YHS to exclusively distribute Yingli Green modules in Japan

Yingli Green Energy has signed an exclusive module distribution agreement with YHS.

Under the terms of the contract, YHS will purchase modules totalling 10MW and take on the role of Yingli’s sole Japanese residential market distributor.

The agreement will run until December with the first shipment due for delivery in the second half of the year.

"In light of the recent events in Japan, more countries and regions are expected to switch towards safer, cleaner and lower carbon energy generation sources which increases the need for renewables. As a leading solar energy company, we are committed to meeting this increasing demand worldwide," said Yingli chairman and CEO Liansheng Miao.
