Frederic Telander, CEO Advanced SolTechs and Stefan \u00d6lander, CEO SolTech Energy comment:<\/span><\/span><\/strong>
\n\u2013 We have previously communicated a goal to achieve an installed solar capacity equivalent to 1 GW (1000 MW) during 2023, which is fully connected to the electricity grid in 2024, which corresponds to the power of a nuclear reactor in Forsmark. To achieve this goal, as previously announced, we plan to list ASAB\u2019s shares on Nasdaq First North Growth Market during the first part of 2020. As part of our new expansion and financing plan for the Chinese operations, we are now entering into a collaboration with DNB Markets and Nordea intend to turn to a wider circle of institutional investors.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
