Case Studies: Contract Signed for 120MW PV Module Purchase by a Leading European Developer
A top European developer planned to buy PV modules using Topcon solar cells, new, unproven technology at the time. They wanted to strengthen the technical annexure of their purchase contract to reduce risks.
Challenge
– How to manage risks of using a new, untested PV module technology?
– How to make sure the technology fits the project’s needs?
Solution
STS formed a team of PV module experts who:
– Created a tailored technical annexure template
– Reviewed the manufacturer’s proposed changes and assessed the risks of each, helping the client make informed decisions
Result
In under 4 weeks, the client signed a contract with the manufacturer. The agreement included all key technical protections and addressed all medium and high risks related to the new technology.
