CSI has recently completed the delivery of 11.7 MW solar modules to City Solar for three large-scale solar power projects in Germany.

The new 60 MW contract will expand the collaborations between the two companies from Germany to Spain, one of the fastest growing and strategically most important solar markets in the world.

CSI expects to introduce its PC200 new module type with City Solar. This new module product is capable of delivering 200-240W of output per unit and is specially designed to promote the maximum performance of City Solar's state- of-arts solar tracker systems.

Dr. Shawn Qu, CEO of CSI, commented, ''The expansion of our collaboration with City Solar is the latest example of the repeat orders we are winning from key customers in an important market segment. The combination of CSI's high- performance modules in City Solar system designs and project management has quickly gained market recognition for our two companies as one of the top- notch one-stop shopping solutions for high performance solar power plants.''

Mr. Steffen Kammler, CEO of City Solar, AG, commented, ''City Solar is one of the leading solar plant project management companies in Europe. City Solar's vast experience in large-scale solar plant project development, planning, implementation and financing arrangement has brought turn-key solutions to commercial renewable energy investors. We have developed unique solar tracking technologies to maximize solar module performance. We have so far implemented several solar farm projects in Germany using CSI modules and we are much impressed by CSI's superior module quality, after service technical support and its highly efficient and effective management team. We will continue to work closely with Canadian Solar for our future projects.''
