Solar system installer E-Village Inc. of San Diego, California, and solar module manufacturer ENN Solar of Langfang, China, have formed a joint venture to bring utility-grade 5.7 square meter thin film solar modules to the U.S. photovoltaic market. Under the agreement, the partnership will provide 25 megawatts (MW) of solar modules to the U.S. market through 2009 on a 50-50 basis.
ENN Solar plans on reaching 500MW module production capacity in China by 2011. Collaborating with Applied Materials (Nasdaq: AMAT), a global leader in semiconductor and solar module fabrication equipment, ENN Solar Energy introduced the cutting-edge SunFab Thin Film Si production line to manufacture ultra-large module designed with multi-MW installations in mind.
"We are excited to have found an industry-leading partner to bring our product onto the global stage at the forefront of clean production and application of solar energy", said Dr. Ted Guo, Senior Vice President for ENN Solar Energy.
