Vikram Solar partners with Finnwind, enters Finnish market

Vikram Solar has entered into a strategic partnership with system integrator, manufacturer and installer of renewable energy systems Finnwind. Under this partnership Finnwind will supply Vikram Solar modules to the Finnish market.

VikramSolar’s polycrystalline Eldora solar modules are certified for area loads of 5,400 Pa and are therefore especially suited to the extreme conditions in Finland.

JuhaPölönen – Partner, Sales & Marketing at Finnwind said “Finland has harsh weather conditions and solar panels must not only resist the heavy snow loads but also perform for many years under these conditions. The fact that utilities have already had positive experiences with Vikram Solar modules is another important factor for our customers and partners in the energy industry.”

“With approximately 5 MW of installed capacity in 2015, the Finnish market is still comparatively small, but we expect continuous growth including of our project volumes in Finland”, said DavideMarro, Head of Sales and Business Development Europe at Vikram Solar. He further added “In addition, geographic proximity allows us to better meet the needs of customers in other Scandinavian markets such as Sweden as well as implement projects in Estonia”.
