In
an agreement with an as-yet-unnamed U.S. energy solutions supplier, LDK
Solar Co., Ltd. will deliver approximately 90MW of multicrystalline
silicon solar wafers for a three-year period commencing in 2009. The
‘take or pay’ contract will see the customer supply at least 300MT of
polysilicon to LDK in the form of a down payment for part of the
contract value, which was also undisclosed.
