Xingxue Tong, President and CEO of LDK Solar said: “After providing 63MW of modules to Energy Absolute PCL's project in Nakornsawan last year, this follow-on order exhibits LDK's commitment to our customers and the region.”

LDK Solar has not announced such supply deals with any other company since that time.

In a separate announcement, LDK Solar subsidiary SPI Solar has signed a 50MW PV power plant project with the government of Fenyi County, Jiangxi Province, China, without providing timelines or financial terms.

US-OTC listed developer SPI Solar has been impacted by the chronic financial position of its Cayman Island registered parent and has only recently secured financing to continue operating.
