James Hu, Vice President of GCL-SI and head of Overseas Sales said, “The cooperation with APSU Power marks the first time we have sold standardization solutions for power stations. It's also a major step for GCL-SI towards becoming a player in mainstream markets of developed countries. Facing fierce competition from European players, we have won not only the bid but the respect and recognition of clients.”

Several 2.5MW Super Block Solar solutions have already been supplied to projects in China and the US. 

“Now that we have clients in regions including South America, South Africa and Australia, we will put more effort towards expanding into overseas markets and driving green energy utilization everywhere,” added Shu Hua, President of GCL-SI.
