Flextronics to help Petra Solar expand worldwide deployment of SunWave module

In an effort to position Petra Solar’s SunWave modules to customers around the world, Flextronics has agreed to build Petra’s modules. The SunWave module is a distributed solar power generation and management system.

"As Petra Solar continues to expand locally and around the world, it is important to partner with leaders in the industry to further enable us to continue developing our products with the highest levels of quality and reliability,” said Shihab Kuran, founder, president, and CEO of Petra Solar. "Flextronics’ global reach and well-deserved reputation for market leading clean tech manufacturing solutions that provide compelling value and scale reaffirm our decision that the Flextronics-Petra Solar collaboration will contribute to the rapid deployment of our products globally and in the United States, and that the collaboration will lead to the creation of many green jobs."

Petra’s system provides three main aspects including monitoring and reporting the operation and health of the SunWave units, remote command and control of the units, and a cost-effective base for systems such as advanced metering infrastructure and load management or demand response programs.
