Obama's Climate Change Policy and the Global Race for Renewable Energy-What does it Mean for Solar Stocks? (XSNX), (SCTY)

Obama's Climate Change Policy and the Global Race for Renewable Energy-What does it Mean for Solar Stocks? (XSNX), (SCTY)


New York, NY, Point Roberts, WA - June 27, 2013 (Investorideas.com renewable energy newswire) Investorideas.com, an investor research portal specializing in investing ideas in leading sectors including renewable energy stocks, reports on the recent Climate Change Plan released early this week and the impact it may have on the solar sector.


Solar stocks, including SolarCity Corporation ( NasdaqGM: SCTY) , had an initial bounce following the Presidential speech, but investors need to look globally to get the real picture for the opportunity for solar and other renewables.

While the US announces its ambitions , other countries are upping the game , with countries like Costa Rica currently at 90% renewable and the Philippines announcing a goal of 100 % renewable energy usage within a decade.



During the President's first term, the US more than doubled generation of electricity from wind, solar, and geothermal sources. President Obama has now set a goal to double renewable electricity generation once again by 2020. Initiatives include a goal of 20 percent of federal power from renewable sources by 2020 and installing 100 megawatts of renewable energy on federally subsidized homes.



In his speech Obama stated, 'The U.S. will work with trading partners to launch negotiations at the World Trade Organization towards global free trade in environmental goods, including clean energy technologies such as solar.'

Tom M. Djokovich, CEO of XsunX, Inc. ( OTCQB: XSNX) , a company working to commercialize a new manufacturing process to produce low cost, high efficiency thin-film Copper Indium Gallium (di) Selenide (CIGS) thin film solar cells said , " The Federal governments continued support for the reduction of greenhouse gases is good news at many levels of the energy industry. The driving force behind the American economy has been innovation and whether you are on the carbon or renewable side of the energy industry these types of mandates drive the entire energy industry to innovate. This is especially true for the renewable solar energy industry which is a hot bed of innovation with numerous small companies such as ours, XsunX Inc., working to deliver innovative new products and technologies. We view the governments mandating industry to adopt and invest in more efficient and cleaner ways to produce and deliver energy as investments in long term energy security and the stability of our energy dependent economy.

At XsunX we are seeing the blossoming of these types of mandates in other regions too. The Middle East, Africa, and Latin America are adopting diversified energy production mandates that are predicted to dive immense growth in the renewables sector over the next decade. We are excited to be part of this emerging next wave in global PV development and adoption.



On the global front, aggressive goals were released from the Philippines. The Worldwatch Institute's Climate and Energy Director, Alexander Ochs, met with the Climate Change Commission (CCC) and high-level representatives of the federal and provincial governments of the Philippines yesterday to lay groundwork for a Sustainable Energy Roadmap for the archipelago nation, which aims to shift its current electricity system to 100 percent renewable energy within a decade.

"This country has an enormous opportunity to demonstrate how smart and integrated energy planning can be done in the 21st century," said Ochs. "Any country in the world has great potential for at least one renewable resource, such as biomass, geothermal, hydro, ocean, solar or wind. The Philippines has them all, as well as the human resources, technological know-how, and political leadership necessary to make a low-emissions transition a reality within less than a generation."



Costa Rica 's government, currently at 90% renewable is committed to becoming carbon neutral by 2021.

As the race for renewables picks up speed, the global solar market is shifting dramatically. According to a report in May from IHS Inc, Japan's solar installations surged by a stunning 270 percent (in gigawatts (GW)) in the first quarter of 2013, positioning the country to surpass Germany to become the world's largest photovoltaics (PV) market in terms of revenue this year.

For investors following solar stocks the take -away is that the market is global and changing and not to react to just one piece of news, look at the bigger picture .

Solar Stock Alert: XsunX (OTCQB: XSNX) Reports CIGSolar® Producing Near Identical CIGS Films to 16.4% NREL Samples

June 24, 2013 (Investorideas.com renewable energy newswire) XsunX, Inc. (OTCQB: XSNX) issues the following update from Tom Djokovich, CEO: Lately our updates have centered on our developing business opportunities, key markets, and the stabilizing solar market. In the background, we have been working full time with the CIGSolar® evaporator and we are excited to let you know that we are seeing some outstanding results.

Since the completion of the CIGSolar® evaporator assembly, we have carried out literally hundreds of incremental steps aimed toward establishing benchmarks, calibrating performance, and identifying or implementing potential improvements across our entire suite of system capabilities from material transport to CIGS deposition.
Our objective was to get the tool assembled, working, and producing results on par with the results we achieved during the initial technology development phase. The good news is that the tedious process of what seemed like endless incremental and iterative steps is now producing those types of results. Our internal testing of films is showing near identical film composition results to those recorded in a sample we provided to the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) during our development phase, which averaged 16.4% efficiency.
Not surprisingly, and we have mentioned this before a few times, our proprietary thermal co-evaporation heating, insulation, and nozzle technology have performed remarkably well and we are excited about our thin film processing results and commercial prospects of our multi-source design.
This progress also shows that we are on the right track and helps to strengthen our marketing capabilities as well as emphasizes our commitment to continued process and system improvements for the benefit our customers.
As always, we are working hard to capitalize the full potential of CIGSolar® for our shareholders and look forward to sharing more progress and news with you in the near future.

Surging Demand for CIGS Solar in Japan: Global Trend to Follow?

Point Roberts, WA - June 10, 2013 (Investorideas.com newswire) Investorideas.com, an investor research portal specializing in investing ideas in leading sectors including renewable energy stocks, reports on recent news and developments in the CIGS solar sector and related solar stocks XsunX (OTCQB: XSNX), Ascent Solar (NASDAQ:ASTI) and Solar Frontier subsidiary of Showa Shell Sekiyu K.K. (TYO: 5002).

According to recent data from the Japanese Photovoltaic Energy Association (JPEA), published in an article in Solarserver.com, "Japanese PV shipments increase 62% year-over-year as imports boom". The article went on to note, "Thin film shipments are also increasing rapidly over the year, jumping from 106 MW in the first quarter to 299 MW in the fourth quarter, which ended on March 31st.
JPEA does not disaggregate thin film imports versus domestic production; however copper indium gallium diselenide (CIGS) thin-film maker Solar Frontier KK (Tokyo, Japan) has reported strong quarterly results and in March 2013 re-started its Miyazaki number 2 plant to increase capacity.” Solar Frontier is a 100% subsidiary of Showa Shell Sekiyu K.K. (TYO: 5002).
Rechargenews.com, in an article on Solar Frontier said, "The domestic demand for its thin-film modules is now so high that it is struggling to meet orders -- despite running its two-year-old 900MW factory at full throttle and even restarting production at an ageing, shuttered 60MW plant nearby, an almost unprecedented move in the PV industry.
And this huge demand comes despite the fact that its copper-indium-gallium-selenide (CIGS) thin-film modules, on paper at least, remain uncompetitive with crystalline-silicon (c-Si) technology.”
XsunX, Inc. (OTCQB: XSNX) is working to commercialize a new manufacturing process to produce low cost, high efficiency thin-film Copper Indium Gallium (di) Selenide (CIGS) thin film solar cells. The company recently announced that solar expert, Dr. John R. Tuttle had joined the Company's Advisory Board to help advance its CIGS technology.
"Our current requirement was to find someone with world-class CIGS experience and someone who could also 'think outside of the box' -- or in the CIGS business -- outside of the vacuum chamber to commercialize technology. Dr. Tuttle's years of noteworthy experience at NREL elevating the science and capabilities of CIGS, and his experience transitioning innovation into operational results provides XsunX with the hands-on capabilities that we were looking for," concluded Mr. Djokovich.
Ascent Solar Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:ASTI), a manufacturer of consumer and off-grid products integrated with flexible thin-film photovoltaic modules (CIGS), recently announced the official entry of the EnerPlexTM brand into the Chinese consumer market through Ascent's strategic partner, Shenzhen Radiant Enterprise Co., Ltd (www.sradiant.com), which has signed a distribution agreement with D.Phone, one of China's largest retailers of mobile phones and accessories.
According to Globalsources.com, "solar cell companies in China are shifting their attention to thin-film kinds, which are not covered by the US, the EU and India anti-dumping duties. They are counting on the type's improving share, which is currently a minority to the 85 percent stake of crystalline silicon counterparts. The projected rise for the former is 30 percent by 2015, according to the Information Network.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, suppliers such as Hanergy Holding Group Ltd, Baoding Tianwei Baobian and ENN are investing in production capacity expansion.
ENN is allocating $2.2 billion for a future venture that will boost its turnout to 500MW. Its current maximum level is 70MW.
A local breakthrough in thin-film solar cells based on CIGS is expected to help accelerate the line's development. It was achieved by joint efforts of the PV research center of the Shenzhen Institute of Advanced Technology, the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Chinese University of Hong Kong. The product has 18.7 percent efficiency, which can be stretched to 19.08 percent. The latter rating is only slightly lower than the 20.3 percent world record made by Germany's ZSW Center for Solar and Hydrogen Energy Research.”
According to XsunX, Inc. (OTCQB: XSNX) CEO Tom Djokovich, this trend comes as no surprise; it's what his company has been betting on. He went on to say, "The competiveness of today's silicon industry is the product of about 40 years of iterative improvements to the manufacturing technology. CIGS is late to the game compared to silicon but is now benefiting from years of similar iterative improvements and with CIGS you have the potential to match or exceed the conversion efficiencies of silicon - at lower cost points, concluded Mr. Djokovich.

Houston Based Oilfield Services/ Frac Water Stock HII Technologies (OTCQB: HIIT) Beats Odds against Industry Leaders

Point Roberts, WA - June 7, 2013 (Investorideas.com Newswire) Investorideas.com staff: Investorideas.com, an investor research portal specializing in investing ideas in leading sectors reports on oilfield services /frac water treatment stocks and how a small Houston company, HII Technologies, (OTCQB: HIIT) is beating the odds competing against the big players dominating the sector.

According to a recent research report from Jeffries, 'Oil Services & Equipment-Over-Hauling Frac Water; U.S. Oilfield Water Recycling Review”, bigger companies in the space have the edge.
"We believe water recycling in the oil patch should grow significantly in the U.S. over the next few years, perhaps with some regulatory push. Recycling lowers well-cost vis-à-vis fresh water and enables activity in drought-prone regions. That is a boon to all of OFS except water haulers, but we think the complexity of fracking with recycled water gives the edge in pumping services to (NYSE:HAL), (NYSE:BHI) and (NYSE:SLB) over smaller peers. "
The Houston Business Journal reported on Jeffries findings on May 23 rd, in an article entitled, ' Recycled frac water: Big oilfield service companies have the edge', just days after the small Houston-based company reported its earnings.
Clearly the market is large and there is room in the frac water treatment sector for the smaller companies to thrive as companies like Schlumberger Limited (NYSE: SLB) can't or chose not to do it all.

Solar Stock Q&A with CEO of XsunX, Inc. (OTCQB: XSNX) Discussing Paradigm Shift in Solar Industry

Point Roberts, WA - May 22, 2013 (Investorideas.com newswire) Investorideas.com staff: Investorideas.com, an investor research portal specializing in investing ideas in leading sectors including renewable energy stocks, issues an exclusive Q&A interview with Mr. Tom Djokovich, CEO of the solar company, XsunX, Inc. (OTCQB: XSNX). Mr. Djokovich shares insight into the paradigm shift within the solar industry and how his company has adjusted accordingly.

Q: Investorideas.com
In a recent press release you discussed a paradigm shift within the solar industry. Investors have seen firsthand how stocks reflected massive changes in this sector. Can you expand on that thought and on how your company has adjusted to these changes?
A: XsunX CEO Tom Djokovich
The good news is that PV installations worldwide are on track to increase about 19% this year, and most analysts see near 17% CAGR through 2020. Almost every nation or region now has a long-term renewable energy plan that includes a significant portion to solar. This is fantastic for the industry and XsunX. However, these numbers come on the heels of several years of overcapacity during which we saw intense completion, significant plant closures, and prices declining to levels that are below the typical production costs of many PV manufacturers. This had created huge declines in investor confidence.
During this period of shakeout and market rationalization, we felt that attempting to compete without any real differentiation could lead to rapid failure. So, XsunX adapted by focusing on the development of our CIGSolar® technology as a next-generation replacement technology for the use of silicon. With silicon, the dominant technology in use today, having been squeezed to virtually a zero margin business, the assumptions we made at the initial launch of our technology development (that low cost CIGS solar cells could replace silicon and revive margins), are still true today.
Q: Investorideas.com
The company also reported that Dr. John R. Tuttle had joined the Company's Advisory Board. Can you give an overview of his background and what he brings to the table for XsunX?
A: XsunX CEO Tom Djokovich
In my opinion, Dr. Tuttle is an entrepreneur and cutting edge scientist wrapped into one and that's not easy to find in the PV sector. He has over 30 years' experience during which he was a Senior Scientist at NREL, where his research guided the fabrication of thin-film CIGS PV devices, elevating the science with multiple world-record efficiencies, and he has shown success as an entrepreneur building a PV tech business from the ground up.
There are a lot of talented engineers and scientists in the industry that will deliver exactly what you ask for without regard for practicality. If you want examples, just look at the Solyndra project - great engineering - impractical application of the technology. In today's market, we were looking for someone that could help identify opportunities and ways to adapt our technology into markets that some may be overlooking. John is that type of person.
Q: Investorideas.com
Can you give us a brief overview of CIGSolar® technology and how that plays into the changes in the solar industry as you foresee it?
A: XsunX CEO Tom Djokovich
The general science of CIGS ( Copper Indium Gallium (di) Selenide) thin film solar cells is well known. The issues have been in transitioning world-class laboratory results into world-class, large-scale manufacturing systems. Therefore, you might say it isn't as much of a science challenge as an engineering application challenge. In looking at the problem, we decided to take a page from the hard disc-drive industry (a thin film industry) and apply some of the lessons' they have learned.
There are several ways to make CIGS and we use co-evaporation - the method that has produced the best efficiency results. Scaling co-evaporation has presented challenges, so our idea was to scale the number of controlled points of evaporation and not the evaporation technology itself. This is in essence what the hard disc industry did when they replaced large area manufacturing techniques with mass small area manufacturing methods. The results were passed along to consumers in the form of higher memory capacity and lower pricing. That's the effect we believe our CIGSolar® technology can provide to the industry.
Q: Investorideas.com
Tom, what do you see as both the biggest obstacles and opportunities for your company and the sector in general?
A: XsunX CEO Tom Djokovich
First, let me say that I think that the stars are aligning again for the industry. Several years of over-capacity has in many ways produced positive effects such as the elimination of numerous inefficient manufacturers, cost reductions that continue to make solar more and more attractive as a viable alternative to coal and nuclear, and a hundred gigawatts of installed capacity with hundreds more planned has increased PV's relevance as a mainstream source of power production.
The challenge that we see is working through the residual effects of the billions of dollars that were lost by investors and manufacturers in investments made into other thin film technologies such as amorphous silicon. The rapid decline in silicon pricing cut any value proposition offered by amorphous or non-coevaporation CIGS off at the knees. It took the market by surprise and what we are working to accomplish is to rebuild the confidence of investors in next-generation thin film manufacturing techniques.
The good news is that silicon pricing has stabilized - that makes it easier to predict longer-term value propositions in new technologies such as our CIGSolar®. In addition, with long-term renewable energy plans being adopted in developing regions worldwide we see more opportunities for CIGSolar®. The cost differences between deploying silicon manufacturing and CIGSolar® infrastructure are significant. This is why we have been responding to firms in those regions interested in deploying CIGSolar® as their technology choice.
