Mr. Yu Mingqing, vice president of China National Materials Company Limited and president of Sinoma Advanced Materials Co.,Ltd, pointed out in his speech that under the situation of global warming, human environmental deterioration, the shortage of conventional energy resources and environmental pollution, solar photovoltaic power technology generally got the attention and support of governments. With the promotion of technological progress and animating of the gradually improving policies and regulations, photovoltaic industry has entered a rapid development period since the second half of the 1990s. The last five years, the world solar cell production average growth rate reached 49.5 percent and the global solar cell production reached 4000.05 MWp in 2007. Because of the strong stimulation of the world PV market, domestic solar cell industry has entered a rapid development stage and risen at extraordinary speed since 2002.2007 Domestic solar cell output reached 1088 MWp which has exceeded Japanese (920 MWp) and European (1062.8 MWp)and China has become the first largest producer of solar cells in the world. During the five-year period of 2002-2007, Chinese solar cells show a sustained and rapid growth momentum with the high-speed and healthy development of annual average growth rate of 191.3 percent. The photovoltaic industry-related materials and equipment are in strong demand and shortages. Sinoma Advanced Materials Co.,Ltd is the largest national high-tech enterprise and National Engineering and Research Center for Industrial Ceramics integrating R&D, production, technical service, plant design and engineering, etc., of advanced ceramics and synthetic crystals in China, leading national advanced ceramic technology and industrial development trend. Sinoma Advanced Materials Co.,Ltd has given the first priority to development of the key solar new materials industry and will fully support the development of Jiangxi Sinoma New Solar Materials Co.,Ltd and make Jiangxi Sinoma being one of the major suppliers of solar crucibles in the world. The production of Phase Ⅰand the contribution launching of Phase Ⅱof the project not only smashes up the imported products’ monopoly of domestic market, but also meets domestic and international market developing demand farthest which is of great significance to further reduce the production costs of solar polysilicon and greatly promote the rapid development of solar photovoltaic industry that makes materials technology and equipment industry for the Chinese PV industry ranks among the world most advanced line.

       In his speech, Mr. Tan Zhongming, general manager of Sinoma Group Corporation and chairman of China National Materials Company Limited，he firstly expressed his heartfelt congratulations for the production of Phase Ⅰand the contribution launching of Phase Ⅱof the project. The solar crucible project of Jiangxi Sinoma is a high technology projects with complete solar crucible independent intellectual property rights and the product is a key materials for domestic photovoltaic industry development. The Phase Ⅰproject of Jiangxi Sinoma completed and put into operation smoothly under the concern and support of Xinyu municipal government, the Management committee of Xinyu Economic Development Zone and Jiangxi LDK Solar Co.,Ltd and also under the efforts of the staffs of Jiangxi Sinoma. They indicate the development of photovoltaic key materials technology and equipment of Sinoma Group and of milestone significance for it sprints into the world advanced industry, while giving more confidence to Sinoma Group for developing the new materials industry in Xinyu City. we believe that Phase Ⅱ will achieve more technical innovation and even greater success on the basis of Phase Ⅰ. Mr. Tan Zhongming said that in the course of the construction and future operations of the company, we should closely cooperate with the local government to accelerate technological innovation, realize the production localization of China solar key materials, promote technological progress of the industry and make due contributions for local development, prosperity and stability. We will certainly be able to fulfill our advantages which are from the technology, management, personnel, capital that we own, in order to focus on promoting technological innovation, and implementing brand strategy, aiming at goals of fostering large enterprise which has the international competitiveness. And we will make even greater and newer contributions to the national economy development, the promotion of the solar energy effective use and the high-tech materials industry and building materials industry!

       In his speech, Mr. Li Anze, deputy secretary of the municipal committee and mayor of Xinyu City, Jiangxi Province warmly congratulated to Jangxi Sinoma for the production of Phase Ⅰand the contribution launching of Phase Ⅱof the silica crucible project which will produce the total annual output of 200,000 on behalf of Xinyu municipal Committee and People's Government firstly. He pointed out that this year, the PV industry of Xinyu City has been developing rapidly due to the promotion of the provincial government "make the whole province efforts to support the development of photovoltaic industry in Xinyu” strategy. The project which starts today is another achievement from the good cooperation between Xinyu government and Sinoma Group. He hopes that all the municipal government departments should strive for providing a good policy environment, construction, environment and service environment to enterprise development and project construction, especially the economic development zone should set up a service group for the project construction, strengthen project management, speed up project construction, accelerate enterprise development and propel Jiangxi Sinoma and Sinoma Group to get the best returns and greater development in Xinyu.
