Through their wholly-owned subsidiary, GCL-Poly Energy Holdings and NRG Solar have formed a new joint venture, Sunora Energy Solutions 1. Each of the shareholders owns 50% interest in the JV, which will build selected projects developed by NRG Solar using GCL-Poly’s PV system equipment and NRG’s racking technologies.

GCL-Poly additionally advised that since the beginning of Q4 2011 and early 2012, it had provided 70MW of PV equipment to NRG Solar. The company anticipates having an opportunity to supply NRG Solar with 200MW of equipment each year until the end of 2014.

Gongshan Zhu, chairman of GCL-Poly, commented on the joint venture, stating that “NRG Solar is one of the largest PV project developers in the United States. We are pleased to collaborate with NRG Solar where we can maximize the values of performance-optimized system equipment. This transaction is our first step toward a strong and strategic partnership with NRG Solar. We look forward to bringing the value of GCL-Poly to a fast-growing US solar market through this partnership.”

  • Photovoltaics International 19th Edition

    For manufacturers who had their heads in the bunker during 2012, fighting falling ASPs and eroding margins, the nineteenth edition brings you details of what lies in store for this coming year. Wright Williams & Kelly return in this issue with their popular analysis of payback on technology buys; crucially they analyze n-type wafers, Al2O3 passivation and copper metallization. SERIS shows us how to achieve 18.7% efficiencies using low-cost etching techniques on diffused wafers. We also have two important technology roundups: CIGS from Helmholtz Berlin, and PV module encapsulation techniques from Fraunhofer ISE.
