The center integrates product display, technical collaboration, customer service, and PV-storage solution deployment, strengthening support for Europe’s fast-growing distributed PV and storage market.
It enables localized, customized solutions and faster response times, shifting Suntech’s presence in Europe from product supply to integrated energy services. This further reinforces its long-term commitment to building a resilient regional supply and service network.

Suntech honored seven long-term European partners for their outstanding collaboration and joint value creation: Energy Depot, Green Energy Supplier, Donauer Solartechnik Vertriebs GmbH, ASACO General Trading, Greentops Neto Ltd., and Regen Renewables.
Following the certificate ceremony, key customers shared remarks on their long-term cooperation with Suntech, praising a stable and mutually beneficial partnership. They noted the European PV market’s volatility and strict requirements, and highlighted Suntech’s reliability in product quality, delivery, and localized service, which supports partners’ stable operations across cycles.
Over 25 years, Suntech has navigated industry cycles and global challenges while maintaining stable delivery capabilities and a strong international footprint.
To date, cumulative shipments have exceeded 50 GW across residential, C&I, and utility applications, reinforcing the company’s global reputation for reliability. The evening also featured a traditional Munich beer barrel tapping ceremony led by Suntech’s senior management, symbolizing enduring trust and long-term partnership in Europe.
The gala marked both a reflection on 25 years of global collaboration and a renewed commitment to Europe’s clean energy future. Suntech will continue advancing high-efficiency PV technologies, strengthening its localized European service network, and enhancing supply chain resilience.
