Mr. Young commented, "As the only California solar company with a manufacturing base in Shanghai, we are well positioned to benefit from increased clean technology relations between the U.S. and China. California represents a very large opportunity for the PV industry and we hope to benefit through our presence in both regions. There are a solid number of U.S./California-based PV system integrators looking for new suppliers and we believe our solar cells and modules can be utilized for residential housing projects, PV power stations, as well as for on and off-grid projects in the U.S. market. We believe this conference will also serve as an opportunity for Solar Enertech to increase the visibility of its unique solar product applications for the rapidly growing Chinese domestic market."
