“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.
