JA Solar and Canadian Solar Sign Solar Cell Supply Agreement

 

Jiangsu and Hebei, China, April 2, 2007 – JA Solar Holdings Co., Ltd. (“JA Solar”) (NASDAQGM: JASO) and Canadian Solar Inc.

Samuel Yang, JA Solar’s Chief Executive Officer, commented, “CSI is a good example of the fast growing, high-quality, global manufacturer we continue to successfully partner and grow with. This is an important agreement for both companies.”
