2、 Necessity and feasibility analysis of the project invested by the raised funds
(I) necessity of using raised funds
1. Meet the demand of photovoltaic power generation market and improve the profitability of the company
The scale of photovoltaic power generation industry continues to expand, which has become an important direction of energy structure reform in various countries. For example, major energy countries such as China, India, the United States and Saudi Arabia have announced large-scale photovoltaic energy plans. Some countries plan to account for more than 50% of renewable energy power generation by 2050. The development growth rate of photovoltaic industry ranks first among all kinds of renewable energy, It will become the main force to replace “old energy” in the future. According to the prediction of the International Renewable Energy Agency (Irena), in the future, photovoltaic power generation is expected to replace a large number of non renewable energy power generation in 2040. By 2030, the global photovoltaic cumulative installed capacity is expected to reach 1760gw, the power generation capacity will reach 7% of the global energy demand, the installed capacity will increase six times, and the annual average growth rate will reach 15%. According to the prediction of solarpower Europe, the photovoltaic power generation will reach 7368twh in 2040, accounting for 21% of the global power generation. It is also proposed to replace a large number of non renewable energy power generation, and the demand of photovoltaic power generation market will increase rapidly. In view of the good development prospect of the photovoltaic industry and the company’s long-term dilemma of “production capacity is less than the order”, the project plans to expand the production capacity of high-efficiency Cecep Solar Energy Co.Ltd(000591) modules. After the construction is completed, the annual production capacity of 5GW high-efficiency Cecep Solar Energy Co.Ltd(000591) modules can be realized, which will help to meet the rapidly expanding market demand and improve the profitability of the company.
2. Optimize product structure, integrate upstream and downstream resources and develop “integration” strategy
At this stage, among the world’s major photovoltaic module manufacturers, Chinese enterprises are developing relatively rapidly. With the maturity of China’s photovoltaic module industry, the industry competition is becoming more and more fierce, which is mainly caused by three reasons: serious product homogenization; Low technical barriers and low entry barriers for manufacturers; The information is complete and transparent, and the profit space is compressed. In order to reduce costs, increase efficiency and improve the yield rate, enterprises in the industry began to integrate upstream and downstream resources and develop to “integration”. Based on the judgment of the technical development, market scale and its own technical strength of the photovoltaic module industry, the company plans to actively optimize the product structure and formulate the “integrated” development strategy. According to the latest production technology and process, the project plans to build a digital and intensive chemical plant. The products will comply with the trend of large size, and the specifications will be fully compatible with the sizes of 210mm and below. It can produce component products integrating technologies such as double-sided, double glass, half sheet, multi main grid and large-size silicon wafer, which will help to optimize the product structure. In addition, after the completion of the project, the annual production capacity of 5GW high-efficiency Cecep Solar Energy Co.Ltd(000591) components will promote the company to form an upstream and downstream production supporting pattern of “annual output of 5GW Battery + 10GW components”, which will help the company integrate upstream and downstream resources, develop the “integration” strategy, and further consolidate and improve the industry position.
3. Improve the level of automatic production and improve product quality and core competitiveness
With the rapid development of photovoltaic equipment and component manufacturing industry, the market competition is bound to become increasingly fierce. In order to cope with the market competition and the stringent product performance requirements of downstream customers, the company urgently needs to build an automatic production workshop in order to improve production efficiency, reduce cost and improve product quality. The project plans to build a 5GW component workshop, which can greatly improve the automation level of production equipment. For example, it is equipped with complete inspection line, offline framing and El / IV equipment, and has strong emergency coordination ability; The laminated double glass feeding frame improves the automation ability; The functions of automatic dicing and series welding machine (AGV), automatic glass feeding (AGV) and automatic packaging line in packaging area are realized; The four point test function of withstand voltage and grounding test unit is added; IV automatic four wire system test scheme is configured; The intelligent three-dimensional constant temperature material storage (adhesive film, back film, silica gel, etc.) is realized. In conclusion, after the completion of the project, the single line capacity is expected to increase by 20%, the single line staffing is expected to decrease by 15%, and the unit energy consumption is expected to decrease by 5%, which will help to improve the company’s automatic production level, product quality and core competitiveness.
(II) feasibility analysis on the use of raised funds
1. The project construction is consistent with the national industrial support policy
As a global sunrise industry, photovoltaic industry is of great significance to the optimization and adjustment of China’s energy structure and the sustainable development of national economy. In recent years, national ministries, commissions and industry associations have successively issued a series of policies to guide the healthy development of photovoltaic enterprises and promote the overall technological progress and industrial upgrading of the industry, such as meeting the requirements of encouraging “advanced various Cecep Solar Energy Co.Ltd(000591) photovoltaic cells and high-purity crystalline silicon materials” in the Guiding Catalogue for industrial structure adjustment (2019 Edition), Comply with the requirements of the notice on actively promoting the work of new energy power generation projects to be able to combine and develop at full capacity; In line with the requirements of opinions on completely, accurately and comprehensively implementing the new development concept and doing a good job in carbon peak and carbon neutralization, the proportion of non fossil energy consumption will reach more than 80% by 2060; Meet the requirements of promoting the diversified layout of photovoltaic power generation in the action plan for carbon peak before 2030; It meets the requirements of guiding the high-quality development of intelligent photovoltaic industry in the guiding opinions on strengthening industrial integration to promote industrial green development. In conclusion, the good policy environment encourages the development of photovoltaic module industry and provides policy guarantee for the construction of the project.
2. Rich technical accumulation provides an executable basis for project construction
Focusing on the improvement of scientific and technological innovation ability, the company has independently developed and mass produced the high-efficiency “affordable pioneer” component series products, which integrate the industry-leading technologies such as gallium doping, multi main grid, perc double-sided, half wafer, large-size silicon wafer, 1500V system and double glass components, realizing the “integration of seven technologies”, and the maximum front power of components is 540W + (182 size battery), At the same time, it has lower annual attenuation rate and higher double-sided power generation gain rate. In addition, the company has established Jiangsu Key Laboratory – Jiangsu Yijing photovoltaic engineering research institute, and has scientific research and development platforms such as “international scientific and technological cooperation base”, postdoctoral scientific research workstation, provincial enterprise technology center, Jiangsu Cecep Solar Energy Co.Ltd(000591) material engineering technology research center, etc, The module Laboratory of the company is now recognized by China National Accreditation Service for conformity assessment (CNAs), and it is also the Tdap Laboratory of International Photovoltaic certification agency VDE. The company has transformed many technologies into patents.
