Q Cells Seeks USA Entry
QSolar files an application for UL certification in the United States
QSolar has filed an application to obtain Underwriters Laboratories (UL) certification in the United States. UL certification is required for the Company to sell its' products in the United States and the process of receiving this certification is substantially the same as the European certification process which QSolar has already received. The UL certification is required in order for the Company to fulfil the $74.5 million letter of intent received from Commercial Solar Design Inc. of California as previously announced on April 21, 2011.
Andreas Tapakoudes, President & CEO of QSolar commented, "We fully expect to complete the UL certification this year. This will be an important milestone because it opens up the very large US marketplace to QSolar's leading Spraytek, Kristal and Kristal Rainbow product lines and provides eligibility for the various incentive programs that are available by US regulators."
