltaic power plant is titled the Mesquite Solar I project. The project is part of a larger complex that Sempra is planning to build to provide up to 700 MW of solar power. The first phase is slated to start construction in 2011 and is expected to be finished in 2013. The construction is expected to generate about 200 local jobs. Sempra has already won a deal to sell power produced at the plant to Pacific Gas &#38; Electric Corporation (PCG) over a 20-year contract. Sempra Generation, a unit of Sempra ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Suntech Power Holdings Co. (STP) is one of the largest producers of PV solar modules in the world. The company is prudently expanding its revenue base to divergent markets around the globe, along with increasing megawatts shipped. To cater to this rising demand, the company is furiously ramping up its capacity with plans to attain 2.4GW of cell &#38; module and 1.2GW of wafer by the end of 2011. Along with this higher conversion efficiency through its Pluto technology-enabled modules, China&#8217;s subsidy program and improving operating efficiencies adds visibility to the story. In light of the above positives we feel the current discounted valuation of the company is unwarranted. Thus we upgrade our recommendation on the company to Outperform.

However rising silicon wafer costs and weaker selling prices led to Suntech posting lower profits in the quarter compared to the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 23 cents per EPADS. Operational Results Suntech registered total net revenues of $743.7 million, an increase of 19% from $625.1 million in the second quarter of 2010 and an increase of 57.2% from $473.1 million in the third quarter of 2009.

The certification is mandatory for solar panels to be used for the Renewables Cash-Back Scheme and therefore, vital for Evergreen Solar. The Renewables Cash-Back Scheme has been active in the UK since April 2010. Per the scheme, homeowners and communities along the coast who install solar panels are even paid for the electricity they generate and consume themselves. Given the fact that the UK has more than 19,000 miles of coastline, the certification is an early Christmas gift for Evergreen Solar.

The current Zacks Consensus Estimate for the third quarter is $1.92 per share, representing an annualized growth of 7.3%. Previous Quarter Performance First Solar posted second-quarter 2010 earnings of $1.84 surpassing the Zacks Consensus earnings per share (EPS) estimate of $1.60 by 24 cents. It however, fell short of the year-ago quarterly EPS of $2.11. First Solar’s quarterly revenues were $587.9 million, up 12% from $525.9 million in the second quarter of 2009, soundly beating the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $550 million. The upside came from increased production volumes and systems revenue, partially offset by a decline in pricing and lower Euro exchange rates.

(ICE) launched the Novation Consent=Confirmation (C=C) initiative through its ICE Link platform on Sept 12, in order to smooth the credit default swap (CDS) processes in the market. Over the past year, regulators had been seeking such an operation that could make automated OTC derivative transaction more cost-effective and efficient while also providing transparency. Finally, ICE Link’s C=C came as the answer for such a system. The C=C service offers a counterparty the option of closing their position or allocating it to another counterparty, also known as &#8220;novating&#8221; the trade. To attain legal confirmation for these processes, counterparties had to face quite a number of predicaments since such processes were generally prone to single or multiple errors in the trade data. ]]></description>

For that matter, China did a lot of pointing right back at the U.S. Both seemed bound and determined to blame the other for the summit’s failure. But while the Obama administration talks a good talk about green technology, China actually does something about it. A recent Bloomberg New Energy Finance report shows China spent $34.6 billion on renewable energy in 2009. That works out to over $94.7 million per day, nearly twice what the U.S. did. More over, Bloomberg didn’t include government spending in that story. It covered private investment in renewable energy projects.

However it comfortably beat fiscal 2008 EPADS of 20 cents. Operational Results Suntech registered total net revenue of $583.6 million in the reported quarter, compared to $473.1 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2009 and $414.4 million in the year-ago quarter. The upside came from higher shipments along with a boost in demand from Germany due to the expectation of a mid-year subsidy adjustment in Germany.

In terms of that filtering down to solar stocks, however, the progress is more intermittent. The solar energy sector was one of the bright investment spots in 2007 and 2008, but was conspicuously absent from the big rally of 2009. A closer look reveals that there isn’t actually too much holding the sector back in the United States. And I’ve got five companies aiming to take advantage of this up-and-coming area… From Science Project to Mainstream Power Source… Almost Back in 1954, Daryl Chapin and Calvin Fuller created the first photovoltaic ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[by David Fessler, Energy and Infrastructure Expert Friday, December 11, 2009: Issue #1156 By the time 2009 is in the books, the record will show that solar energy stocks endured a tough year. Hardly surprising, with many Wall Street analysts (yours truly not among them) lambasting the sector for much of the year. What’s more, they also expect the carnage to continue into 2010, with losses predicted for as many as half the world’s solar companies. The analysts’ “thought” process – and I use that term loosely – goes something like this: First, they suggest that a “huge” oversupply of polysilicon (the raw material used to make silicon-based panel assemblies) exists. But this is only partially true, as increasing panel sales are rapidly eating into this oversupply. The analysts’ next ]]></description>
