SCHOTT Solar and Hareon are essentially equal owners of this company. Together, we will build a new module plant in Taicang that should already go into operation in the spring of The new site will have a production capacity of 300 MW by the end of the year. Further expansion is planned. SCHOTT Solar will reach a total production capacity of 830 MW at the end of the year. The joint venture will only manufacture SCHOTT Solar modules and in SCHOTT Solar quality. The joint venture will receive its cells from both Hareon and SCHOTT Solar.

Price trend: good for consumers, a challenge for vendors
Ug The solar industry has experienced a rather dynamic development in recent years. The prices for solar power systems on roofs have declined by almost half since This decline has been driven and still is being driven mainly by the module manufacturers. At the module level, prices have fallen even more sharply than at the system level (inverters, cabling, installation costs). This price trend is, of course, good news for consumers. It is also quite pleasing in terms of the general development and social acceptance of solar power. The cheaper it is, the more it will spread. SCHOTT is also very much in favor of this. But price pressure represents an enormous challenge for companies! 13

Global growth of the PV market Prospects by region
Ug: We definitely see potential for medium term growth with PV. Even if the forecasts also vary by several percentage points: according to the forecasts, the long-term growth rates with respect to installation will be between 12-18%. The market is still very volatile and it is thus very difficult for companies to make predictions. After the market nearly doubled in 2010, we expect to see a slowdown in growth in 2011. The German market in particular can be expected to cool down after excessive earlier realization of sales in 2010 due to the premature reduction in the EEG. In Europe, the key foreign markets are Italy, France and Spain. The situation in Italy is very positive. In the years to come, the barrier of more than 3000 MW of installed PV power could well fall (+20%). We are likely to see a revival in Spain, but starting from a lower level. Despite the reduction in the feed-in tariff, France will also remain an important market. The future growth regions are in the U.S. and Asia. The aim must be to further reduce our dependency on the German market. SCHOTT Solar plans to generate about half of its revenue abroad. To this end, we are already active in markets where the PV business is developing. SCHOTT Solar has either its own national subsidiaries here or uses the sales structure of SCHOTT Group. This allows us to respond in a flexible manner to changes in demand in individual markets – for example, unscheduled reductions in funding as in the Czech Republic. Conclusion: In foreign markets, as well, we are seeing significant efforts to limit the expansion of PV. All in all, the prices will remain under strong pressure.

SCHOTT Solar remains on expansion course
SCHOTT Solar is growing faster than the market and plans to rank among the top 10 solar power companies in 2014. Ug How is SCHOTT Solar currently getting along? In the last financial year, we grew faster than the market and increased our export share. The first quarter of the fiscal year 2011 (October - December) was characterized by high double-digit sales growth with a further steep increase in our export share. We have been able to compensate for the decline in Germany by relying on foreign markets. We’ve been able to hold our own despite a difficult competitive environment because we decided to impose a strict cost management program. Since 2009, SCHOTT Solar has reduced its production costs considerably. To realize further cost reduction potential, we plan to expand our production capacities significantly to 830 MW. This will allow us to benefit from economies of scale and remain competitive on the cost side. To realize this growth, we went out and looked for a strong partner. Stephan Schaller will now fill you in on the details. StS Ladies and gentlemen, in recent months, we have repeatedly stressed that we plan to build up additional manufacturing capacity in Asia. *CAGR Quelle: EPIA 2010, moderater Ansatz Quelle: SCHOTT Solar

Market Update FIT changes
The government have reviewed the FIT in the UK. A "comprehensive review" of the FIT scheme was undertaken due to growing evidence that large-scale solar farms were putting at risk small-scale renewable projects, such as those found at homes and small businesses. Whilst the FIT incentive scheme was introduced in April 2010 to kick-start renewable energy generation in the UK. The £400 million a year incentive scheme (now £360 M), is in danger over massive overheating. Therefore, on Feb 7th DECC announced drastic review measures and formally put forward the findings June 8th 2011 The “review” has only looked at schemes of over 50 kilowatt (kW) in size. FIT rates have dropped and effectively will kill off all projects above 50kW. Index-Linked takes the FIT up 2p April 1st 2011 to 43p

SCHOTT Solar quality philosophy
23 SCHOTT Solar quality philosophy Proven performance stability Worldwide installed test installations 10 climatic chambers 2 x IEC (TCT / DHT) +additional Combi-test Strict test criteria High internal quality standards

Proven long life and excellent performance stability
In a long-term study conducted by the Fraunhofer-Institute the SCHOTT Solar modules still achieved over 90 % of their original performance, even after 26 years. For consumers means decades of reliable performance which equals higher yields over time. Location: Fraunhofer ISE, Freiburg Year of construction: Module type: PQ 10/40/01 (38.4 Pmpp) Technology: Polycrystalline, double glass Nominal output: kWp Results of measurement of performance available in German, English, Italian and French under Updated Report available shortly.

Modules with powerful and stable output as a result of 2 times stricter climatic chamber tests
SCHOTT Solar tests its modules with climate tests that are twice as strict as required by the IEC standard. With that SCHOTT Solar lies clearly above average. This is also a reason for the extraordinary durability of our modules.

High Weather Resistance and high mechanical stability is the basis for a long time durability
The most important product features of SCHOTT Solar modules 2. Frame profile flattened towards the glass: optimal self cleaning and reduction of the shadowing 1. Structures front glass: Less reflection, higher efficiency, lower output degradation 3. Weather-resistant junction box 8. Thermally hardened glass: high mechanical stability 4. Optimized cell distances: against cell connector break and for raised long term stability 7. Non-extruded, torsion resistant aluminum profile frame: No freezing possible and high mechanical stability 5. Optimized distance between frame and cell: low shading 6. High-performance adhesion used to permanently apply the laminate to the frame: permanently mechanical stability

Higher energy yield through positive performance assortment
Up to 5 W more performance than indicated on the product label Positive performance assortment Each module is measured (flashed) individually. The modules are assorted positively on the basis of the measurement results (flash reports). Each module is delivered with a performance greater than indicated on the product label. The result: increased energy yields Example SCHOTT POLY® 230 W is delivered with a performance of between 230 and 235 Wp. Modules for this performance class which provide less than 230 Wp are excluded from this performance class. Measurement record All electrical measurements on modules are based on the standard of the Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energy. The measurement tolerance of the nominal output is ± 4 %

Up to 30 years linear performance guarantee.
35 Up to 30 years linear performance guarantee. SCHOTT Solar provides a 25-year linear performance guarantee on standard modules. For double-glas modules, SCHOTT Solar even provides a performance guarantee of 30 years.
