Global and China Automotive Lighting Industry Report, 2010-2011
Although the gloomy economy in 2011 makes people doubt about global economic recovery, the automotive market, especially the limousine market, presents buoyant development. In Jan.-Aug., 2011, the sales volume of Benz totaled 867,400 units worldwide, and the figures in Germany, America and China registered 165,500, 148,400 and 120,200, up 2.3%, 6.1% and 35.8%, respectively; and the global sales volume of BMW increased by 16.8% YoY to 1.0734 million units, and the figures in Germany, America and China reached 196,300, 155,900 and 158,900, rising 13.3%, 12% and 49.3% YoY, respectively.
The biggest change in automotive lighting industry is that LED boosts to penetrate the market. In 2010, LED suffered price slump in the wake of large capacity expansion. In brake-lamp and tail-lamp sectors, LED gets rapidly popular, with the targeted prevalence of 70% in 2015. Another change is that LED head-lamps are massively applied in HEV or EV, rather than limiting to flagship models.
Before 2010, auto models that employed LED head-lamp only contained Lexus LS600H, Audi A8/R8 and Cadilliac Escalade Platinum. Since 2010, LED head-lamp has embraced its blossom. For example, Nissan LEAF, developed by ICHIKOH, cuts its LED number to 2 ones, reducing half of power consumption and prolonging two-fold of service life while lowering the cost. Another case in point is Mitsubishi i-Miev, a type of EV similar to LEAF. Moreover, the latest LEXUS LS450H draws lesson from LS600H which fully employs LED.
In early 2011, BMW announced to equip LED headlights to its full range of new series 6 models. Audi followed suit, fully employing LED lights on EV A2 concept car as well as A3 e-tron concept PHEV. Additionally, Taiwan-based Yulon Motor’s neora, Benz’s level-A concept car scheduled to go public in 2012 plus CITEON’s HEV DS5 have joined and will join the league.
According to the EU rule, all newly produced cars are required to add DRL (day-time running light) from 2011. Presently, 5-10% automobiles with DRL are provided with LED, and the figure is expected to rise to 25%-35% or more in the upcoming five years.
However, only a few manufactures can provide HB LED, including Lunileds, OSRAM and Nichia. For most LED manufacturers, automotive market makes limited contribution to their performance, even for Lumileds, OSRAM and Nichia. After all, the LED consumption in automotive sector is far less than that in consumer electronics.
The sales volume of cars equipped with LED head-lamps is estimated to hit roughly 8% by 2015. The mainstream head-lamp is still halogen, while for executive cars, Xeon tritium lights have become mainstream, with the popularity rate exceeding 80%.
Japanese automotive lighting manufacturers occupy supremacy, but weak in growth. For instance, Stanley, which focuses on Japanese market, has seen decline; Koito is expected to see moderate growth given its rooting in Mainland China. In contrast, driven by vigorous limousine market, German automotive lighting businesses present aggressive development. In particular, Hella, AL (Automotive Lighting), ZKW are all suppliers of Audi, BMW and Benz, with AL taking up the highest proportion. As for Taiwan-based TYC and DEPO, they focus on the after-sale market of Europe and America, and show slowdown in growth.

China Mobile Communication Antenna Industry Report 2011
At the end of 2010, mobile phone users amounted to 859 million and 3G subscribers totaled 47.1 million in China. In July 2011, mobile phone users jumped to 930 million, including 87.2 million 3G subscribers.
The booming of mobile subscribers and communication data traffic promote telecom operators to continually optimize and expand their networks.
In 2011, China’s market capacity of outdoor base station antenna grew 26% YoY to approximately 1.78 million units; and that of indoor base station antenna approximated 16.2 million units, up 35% YoY. China outdoor base station antenna market witnesses cutting-throat competition and the product price slipped sharply as well. Domestic base station antenna manufacturers account for more than 85% of the market share in China.
In 2008, microwave communication system (MCS) was adopted in China’s communication transmission. In 3G network construction, Chinese telecom operators increased the procurement of MCS. In 2010, the market capacity of microwave antenna in China hit 190,000 units and rose to over 340,000 units in 2011. Four domestic manufacturers capable of producing high-performance microwave antenna are Xi’an Putian, Shenglu Telecommunication, Mobi Development and Guangdong Tongyu.
Benefiting from the development of such mobile terminals as smart phones, tablet PCs and laptops, the market capacity of mobile communication terminal antenna reached 1.08 billion in China in 2010. In the next three years, the average growth rate of the market capacity will be likely to maintain above 15%. Major local mobile terminal antenna providers include Shenzhen Sunway Communication, Shenzhen Speed, Shanghai Jesoncom and Kunshan Auden.
Shenglu Telecommunication (002446.SZ) is committed to producing all types of antenna products for base stations and terminals, as well as microwave antenna products with frequency range from 6GHz to 40GHz, and ranks as the most competitive manufacturer of mobile communication antenna of China. In H1 2011, affected by the factors like the slow investment progress of Chinese operators, the sales growth of Shenglu Telecommunication’s products slowed down. The revenue of base station antenna fell 4.4%, and that of Yagi Antenna dropped 17.4%, while the growth rate of the promising microwave antenna and indoor terminal antenna only touched 5.2% and 6.8% respectively.
More than 30% of revenue of Mobi Development (0947.HK) comes from ZTE. In H1 2011, Mobi Development achieved sales of RMB 124.5 million from antenna business, down 5.9%, of which the sales of multi-frequency/multi-system antenna business reached RMB 29.36 million, up 192.3% over the same period in 2010 which was mainly fueled by the substantial growth of overseas demand.
Xi'an Haitian Antenna (08227.HK) and Sunnada jointly established a new company in Aug. 2011 which engages in the R&D, manufacturing and sales of mobile communication antenna. In H1 2011, Haitian Antenna realized revenue of RMB 27.24 million, up 39% YoY and with loss decreasing to RMB 14.215 million.
Sunway Communication is the sole listed Chinese enterprise specializing in producing mobile terminal antenna. The company occupies about 1.3% of the global mobile terminal antenna market and around 20% of the domestic market. In H1 2011, the company’s revenue grew only 10.5% to RMB 72.52 million, while its consolidated gross margin rose to 59%, which could be attributed to the spin-off of its low-gross-margin products and customers.

Reportstack Report: Global and China Titanium Industry Report 2010-2011
As the largest producing country of titanium product worldwide, China’s output of titanium sponge reached 57,770 tons in 2010, accounting for 37.4% of the global total. Meanwhile, the output of titanium mill products achieved 38,323 tons in China, covering 34.3% of the world’s total. However, titanium product structure presents unbalance in China, with relatively low capacity proportion of aerospace titanium sponge. Furthermore, competitiveness of high-end titanium mill products such as aerospace titanium products still desires to be improved.
In terms of titanium sponge market, the United States, Europe and South Korea are the main export destinations of China-made titanium sponge. In recent years, titanium sponge output gradually declines in the United States, where titanium product manufacturers including TIMET are experiencing short supply of titanium sponge. As for the European market, titanium sponge entirely relies on import. Currently, VSMPO-AVISMA and ATI are the main producers of aerospace titanium sponge in the European and American markets. Chinese titanium sponge enterprises mainly focus on the production of industrial titanium sponge.
Zunyi Titanium Co., Ltd., the leading one among titanium sponge manufacturers, is still in its production recovery stage, after suffering drastic fall in 2009 and IPO failure. Its production, sales and price of titanium sponge improved markedly in H1 2011. Huashen Titanium realized titanium sponge capacity of 10,000 tons/year, after being invested by Baoji Titanium in 2010. Meanwhile, its product titanium sponge for aerospace and military use saw a rise in proportion, and it further enhanced its connection with titanium mill products production lines of Baoji Titanium.
Titanium mill products boast large capacities in China at present, whereas the production capacities of titanium thin-plate and titanium welded pipe are still far from sufficiency. As for production of high-end aerospace titanium products, Baoji Titanium is still the sole player in Chinese market.
Currently, Baoji Titanium enjoys around 40% market shares of titanium mill products in China, while it provides over 95% of the total military titanium demand in domestic China. In addition, Baoji Titanium is the only exporter of aerospace titanium products at home. Being restricted by limited capacity and weak technical R&D strength, other peers are less competitive in the market, such as Western Metal Materials, Western Superconducting Technologies, Beijing Zhongbei Titanium and Baosteel Special Steel, etc.

With China’s accelerating construction of power grid in recent years, the china high voltage switch industry has realized buoyant development, especially in the field of 126KV-above high-voltage switch apparatuses, where the number of manufacturers has swelled from 5 to more than 40.
Among 126KV-above high-voltage switch apparatuses, 500KV, 750KV and 1,000KV have been the highlights in recent years. As of H1 2011, China had made breakthrough in key technologies such as 500KV single-break SF6 breaker equipment, super-power operation mechanism and 1,000KV disconnecting switch based on the technologies of 500KV and 750KV. Meanwhile, the switchgear equipment for three transformer substations of China’s first AC 1,000KV test demonstration project (Southeast Shanxi-Nanyang-Jingmen UHV line) developed by three switch heavyweights (China XD, New Northeast Electric (Shenyang) High Voltage Switchgear Co., Ltd., and Henan Pinggao Electric Co., Ltd.) have run smoothly for two years.
The report analyzes the development, demand & supply, technology of the high-voltage switch industry in China in recent years, and focuses on the following three market segments: circuit breaker (CB), gas insulated switchgear (GIS), disconnecting switch & earthing switch (DS&ES)
1. CB
With the popularity of oil-free switchgears in recent years, high-voltage CB products such as SF6 CB and vacuum circuit breaker (VCB) have won acclaims in the market. In particular, SF6 CB equipment is classified as the leading high-voltage and EHV and UHV product system in China, while VCB concentrates on the voltage of 40.5KV or below.
2.GIS
Alongside with increasingly mature GIS technology in China in the past decade, several GIS production bases have emerged in Xi’an, Shenyang and Pingdingshan, with representative enterprises including China XD, Henan Pinggao Electric Co., Ltd., and New Northeast Electric (Shenyang) High Voltage Switchgear Co., Ltd. In addition, international businesses like ABB, Siemens and Areva have thrust into the Chinese GIS market by merit of advanced technologies.
3. DS&ES
DS&ES is a kind of power transmission and transformation equipment that used more common, generally 2-3 times of high-voltage CB, in power supply system. Driven by the construction of UHV AC/DC power grid in recent years, DS&ES have been leapfrogging towards high voltage, EHV and even UHV, with representative enterprises including Hunan Changgao High Voltage Switchgear Group Co., Ltd., China XD, Henan Pinggao Electric Co., Ltd., and New Northeast Electric (Shenyang) High Voltage Switchgear Co., Ltd.
Additionally, the report also highlights 15 key enterprises including three foreign-owned ones such as ABB, Siemens and Areva as well as 12 domestic businesses like China XD, Henan Pinggao Electric Co., Ltd., and Hunan Changgao High Voltage Switchgear Group Co., Ltd.
China XD is a power transmission and transformation equipment flagship with the most powerful system integration strength in China, mainly engaged in the production of high-voltage switch, transformer, lightning rod, insulator, etc. It provided 1,000KVH-GIS, reactor, capacitive voltage transformer (CVT), lightning rod, ES and insulator for China’s megavolt-level demonstration project (Southeast Shanxi-Nanyang-Jingmen UHV line) and realized smooth on-grid operation. Moreover, it offered transformer, converter valve, capacitor and arrester for Yunnan-Guangzhou ±800KV UHV DC power transmission project.
Henan Pinggao Electric Co., Ltd. is the flagship enterprise in China’s UHV switch industry with solid R&D capabilities. In March 2011, it independently developed the world’s first 800KV intelligent CB and successfully put it into operation; in August 2011, its EHV and UHV DC DS technical project was tested to be qualified.
Hunan Changgao High Voltage Switchgear Group Co., Ltd. is a leading business in high-voltage DS industry of China, with the major products including 126-1100kV outdoor high-voltage DS and ES. Since 2010, its revenue from 550KV or above, 363KV, 252KV DS, especially 550KV or above DS, has been declining, mainly due to two reasons: first, the investment demand has shrunk in the wake of the huge investment in 550KV-750KV backbone network in 2008-2009; second, the examination & approval and construction of 1,000KV or above UHV projects have slowed down since 2011.

Reportstack Report: Thin Film Battery Markets Reach $3.6 Billion By 2017
Reportstack announces that it has a new study on Thin Film and Printed Battery Market Shares and Forecasts, Worldwide, Nanotechnology 2011-2017. These products power sensors that are the base for smarter computing. The 2011 study has 505 pages, 164 tables and figures. Thin film batteries are evolving solid state technology that provides vast improvements in energy density and creates units that can be recharged 40,000 times, up from 200 times for traditional batteries.
Thin film battery market driving forces include business inflection that is achieved by delivering smart computing technology that supports entirely new capabilities. Sensor networks are creating demand for thin film solid state devices. Vendors doubled revenue and almost tripled production volume from first quarter. Multiple customers are moving into production with innovative products after successful trials.
A strong business pipeline has emerged with customer activity in all target markets. Vendors expect full-year revenue to more than double in 2011. The market focus is shifting from ramping capacity to driving manufacturing efficiencies and achieving margin improvement, indicating increasing market maturity.
Smarter computing depends on instrumented devices. Key factors that increase the demand for these thin film batteries is the flexibility these batteries offer in terms of size and shape. Roll-to-roll production technology, a process of manufacturing battery cell on a roll of flexible plastic material or a metal foil, enables low cost and high volume manufacturing.
Megatrends include consumer demand for increased portability, smart cities that demand connectivity and, tracking all through the city, and human demand for environmentally friendly products. These megatrends are driving the demand for these batteries. Widespread usage of smart cards in diverse applications is another factor creating demand for these batteries. Smartcards powered through thin film batteries enable better contact from a smart card to the common database, retaining the dimensions of the card.
Software is needed to create systems that manage smarter computing and instrumented systems. SOA provides the base for cloud computing and for smarter computing. IBM is the market leader in SOA.
IBM is the leader in SOA markets with 78% share in 2010. No other vendor has above 4% market share and software vendors are merging and making acquisitions at a rapid pace seeking to achieve credible SOA product sets. IBM software is the defacto standard in this industry. The market is evolving rapidly.
One of the remarkable aspects of the IBM SOA solution is that it permits users to work across software segments to achieve significant insight into their IT automated process. Thus, while most software fits into a neat category of software, business process management (BPM), information management, data base, applications, application server, system management, SOA embraces a large number of categories to provide a solution. The IBM SOA solution is robust because it supports so many different aspects of integration across platforms.
With WebSphere MQ as a base, the IBM SOA solution is able to transport messages once and only once, in a mission critical manner, across disparate platforms and across multiple layers of application, creating an integration stack that is unique.
Cloud and virtualization from IBM leverage the smarter computing using the WebSphere product set that leverage sensors used to implement smarter computing. These sensors need thin film batteries to function remotely. In a smarter computing dynamic business climate, organizations are challenged with managing an ever-growing amount of business applications, often requiring extremely sophisticated processing capabilities. The thin film batteries are used to support gathering information from instrumented sensors in large networks.
Every big automaker, battery maker, national lab and university materials-science department in the world has a team of PhDs whose lives consist of testing countless combinations of elements in an effort to build a better battery. There is a fundamental challenge to evolve solid state batteries.
Solid state batteries need more work to become a large market. Fabrication methods do not yet scale to large format batteries. This is because the cost of vacuum deposition has been prohibitive. Researchers are working to develop an alternative deposition process. It has the ability to make nanostructured electrolyte and electrode materials with chemistries.
A low temperature deposition process for thin film batteries enables use of flexible, polymer foil as the substrate. This technology largely reduces the production cost of the thin film batteries. Successful development of a low temperature manufacturing process opens up the possibility of using a polymer substrate such as Kapton, thereby significantly reducing manufacturing cost, while gaining flexibility and significantly reducing the overall thickness of the cells.
Thin film battery high power & energy density, specific power & energy are issues. A comparison of battery performance for various rechargeable batteries is a compelling illustration of the value of thin film batteries. Data for thin film batteries using very thin substrates illustrate the longer cycle life that can be achieved.
Improved energy density is a significant factor to be considered in development of thin film battery materials. Thin film lithium batteries have the potential to reach an energy density as high as 1000 Wh/l. Cell phones and laptops using these thin film batteries will be capable of running up to four times longer than on other lithium ion batteries having the same physical size.
Lithium-ion categories: are cobalt, manganese, iron-phosphate, polymer and nickel manganese-cobalt. These are the main types of commercialized battery in China. It remains to be seen how thin film batteries utilize these or other materials.
The worldwide demand for energy is steadily increasing, doubling every 15 years. The major effort is to sustain growth in the electricity supply without causing irreversible harm to the environment. Solar energy has rapidly grown as a clean, renewable alternative to limited fossil fuels. Recognition of the need to reduce reliance on coal and fossil fuels is driving interest in solar energy.
The need to reduce reliance on coal and fossil fuels is intuitive. The science agrees -- climate change is a reality. Citizens want to do something about climate change. Countries wish to not have dependence on foreign suppliers.
According to Susan Eustis, lead author of the study, "thin film solid state batteries bring smaller, more energy efficient batteries for use in virtually every portable device and every industry. Products will be used in all areas of the world." When thin film solid state batteries are looked at with respect to ROI and TCO, the units pay for themselves because of increased energy efficiency and support for many times more recharges, providing a longer lifetime for units. Batteries provide very attractive payback.
The global market for thin-film and printed batteries at $182.5 million in 2010 is expected to reach $3.6 billion by 2017. This market is expected to increase because it enables smarter computing and there is tremendous momentum for this in the market now. System design is accelerating the value of cloud smarter buildings, roads, appliances, and bridges. All these need sensors and all those need tiny batteries.
The total solid state batter market is anticipated to reach $ 20 billion sometime in 2023.

Reportstack Latest Report: Global and China Carbon Fiber Industry Report, 2010-2011
Carbon fiber, as a kind of reinforcing material, is mainly used in aerospace, wind power, automobile, sports and leisure fields, of which aerospace as a traditional application field of carbon fiber has witnessed a rising application ratio of carbon fiber in recent years; and the demand for carbon fiber from the emerging areas such as wind power, automobile and pressure vessel has been boosting as well. From 2006 to 2010, the annual growth rate of global demand for carbon fiber averaged 12.9%, soaring to nearly 40,000 tons in 2010.
In order to meet the increasingly growing demand, the global carbon fiber capacity has expanded rapidly, at an annual average growth rate of 26.4% in 2006-2008. Affected by financial crisis, most of the major carbon fiber manufacturers cancelled or suspended capacity expansion projects, lowering the capacity growth rate to 15.9% and 10.1% in 2009 and 2010 respectively. When the demand picked up in 2010, the carbon fiber expansion projects were started again one after another.
Since the production of carbon fiber requires sophisticated processes and high technology, the capacity of global carbon fiber is mainly concentrated in Japanese and American enterprises. Japan-based Toray, Toho and Mitsubishi Rayon mainly engage in the production of PAN-based small-tow (≤24K) carbon fiber, together accounting for 69.3% of the total capacity of small-tow products in 2010. Among them, Toray is the largest carbon fiber manufacturer in the world, with capacity of 17,900 tons.
U.S.-based Zoltek specializes in manufacturing PAN-based large-tow (> 24K) carbon fiber, with its capacity making up 54.1% of the total capacity of large-tow products in 2010. And Japan-based Kureha devotes itself to producing pitch-based carbon fiber and achieved capacity of 1,450 tons in 2010, ranking as the largest manufacturer of pitch-based carbon fiber in the world.
China carbon fiber industry is still in its infancy. Because of lack in core technology, the carbon fiber in China has been in short supply for a long time. In 2010, the capacity of China’s carbon fiber amounted to 6,855 tons, but the actual output was only over 1,000 tons, so 90% of carbon fiber relied on imports. The wide supply-demand gap in Chinese carbon fiber market has spurred the mushrooming of research programs and kiloton-level industrialization projects. As of August 2011, the planned capacity of carbon fiber in China has soared to 70,000-80,000 tons.
Currently, major carbon fiber producers in China include ZhongFuShenYing, Sinosteel Jilin Carbon and Jilin Qifeng Chemical Fiber. ZhongFuShenYing is the largest carbon fiber enterprise in China, with capacity reaching 1,200 tons in 2010. In 2011, the company newly launched 2,000 tons of capacity and has a total carbon fiber capacity of 3,200 tons at present.

Reportstack Latest Report: Global and China Low-E Glass Industry Report, 2010-2011
Low emissivity glass (Low-E glass) is a kind of coated glass with lower radiation and higher energy conservation performance. From 1990 to 2010, the global sales volume of Low-E glass grew rapidly, breaking 680 million square meters in 2010, with an average annual compound growth rate of 19.2%. In recent years, countries around the world have issued policies to encourage energy-saving building materials, effectively promoting the development of Low-E glass industry.
Currently, Low-E glass is popular in developed countries. The Low-E glass penetration rate reached 93% in Germany, 92% in South Korea, and 79% in Poland, while only 10.2% in China, therefore, Low-E glass has great development potentials in China.
In recent years, China's Low-E glass output has increased year by year. Currently, there are about 20 Low-E production lines under construction, most with a designed capacity of about 3 million square meters and to be put into production in 2012-2013.
Low-E glass production lines are mainly concentrated in enterprises including CSG, Xinyi Glass, Yaohua Glass, and Yaohua Pilkington. Most of them adopt off-line technology and have expansion plans. For example, the industry leader CSG is engaged in the production of off-line Low-E glass, with production bases in Dongguan, Tianjin, Chengdu and Wujiang; its Low-E glass project under construction in Hubei Province with an annual output of 4.20 million square meters will be put into production in H2 2013.
This report focuses on the production costs, production lines, competition pattern, and demand in China Low-E glass industry, and analyzes the operating environment (including policy, social and technical environment) for this industry.
