Trina Solar Limited will supply 25 MW of solar modules to Phase III of the 75-MW Bangchak Solar Energy Project in Thailand. The project is owned by Bangchak Solar Energy Co., Ltd. and Bangchak Solar Energy Co., Ltd., the subsidiaries of Bangchak Solar Energy co., Ltd. and will be constructed by Gunkul Engineering Public Company.
Trina Solar is expected to commence shipment in late December. “We are very pleased to collaborate with BSE, a leading solar power plant operator in Thailand,” says Jifan Gao, chairman and CEO of Trina Solar. “This is a significant module supply contract for Trina Solar in Thailand and demonstrates our continued commitment to delivering on our strategy of market diversification. Thailand is a leading emerging solar market in South East Asia. We look forward to growing our presence in Thailand’s solar market in 2014 and to contributing to the realization of a more secure, clean and independent solar energy for Thailand.”
“This solar project further supports Thailand’s National Energy Policy Commission’s new target of delivering 1,000 MW of solar power by 2014 and 2,000 MW of solar power through utility projects by 2021 incented by feed-in-tariffs for rooftop and community ground-mounted solar projects, signaling high-level support for Thailand’s solar sector,” says the management of Bangchak Solar Energy.
