Huiyin History

展望.jpg

  Livien VEN, an automation engineer and father of Juha VEN started activities in the solar thermal industry as early as 1978. Livien had developed a process computer and was successful in selling these to the steel, glass and power industry in Europe.  This time also saw the first energy crisis in Europe and many companies were looking at solar energy. For Livien harnessing the suns energy was all about process control.

  Juha has been all of his active career involved in production of solar thermal components and systems. His first CSP patents date back to 1981. By 1985 the first vacuum receivers were being constructed and tested in demonstration plants.

  In 1992 Juha founded Solel with his brother Kari. This company was sold to Siemens, creating an immense value to the Solel shareholders and although the product has not seen any technical improvements for over 10 years is still the main supplier of vacuum receivers for parabolic troughs.

  In 1997 Mr. Ven developed a receiver including secondary optics and an advanced air stable selective surface for a large fresnel systems. In august 2000 Mr. Ven patented this new design.

  Mr. Ven and Mrs Kang created Huiyin in 2002. The company was originally in Beijing and grew fast during its first years.

  Huiyins original business model was to produce high quality products in China and to sell them to their clients in Europe. Huiyin became the research and development center for these European clients, new solar thermal collectors were designed, tested and mass produced in China and sold into Europe.  The combination of engineering know-how, new design techniques and the low cost of developing new products and production lines in a very short time has given our European clients an edge and made them successful in their markets.
