Swiss Solar Producer Meyer Burger Ready To Establish Presence in Australian Market

• Meyer Burger will offer its product portfolio "Made in Germany, made in Switzerland" at the country's largest solar trade show, the Smart Energy Conference as well as Exhibition from May 3 to 5 in Sydney. BayWa r.e. will be Meyer Burger's first distributor in Australia.

Switzerland based solar cell as well as module producer, Meyer Burger Technology AG prepares to set foot into Australia, where it will provide solar panels. Australia, the firms says, is a substantial as well as expanding market.

Meyer Burger will present its product portfolio "Made in Germany, designed in Switzerland" at the country's largest solar trade show, the Smart Energy Conference and also Exhibition from May 3 to 5 in Sydney. BayWa r.e. will be Meyer Burger's first distributor in Australia.

" BayWa is well known in the Australian market as a supplier of German-made photovoltaic panels, and also our team believe Meyer Burger will fill an essential gap in the Australian market," said Durmus Yildiz, Managing Director of BayWa r.e. solar systems in Australia. "For us it is particularly vital that Meyer Burger is sticking to sustainable production as well as sourcing practices, intending to continuously reduce the carbon footprint of its high-performance modules."
