Midsummer, one of the world's leading developers and suppliers of advanced solar solutions, has received a repeat order from Asia for thin film solar cells worth about 30 million SEK ($3.27 million).

A leading Swedish growth and export company, Midsummer said the production equipment will be delivered to the customer in the first half of next year and a partial payment will be made within 30 days.

The company is experiencing greater global interest especially in its proprietary compact system for fast, fully automated manufacturing of CIGS solar cells, it added.

Midsummer is a leading developer and supplier of advanced solar energy solutions for the production and installation of thin film solar cells.

"This repeat order is a strong indication that interest in our advanced solutions for the production and installation of thin film solar cells is growing in the Asian market," remarked CEO Sven Lindström.

"Several strong global trends support our business idea and operations, not just the general need to switch to renewable energy, but also technical and regulatory developments that make thin solar panels attractive in urban environments. Now, we intend to strengthen our production capacity further to meet the increased demand for our products," he added.-TradeArabia News Service
