Plans have been agreed at the aleo solar EGM for the company to wind down through a liquidation, with as much as €50 million (US$69.1 million) of support provided by parent company Robert Bosch in order to avoid bankruptcy proceedings.

The decision clears the way for SCP Solar the JV company established by Sunrise Global Solar Energy and Japanese manufacturing machinery producer, CHOSHU Industry to own and operate aleo solar’s module manufacturing plant in Germany, saving around 200 jobs.
