  . Meyer Burger receives certification for all its solar module products from VDE Renewables 
  . Meyer Burger's high-performance solar modules show significantly lower degradation compared to market standard 
  . To promote quality leadership of European solar modules, Meyer Burger and VDE agree on close partnership 
  . Test laboratory commissioned at Freiberg site for continuous quality assurance 
The high-performance solar modules manufactured by Meyer Burger Technology Ltd in Germany have received their necessary 
certifications as planned. The process included testing according to IEC 61215 and IEC 61730 standards and was 
conducted by the internationally recognized certification partner VDE Renewables ("VDE"). 
"With the certification measurements, we were able to determine that Meyer Burger's modules exhibited significantly 
lower degradation when measured against the market standard," said VDE Managing Director Burkhard Holder. In addition 
to the products, the VDE also audited Meyer Burger's solar module production facilities at the Freiberg (Saxony) site. 
Holder: "This audit as well confirmed Meyer Burger's internationally leading quality standard." 
For future quality assurance and certification, Meyer Burger has now also selected VDE as a partner for further global 
cooperation. "The key criteria for selecting VDE have been its high level of expertise and reliability as well as its 
high level of recognition among financial institutions and insurance companies," said Gunter Erfurt, CEO of Meyer 
Burger Technology Ltd. "This high recognition of VDE among financing partners for solar projects is essential for Meyer 
Burger, as it facilitates our planned entry into the business in the solar power plant segment." Another key unique 
selling point of VDE's holistic approach to renewable energy is its focus on sustainability and recyclability of 
products, he said. 
Together, Meyer Burger and VDE want to work towards even higher quality and reliability standards for the benefit of 
end customers of solar modules worldwide and thereby contribute to fair competitive conditions. In this way, Meyer 
Burger would like to defend its quality leadership, which it has already proven as a technology supplier, in module 
production as well. 
Meyer Burger has also acquired the assets of the former central laboratory for quality assurance of solar modules of 
Solarworld AG in Freiberg and has taken it back into operation. This fully equipped quality assurance laboratory will 
become part of the network of premium laboratories qualified worldwide by the VDE. This will enable Meyer Burger to 
continuously ensure the highest quality standards worldwide and achieve high speed and flexibility in the introduction 
and continuous improvement of its products. 
Operating its own fully accredited quality assurance laboratory is virtually unique in the industry and underscores 
Meyer Burger's claim to quality leadership. CEO Gunter Erfurt: "I am very much looking forward to the close cooperation 
with the VDE. Also, we will be able to demonstrate our high quality standards even better to our customers in the 
future during visits to our quality assurance laboratory."
