According to the agreement Supply Partners will sell 10MW of modules for Phono Solar per year in the next three years. This agreement undoubtedly helps Phono Solar further consolidate its position in the Australian market, following its recent agreement with Australian owned REDSET, and lays a solid foundation for its long-term development in the region.

Supply Partners Business Development Manager John Degotardi commented on the agreement saying “The team at Supply Partners is pleased to distribute on behalf of Phono Solar for the Australian market due to their long manufacturing business history and the fact they are already honouring warranties on a range of products in the Australian market”.
