According to China-based Solarzoom, nearly 400MW of Chinese modules were exported to the Japanese domestic market in the fourth quarter of 2012.
In the list of top sales for the whole year, Suntech won first place with module sales of US$100 million, followed by JA Solar with US$70 million in sales, presenting itself as the most mentioned brand in the Japanese market. Canadian Solar earned third place with US$60 million in sales, according to Solarzoom.
PV EXPO 2013, to be held in Tokyo, Japan, this week has attracted many Chinese companies as it has become one of the markets with highest module ASPs and system installation prices.
Japan’s current FiT has provided new opportunities for downstream PV companies, resulting in many Chinese companies entering the market in Japan.
