Solar EnerTech is pleased to announce the latest shipment from the Company’s facility in Shanghai. The solar modules are being shipped to the Port of Capetown for delivery to one of Africa’s largest solar system integrators.
The company believes the demand in Africa will grow in 2007 potentially reaching 15 Mw. The recent shipment could assist the company in being an exclusive supplier for this African company.
Because of Africa’s strategic location in relation to the sun, it is believed to be one of the best natural locales for solar applications. The continent receives very high direct irradiation and long periods of sunlight, with an average temperature exceeding 75 degrees.
The President of Solar EnerTech, Leo S. Young, stated, “With this first shipment to Africa, and with the relationship resulting from the visit of Mme Jeanne Dambendzet, senior Minister of the Congolese government last month, we’re really excited to be at the vanguard of companies breaking into the African solar market.”
