United Renewable considers raising pricesBy Lisa Wang / Staff reporterUnited Renewable Energy Co (URE, 聯合再生), the nation’s biggest supplier of solar cells and modules, yesterday said that it is considering raising prices further in the second half of this year due to rising raw material costs. The United Renewable Energy Co booth is pictured at the Energy Taiwan Expo at the Taipei Nangang Exhibition Center’s Hall 1 on Sept. 19, 2018. “Price pressure remains heavy in the third quarter,” Pan said. The nation is expected to install about 2.2 gigawatts of solar energy systems this year — a conservative URE forecast, she said. As renewable energy sources such as solar and wind energy are unstable, Taipower plans to launch its first automotive frequency control services using URE’s storage system, she added.
