Secure your customers investment
As part of a corporation whose diverse portfolio includes a broad range of
consumer electronics, we rely on a stable nancial backbone for our solar
PV business, comrmed by Bloomberg’s Tier 1 listing. In contrast to pure
solar manufacturers, we can withstand the uctuations of the highly volatile
solar markets. For our partners and customers, this means that we will be
around and by your side for a long time.
Long-term partnerships are built on trust,
strength, and reliability. When our com-
petitors started entering the market in the
late 1990s, SHARP already had about 40
years of experience with a wide range of
solar panel applications. We are proud of
this long heritage and the many success-
ful projects made possible by SHARP
solar panels around the globe.
