Bruce Ludemann, Vice President and General Manager of Hanwha SolarOne, North America, added, "The North American market is key to our long term success and SunEdison has helped us establish a respected  presence in the U.S. and Canadian markets.  We expect to build on our successes in 2010 and continue to be a key supplier and partner to SunEdison for many years to come. As a result of this project and others in our pipeline, we expect shipments to North America in 2011 to exceed 100 MW, which would double our volume from 2010."
