With decades of experience Taiwan's PV industry is firmly established at every level from upstream ingots and wafers, midstream cells and modules, and downstream systems. All the breakthroughs, especially in Taiwan’s semiconductor and flat panel displays come together at PV TAIWAN 2010 which is proudly organized by TAITRA and SEMI. This trade venue shed the most light ever on Asia’s hottest industry.

TAITRA & SEMI build upon its dazzling PV Taiwan 2009 success!
It hosts more than 236 companies who are using 500 booths from every solar endeavor. Many of the 10,000 visitors who attended the previous show touch base at the HCPV Pavilion, German Pavilion & Cross-Strait Exhibition.

A Powerful & High-Quality Market
PV Taiwan 2010 syncs perfectly with an industry taking off with environmental concerns, U.S. and EU incentives, economic recovery and module prices which are close to Grid Parity. In addition, Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of the global PV market from 2009 to 2013 is expected to top 45% ^[*1] while the growth of the Global PV cell market is projected to reach 40GW by 2012 ^[*2]. Meanwhile Taiwan firms are going all out to make it happen with its 2009 solar cell production expected to compose 13% of global total capacity ^[*3]
