JA Solar, has just issued a very bullish forecast for 2007 - a tripling of revenue and an increase in output to 100 megawatts from 75 in 2006. As I posted about the company last week, JA Solar has some great vertical integration going for it. And unlike some Chinese companies, this one has made some real effort to put together a website with clean lines and good english. Although I was a bit taken aback to read that they plan to have a production output of 175 MW by the 3rd quarter of 2007, when as per the report above the target was 100 Megawatts by end 2007. Scaling up solar power production is not easy - but to have one report in the press and another on your website cannot be correct.

I believe Forbes has got it wrong - but have emailed JA Solar to check as Reuters is reporting 175 MW like the company.
