中電光伏正試圖延長現有的禁令，繼續起訴REC 并要求法院繼續凍結支付給REC5000萬美元的付款。

同時REC也表示，REC與中國光伏制造商保持著長期的硅片供應協議。該公司也備案了關于REC晶片合法地位的一個法令，比如，中電光伏的哪項索賠不是與REC簽署合約，后來由REC SITECH證實。目前的禁令將持續到2009年10月15日。

最近德國的歐洲國際光伏展舉行期間，在一次關于光伏技術的電視采訪中，REC公開說和中電光伏的合約很重要。

REC現已拒絕在采訪中或雜志上公開發表意見, 現在更傾向于讓案件由挪威法院審判。

REC說九月份為就供應協議修改與中電光伏達成一致意見，已作出很多努力，但是決定請求在現有限時賠償基礎上去保護其利益

幾年前由于多晶硅供應不足和價格不斷上漲， 長期的不提貨亦付費合約被采用。

由于國際金融危機，大量的多晶硅和硅片供應已經被迫降低合同價格， 并且調整出貨量，例如降低合約價格。/譯:Solarbe光伏網Sunnie

China Sunergy continues bid to prevent REC accessing US$50 million bank guarantees

China Sunergy is attempting to gain an extension to an existing injunction, preventing REC from accessing US$50 million in various bank guarantees the Chinese PV manufacturer made in relation to long-term wafer supply agreements. However, the company is also filing a legal writ regarding the legal status of REC Wafer Norway AS, which China Sunergy claims was not the party to the contract as this had been signed with REC SITECH, which was later reorganized by REC. The current injunction lasts until October 15th, 2009.

China Sunergy has been publically vocal on the move by REC and was critical of
REC’s conduct in a video interview with PV-Tech, during the recently held EU  PVSEC event
in Hamburg.

REC has currently declined to publically comment on the remarks made in the video interview, or on the issues detailed by its customer, preferring to keep the case in the Norwegian courts for the time being.

REC said in September that it had made serious efforts to reach an agreement with China Sunergy over the supply contract renewal but had decided to call upon the existing time-limited bank guarantees to protect its interests.

A large number of polysilicon and wafer suppliers have been forced to lower contract prices and adjust shipment quantities as spot prices fall below contract prices. Long-term take-or-pay contracts were introduced several years ago due to the insufficient supply of polysilicon and rapidly rising prices.
