First Solar, Inc. has signed an agreement with Strata Solar for the procurement of an incremental 400 megawatts (MW)DC of First Solar’s advanced thin film photovoltaic modules, with delivery expected from 2017 into 2018.
With this agreement, Strata - one of the top utility-scale solar project developers and builders in the United States - will have purchased more than 1,000 MWDC from First Solar in a long-standing relationship between the two major players in the solar industry.
“Strata has a relentless focus on quality, efficiency, and flawless execution, so it’s critical for us to have world-class technology partners like First Solar,” said Markus Willem, CEO of Strata Solar.
Strata expects to install the modules in a series of solar projects in the southern and eastern US. Georges Antoun, First Solar’s president, US, noted that First Solar has now sold more than 1.8GW of modules in the southeastern US, with modules either sold to outside developers, EPC contractors, or used in First Solar’s own projects.
