TGC was said to have recently commissioned a 16.5 MW roof top project for the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power (LADWP) of which 10 MW was delivered by Sunpreme. 

Panos Ninios, TGC's Managing Partner said, “Following over three years of very positive product and customer service experience, we are now glad to raise our relationship with Sunpreme to a significantly higher level. We expect that Sunpreme will expand its production capacity, ideally with a US based manufacturing facility that creates new US high paying jobs in the solar business, while providing our Fund III limited partners with a secure source of high quality solar panels at attractive prices.” 

“We are gratified by the opportunity to partner with TGC, a visionary leader within the C&I space; it is currently a $20 billion segment, with a CAGR (Compound Annual Growth Rate) of over 15%,” said Ashok Sinha, the Chairman and CEO of Sunpreme.  “We estimate that Sunpreme's advanced technology increases solar project profitability by ~10% through increased energy production and systems level cost reductions, and expect for this to be sustainable, thanks to our innovation-driven cost roadmap.”

Sunpreme's high power modules are rated 380W, 400W and 420W (DC). Sunpreme announced the supply contract at Solar Power International 2017, being held in Las Vegas.

PV Tech has been running an annual PV CellTech Conference since 2016. PV CellTech USA, on 8-9 October 2024 is our second PV CellTech conference dedicated to the U.S. manufacturing sector. The event in 2023 was a sell out success and 2024 will once again gather the key stakeholders from PV manufacturing, equipment/materials, policy-making and strategy, capital equipment investment and all interested downstream channels and third-party entities. The goal is simple: to map out PV manufacturing in the U.S. out to 2030 and beyond.
