Yesterday, the reporter learned from Foxconn that it will invest in Guangxi to build a research center, five solar component plants and 20 solar power plants.
Since last year, Foxconn has cooperated with photovoltaic company GCL-Poly to build a solar power station in Shanxi. At that time, Guo Taiming had publicly stated that he would invest 100 billion yuan in the field of solar photovoltaics in the Mainland. "Foxconn has been preparing for more than two years in the solar energy field. There is a dedicated team inside to do long-term layout instead of short-term profit." CIC Advisor Analyst Shen Hongwen believes that with strong financial strength and management experience, Foxconn has the ability to gain a foothold in the growing solar market.
However, at present, Foxconn has suffered serious losses in the OEM business. Foxconn International, which is listed in Hong Kong and mainly Nokia OEM, lost US $ 316 million in 2012, while Foxconn Technology Group, which is not listed and mainly Apple OEM, is uncharacteristically this year. Suspension of all factory recruitment, and even began to dismiss some employees. In the self-built retail channel that Guo Taiming has high hopes for, Foxconn is also losing again and again.
Analysts believe that the above factors have accelerated Foxconn's entry into the solar photovoltaic field. However, it is worth noting that at this stage, the domestic photovoltaic industry is in turmoil, and there is an overcapacity and loss situation in the industry. Wuxi Suntech, China's largest solar panel manufacturer, filed for bankruptcy last week.
