China Sunergy signs PV-cell supply deal with Ajit Solar

China Sunergy has signed a one-year agreement to supply multicrystalline solar cells to privately owned Indian module manufacturer Ajit Solar. The deal calls for the PV manufacturer to deliver 12 MW of cells to Ajit next year.

The Nanjing-based company said it expects to deliver 5 MW of cells to the Jaipur-based firm (which is privately owned by the Gehlot Group) in the first half of the year, and the remaining 7 MW in the latter half.

"Our partnership with Ajit Solar marks a significant step for China Sunergy as we venture into the growing Indian solar market," commented Allen Wang, China Sunergy's CEO. "Despite the challenging market conditions, we continue to receive orders for our solar cells. We look forward to working closely with Ajit Solar and to further penetrating the Asian markets."

The Ajit deal news comes on the heels of China Sunergy's recent announcement of a supply contract with Solarwatt, which stipulates that the Chinese company provide 22 MW of monocrystalline cells to the German firm next year.

    This sixteenth edition of Photovoltaics International marks four years of production of the quarterly journal. As always, our focus is on efficiency and quality improvement and cost reduction in manufacturing. As 2012 rolls along, companies are falling by the wayside due to supply and demand issues, ASP declines and drastic governmental subsidy cuts. A clear picture of 2012 is offered through papers from the likes of TÜV Rheinland, Fraunhofer ISE, SEMI PV Group and EPIA, amongst others.
