The scale and speed of Hareon Solar's rise is phenomenal by any measure. The Chinese module maker sprang into existence just ten short years ago and today it manufactures more than 1.6 GW of cells and 1.1 GW of modules annually. The unique "poly to parks" business model helps shore up Hareon Solar's standing. During Solar 2014 Hareon Solar's Ray Wilson displayed images of a sprawling 29.3 MW solar PV plant under construction in Bulgaria. Amid acres of snow and slush covered fields the $108 million plant took shape, emerging as a sea of PV panels in just eight short weeks. Setting a cracking pace is the hallmark of Hareon Solar, whose meteoric rise to a top tier vertically integrated solar module manufacturer has been powered by solar visionary Samuel Yang. The leading light in China's photovoltaic industry already had a string of successful ventures to his name, having co-founded three of China's largest PV companies: Suntech, JA Solar and China Sunergy.
