eSolar and Sanmina-SCI will collaborate to optimize eSolar’s solar collector system product offering – a system already deployed in operating CSP facilities.
eSolar Operations senior vice president Gary Breton said, "Sanmina-SCI’s global reach perfectly match eSolar’s demonstrated advantage in simple, reliable hardware and industry-leading system software. As we continue to pursue large-scale solar projects worldwide, we need a partner who will optimize our products for manufacturability, scalability and cost-efficiency."
eSolar’s modular and scalable CSP plant design utilizes sun tracking equipment that is easy to install,
Sanmina-SCI, through a joint engineering effort with eSolar designers, will bring its manufacturing and supply chain design input to the table.
Sanmina-SCI Industrial Markets executive vice president Tom Clawson said, "eSolar is making an important contribution in the global quest to produce renewable energy cost-competitively, and we are privileged to be selected to support this design effort."
Sanmina-SCI is an electronics contract manufacturer serving the fastest-growing segments of the global Electronics Manufacturing Services market.
