Q CELLS has entered into a license agreement with an unnamed German solar module manufacturer to allow the company access to Q CELLS’ patent-protected solar cell passivation technology.

“As a pioneer in the solar industry, Q CELLS has a long R&D history of developing industry-leading technology and has taken several actions to protect our intellectual property rights over the course of the past two years,” says Dr. Daniel Jeong, CTO of Q CELLS.

“In doing so, Q CELLS has always strived to protect a fair and healthy competition for the best technology in solar industry,” continues Dr. Jeong. “Now, we are very glad to take a major step forward together with this German solar manufacturer to establish this fair competition environment, which is an important prerequisite for the sustainable growth of the solar industry.”
