Suntech Power
Suntech is the world's largest producer of solar panels for residential, commercial, industrial and utility applications. With regional headquarters in China, Switzerland and the United States and gigawatt-scale manufacturing worldwide, Suntech has delivered more than 13,000,000 photovoltaic panels to over 1,000 customers in more than 80 countries.
Suntech invests millions of dollars each year in long-term research partnerships with Sydney company CSG Solar and the University of NSW's globally-renowned solar research facility – the ARC Centre of Excellence for Advanced Silicon Photovoltaics and Photonics. Suntech's chief executive officer, chief operating officer and chief technology officer are all alumni of the University of NSW.
In partnership with NSW-based Infigen Energy, Suntech has received State Government planning approval to build NSW's first commercial solar farm as part of the Australian Government's Solar Flagships program. The solar farm would use advanced technology developed by Suntech in collaboration with UNSW.
To assist Suntech's investment in NSW, Industry & Investment NSW provided referrals to relevant government and research bodies and advice on government programs and policies.
With strong ties to NSW, Suntech's work in developing and commercialising advanced solar technology is making it possible for millions of people in China, Australia and around the world to harness nature's cleanest and most abundant energy resource.
