Solar Power Inc. has signed an exclusive deal to sell its crystalline-silicon solar PV modules to Australian solar developer, Beyond Building Systems. The two-year supply agreement, which calls for a minimum purchase of 5.7 MW of modules, provides BBS with exclusive access to SPI’s 170-220-W panels for use throughout Australia, according to SPI.
The BBS agreement marks SPI’s initial foray into the Australian PV market and represents another step in the company’s international expansion efforts.
