China Technology Development Group (CTDC) to Acquire Majority Interest in On-Grid Solar Power Station Business
HONG KONG, Oct. 27, 2009 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — China Technology Development Group Corporation (Nasdaq:CTDC) (“CTDC” or “the Company”), a growing integrated clean energy group based in China that provides solar energy products and solutions, today announced that the Company has entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Stock Purchase Agreement”) with China Technology Solar Power Holdings Limited (“CTSPHL Group”) and its direct and indirect shareholders to acquire a 51% equity interest and become the major shareholder of CTSPHL Group.
CTSPHL Group, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, is developing a 100MW grid-connected solar power plant project located in Delingha City of Qaidam Basin in Qinghai Province, Northwestern China (the “Delingha 100MW Solar Project”). Upon closing of the acquisition, the Company and CTSPHL Group will jointly develop the Delingha 100MW Solar Project. CTDC believes that its co-development of the Delingha 100MW Solar Project will further its goal of becoming an integrated solar company with strong capabilities in designing, building and operating solar power plants.
CTSPHL Group has obtained a 25-year operating license from the Qinghai Provincial Development and Reform Commission for the first phase of the Delingha 100MW Solar Project, consisting of 10MW. Construction commenced on the first phase on 28th September 2009 and is expected to be completed by the end of 2010. Warm congratulations on the project commencement were received from Liaison Office of the Central People’s Government in Hong Kong S.A.R, and Mr. Shi Dinghuan, Counselor of State Council of the PRC and Director General of Chinese Renewable Energy Association. Mr. Shi commented, “China’s new energy industry is only at its beginning stage. We really welcome more overseas companies to work together with local PV companies to grow and strengthen the new energy sector.”
“We are very pleased to become a controlling shareholder of CTSPHL Group. This marks a significant step that CTDC has made to enter into the solar power station arena and become one of the first overseas listed Chinese companies to hold an operating license from the Chinese government to operate on-grid solar power stations in China,” commented by Mr. Alan Li, Chairman and CEO of the Company. “The Chinese government has been very supportive of the development of renewable energy. Chinese President Hu Jintao listened to our project briefing in March in Beijing with great interest. He highly praised our endeavor in solar plant development. On September 22, 2009, President Hu reiterated China’s goal of reaching 15% renewable energy by 2020 at the UN climate summit in New York.”
Mr. Li further commented, “In response to President Hu’s call for a greener and cleaner environment, we are greatly honoured to undertake the responsibility and looking forward to closely cooperating with CTSPHL Group and Qinghai local governments. We are committed to making the Qaidam Basin a leading solar power plant base in the world.”
