What
Sino Solar Exchange (SSE) is, at its simplest, an independent service for the solar industry.
SSE specializes in providing independent analysis of market trends and manufacturing facilities associated with China solar panels.
SSE seeks to facilitate access to Chinese manufacturers and support the supply of solar equipment to the market through our local agents.
SSE can also provide extensive quality control services on all shipments to allow importers to reduce risk professionally.
Why?
Solar equipment is expensive; it only works well in those areas where governments subsidize it. We strive to bring customers closer to the source of the products and work hard to reduce the risks associated with that. This way, solar energy becomes increasingly accessible to more people.
We help facilitate not only complete orders of containers but also support the growth of co-operative buying groups that allow people to purchase single or multiple pallets of an entire container.
SSE is aware that the solar market has experienced massive growth and there is a great need for independent analysis and transparency: SSE is not tied to any one brand or customer.
How?
Through a long standing presence in China, SSE is able to compile accurate information on pricing, lead time and availability. Through global experience and clientele SSE is able to forecast trends in the solar market and associated effects.
Offices in Hong Kong and Shanghai allow us to develop market analysis and local agents enable us to serve and support the end-user.
