"Our full line of 60-cell and 72-cell multicrystalline and monocrystalline modules has become increasingly known for their superior technology and performance," Li added.
"Moreover, we hope to develop a long-term relationship with Solar Planet as we build our business in the Americas and capitalise on the region’s growing solar market."
Siyd Tawana, Solar Planet president, said this partnership with ReneSola will help his company reach its big growth plans much faster and smoother.
"We are shooting for about $200m in solar projects at schools and other public and private sites over the next two years," Tawana added.
