PVTIME – AIKO has signed a 100MW distribution agreement for the region of Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) with Menlo Electric. This partnership comes as AIKO begins the global delivery of its third-generation INFINITE ABC modules, setting new industry benchmarks in efficiency and performance. Meanwhile, Menlo Electric has been ranked No.1 in the Financial Times FT1000: Europe’s Fastest Growing Companies 2024, marking a major milestone for the energy sector. It is also the first Polish company to ever top the ranking, underscoring Poland’s growing role in the renewable energy industry.
This partnership marks a significant milestone in AIKO’s CEE expansion, further strengthening its presence in one of Europe’s most dynamic solar markets. Under this collaboration, Menlo Electric will distribute AIKO’s cutting-edge solar modules throughout Poland—ensuring broader access to advanced photovoltaic technology for residential, commercial, and industrial projects. AIKO’s N-Type BC technology delivers up to 9% more power compared to TOPCon for the same module size, providing higher energy yield, superior partial shading optimization, and unmatched reliability.
“Central and Eastern Europe represents a pivotal market in AIKO’s European growth strategy,” said Abdellah Rouggal, Head of CEE at AIKO. “Poland stands out as a key driver, but the entire region holds immense potential for our N-Type BC technology. Menlo Electric’s strong distribution network and industry know-how make them the ideal partner for introducing AIKO’s modules to the rapidly expanding market. Together, we will accelerate the adoption of high-efficiency ABC modules and support European clean energy transition.”
“Back Contact Technology is the next step in the evolution of photovoltaic modules, and thanks to AIKO, this groundbreaking innovation is more accessible than ever,” commented Bartosz Majewski, CEO at Menlo Electric. “By bringing AIKO’s advanced solutions to Poland, we can better meet the surging demand for high-quality renewable energy products. Together, we’re setting new benchmarks in solar technology and efficiency. With an established presence in over 40 international markets, Menlo Electric brings extensive market reach and marketing expertise to the partnership.
“Menlo is always responsive to industry needs by introducing innovative products like AIKO’s offerings.” Majewski continued. “We regularly host technical workshops and webinars to ensure our customers can fully appreciate and effectively implement breakthrough PV technologies like AIKO’s N-Type BC Technology. This partnership aligns perfectly with our approach to creating value in the PV sector.”
As the pioneer of mass production in BC technology, AIKO continues to push the limits of photovoltaic conversion efficiency, driving the world toward a zero-carbon future. The collaboration with Menlo Electric reinforces AIKO’s commitment to delivering premium solar solutions and supporting the rapid growth of renewable energy in Poland.
