UK-based Romag and Chinese LDK Solar have formed a research and development alliance to share their knowledge and expertise in the progress of solar technologies. This collaboration is the first of its kind for a UK PV module manufacturer.

Phil Murray, managing director of Romag, stated “The rapid growth of PV installations in the UK has demonstrated that there is a vibrant market for PV, in both residential and commercial markets. With customers facing constant increases in energy costs, we believe that the adoption of micro-generation technologies (such as PV) will continue to grow.

“The evidence is clear – PV is a reliable source of energy and clearly reduces damaging emissions into our environment. I’m delighted that Romag has joined forces with LDK Solar to share expertise in this field and develop products which are particularly suited to the UK and Europe.” 

Stuart Brannigan, vice president global sales and marketing, “As a Brit and an industry veteran of almost 25 years in the solar industry, I have watched the UK market develop over the last two to three years into one of the strongest in Europe.” 

Greg Barker, minister of state, said: “It is very rewarding to see China and the UK working together in this emerging industry in a true joint venture”.
