Frequently asked questions
How does First Solar source its proprietary deal flow?
First Solar does not source deal flow in the traditional venture sense. Its business is manufacturing and selling solar modules and power-plant development. It generates sales through competitive bidding on utility and commercial projects, long-term supply agreements with independent power producers, and bilateral contracts for turnkey EPC services.
Does First Solar participate in fund commitments or only direct deals?
First Solar does not make fund commitments. It is a product and project-services company. It sells modules, provides EPC and O&M services, and operates its own recycling business. It is not an investment allocator.
What investment stages does First Solar typically target?
First Solar does not target investment stages. It targets utility-scale and commercial solar power plants as a supplier. Its customers are project developers, utilities, and independent power producers.
Which sectors does First Solar explicitly avoid?
First Solar does not invest in other sectors. It focuses solely on solar photovoltaic technology and associated services. It avoids oil, gas, coal, nuclear, wind, and other energy technologies.
