The first DUO machine for the Russian market was shipped, Midsummer announced.
This is the first machine delivered under the Midsummer-Rusnano framework agreement.
“The novel coronavirus pandemic has made it impossible to travel to Sweden from the countries and regions where our machine customers are located," said Sven Lindström, CEO, Midsummer. "This has caused difficulties for us to make acceptance-tests and install our already sold DUO machines. Thanks to a new procedure, that makes it possible to make final approvals through video link instead of on location in Järfälla, we have now been able to perform the acceptance-test and ship the machine to Russia."
The DUO machine will be installed in a factory in Saransk, about 630 km east of Moscow.
The factory will be run by Nanotechnology and Nanomaterials Center of the Republic of Mordovia and their partner Solartek which promotes solutions for integrated solar roofs.
