盡管2008年11月,Tokuyama公司才開始入住馬來西亞Samalaju工業園區,但是現在已經通過了建設6,000MT多晶硅電站項目。據公司相關人說,電站將會在2011年開始建設,并且2013年春天開始運作。電站據說將會花費650億日元,公用開銷為150億日元。
多晶硅電站會為太陽能產業提供產能。之前Tokuyama公司計劃開始在2012年開始運作,并且提供太陽能和半導體工業3,000MT的產能。
Although site selection had been undertaken back in November, 2008, Tokuyama has now approved the construction of a 6,000MT polysilicon plant in the heavy industry based Samalaju Industrial Park in Malaysia. The plant will commence construction in early 2011 and start operations in the spring of 2013, according to the company. Plant costs were said to be 65 billion Yen and utility costs of 15 billion Yen.
The polysilicon plant will be dedicated to supply the solar industry. Previously, Tokuyama planned to start operations in 2012 and have a plant with 3,000MT capacity to supply both solar and semiconductor industries.
