Is the Canadian Solar board manufacturing company still operating in Brazil?
Ericka, good afternoon,
We are from the Nautical industry, currently
we manufacture small boats up to 30″
Your article on the ranking of the world PV equipment industry interested us for the development of national or Chinese industries that want to partner to supply solar panels for the supply of energy for power supply and consequent production of energy for powering boats.
Please, I need an indication of these specialized manufacturers focused on our area of activity in national or Chinese industry.
I am at your disposal for any clarifications.
I await your return contact,
Hugs

Good Morning!
Thank you for the information, but instead of a survey to find out who has the highest sales volume, what would be more interesting for us in the sector is to know the quality ranking of the manufactured modules.
If possible…
Thank you very much!
Greetings, I would like to receive updates regarding regulation, and ranking of equipment and brands.
