Solaria, Canadian Solar settle shingled PV patent disagreement
- United States solar supplier Solaria has actually settled patent infringement asserts against Canadian Solar after winning a United States International Trade Commission (ITC) ruling.
Under the terms of the arrangement, Canadian Solar has actually accepted stop importing shingled solar modules to the United States while Solaria will terminate its litigations against the module supplier after the ITC ruled in favour of Solaria in October 2021.
The suit started after Canadian Solar "disregarded" and also broke Solaria's core copyright for two patents, said Tony Alvarez, CEO at Solaria.
"Solaria stays open up to cooperating with firms that recognize the value of Solaria's IP; we have actually licensed Solaria's technology to other firms in the sector. However, Solaria will proactively defend our IP against any infringers, and also secure our innovation for ourselves and also our valued partners," included Alvarez.
Canadian Solar will certainly stop importing shingled PV modules into the US for seven years.
