Solar Energy Initiatives, Inc. has reached an agreement with Suntech America where Suntech will serve as the sole supplier of solar electric generation equipment for a 1+ MW installation for a US mountain state municipality.

“The Company’s rapidly expanding dealer network and strategic business model present what we believe to be a mutually beneficial relationship to be able to deploy solar power to individuals, commercial real estate and municipalities located throughout the United States and the Caribbean. Suntech looks forward to developing future projects with Solar Energy Initiatives and its dealer network.” Mr. Fann concluded, “Suntech’s reputation and expertise will present a significant asset during this first multi-million dollar commercial project.
