About the China venture
SolTech Energy’s investment in China is conducted in a joint venture with our partner, Advanced Solar Power Hangzhou Inc, Advanced SolTech Renewable Energy (Hangzhou) Co. Ltd. (ASRE). The business model consists of ASRE financing, installing, owning and continuously maintaining solar energy installations on customers’ roofs.
