aleo solar AG has secured long-term supply of solar cells for
manufacturing solar modules: a major supply contract with Q-Cells AG
guarantees the supply of solar cells with rated power totalling 100
megawatts. In total aleo solar has already secured about 450
megawatts for the next ten years by medium and long-term contracts
with suppliers.

"That means we have an extremely good supply of solar cells - despite
the continuing shortage of silicon. So we will also be able to
respond to future demand and ensure our continuous growth", says
Jakobus Smit, aleo solar board member.

Heiner Willers, also member of the aleo board: "With solar cells from
our partners, we are in the position to make the aleo modules,
renowned for their quality in Germany with their high energy yield,
the standard in Europe, and to advance our internationalisation."
