BP Solar Announces a Mega Cell Plant in Madrid - 0 views

  •  
    Madrid, 22nd March 2007: BP Solar today announced that it has begun constructing a mega cell plant at its European headquarters in Tres Cantos, Madrid. For phase 1 of the Madrid expansion, BP Solar is aiming to expand its annual cell capacity from 55 MW to around 300 MW. This follows the announcement on 21st March of the construction of a similar facility in Bangalore, India. The new cell lines use state-of-the-art screen printing technology, much of it proprietary to BP Solar. By fully automating wafer handling, the lines will be able to handle the very thinnest of wafers available and ensuring the highest possible quality. Construction of the new Madrid manufacturing facility is already underway, with the first line expected to be fully operational before the summer. Construction has also begun on lines two and three. In addition to the new manufacturing lines, the Tres Cantos site will be remodelled to include a new photovoltaic (PV) systems prototype area, a visitor training centre and product testing and development facilities. "The announcement of the two mega cell plants cements BP Solar's commitment to maintain a market leadership position in PV" said Lee Edwards, BP Solar's CEO. "The new cell technologies we are using, our intellectual property in casting with Mono2 and the contracts we have signed to secure preferential access to metallurgical grade silicon are all important steps towards our goal of offering customers PV-generated electricity on a par with the cost of conventional grid-supplied electricity." The Madrid mega cell plant will be one of the largest such facilities in Europe. Since the site was acquired by BP Solar in 2002, a tri-generation power plant has been built providing heat and power to the site. The facility is ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 certified. BP Solar chose its Tres Cantos facility for one of its mega cell plants due to confidence in the growth projections of the European market. "We already have an established ma

    BP Selected For Exclusive Negotiations To Finalise Participation In China's First LNG Import Scheme http://www.bp.com/genericarticle.do?categoryId=2012968&contentId=2001374 BP announced today that it has been selected to enter exclusive negotiations to secure the position as the foreign partner in the JV tasked to develop China's first liquefied natural gas (LNG) import terminal and associated pipeline. The Chinese sponsors and BP will jointly conduct a Feasibility Study which, once approved by Chinese authorities, will lead to the formation of a JV company responsible for the construction and initial operating phase of the new plant. The Guangdong project in southern China will consist of an LNG re-gassification terminal near the city of Shenzhen, with a capacity of three million tonnes a year, together with 300 km of associated pipeline linking the terminal to the region in its first phase. It is due on stream in 2006. A successful finalisation of the negotiations will lead to BP taking a 30% equity stake in the project, partnering with a coalition led by the China National Offshore Oil Corporation (CNOOC) (33%), local Guangdong companies (31%) and two Hong Kong energy companies (6%). "This is a significant new step in expanding our China operations, and an excellent strategic fit with our Asia-Pacific gas reserves," BP chief executive Sir John Browne said. "The Guangdong project will cement our position as a leading global partner for China's rapidly growing gas markets and provides a platform for further growth for the BP Group in the province of Guangdong. China is the world's largest energy market outside the U.S. with a market expanding with continued economic deregulation. As China moves to cleaner fuels, gas demand will increase more rapidly still, and we now have the strongest possible access to the markets being created by that growth." BP's Phase one investment is estimated at some $180 million. An anticipated Phase two expansion

Sustainability Investors Reconsider BP Holdings in Wake of Gulf Disaster - 0 views

  •  
    "With BP's reputation as a leading sustainable company destroyed, investors weigh alternatives of divestment or increased engagement. SocialFunds.com -- The implications of the disastrous oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico are many. As the stock price of BP, the oil and gas company responsible for the disaster, plummets-as of this writing, it has lost more than a third of its value since the explosion that killed 11 workers- and its very survival as a company seems threatened, one such implication is the materiality of environmental, social, and corporate governance (ESG) issues. On Wednesday, FairPensions, the UK-based organization whose mission is to promote sustainability investment in the pensions and investment industry, issued a press release which stated, "The need for responsible ownership has been underlined by the financial crisis and by the latest in a list of avoidable BP crises." However, FairPensions continued, "recognition of the financial risks of 'extra-financial issues' is usually not matched by practice on the part of pension funds and their fund managers." Safety violations by BP have become almost a commonplace in recent years, even before the Gulf disaster. In 2005, an explosion at the company's Texas City Refinery in Texas killed 15 workers and injured more than 170. In 2009, the US Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) imposed a fine of $87.4 million, the largest ever by the agency, on the company for failing to correct safety hazards in Texas City. In 2006, 200,000 gallons of oil spilled at Prudhoe Bay on the North Slope in Alaska, leading to payment by the company of $20 million in fines and restitution. Yet somehow, despite its record of safety violations, BP was considered a leading sustainable company, at least until the Gulf oil spill. In 2008, Fortu ne magazine ranked BP among the top ten most accountable big companies, citing the company's investments in renewable energy and its creation,
