ARaymond and LONGi have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) at Intersolar Europe 2026 to explore potential areas of collaboration across solar photovoltaic and energy systems. The agreement reflects a shared ambition to leverage complementary expertise and support the development of high-performance, scalable solutions for the global energy transition.
The MoU was signed on June 24 in Munich during Intersolar Europe, formalizing initial discussions between the two companies. The agreement sets the framework for discussions combining LONGi’s expertise in PV modules and battery energy storage systems (BESS) with ARaymond’s capabilities in fastening, grounding, and cable management.
The signing ceremony took place at the event, with representatives from both organizations, including Wilson Chu, Director of the Energies Global Strategic Business Unit at ARaymond, and Alex Li, General Manager of Western Europe (DG) at LONGi Solar, in attendance.
“This Memorandum of Understanding marks an important step in building a collaborative approach with LONGi. By combining our respective expertise, we aim to explore solutions that bring tangible value to solar and energy projects worldwide.”
— Wilson Chu, Director of the Energies Global Strategic Business Unit, ARaymond
“Solar projects increasingly depend on how well individual components work together as part of one system. This Memorandum of Understanding with ARaymond gives us the opportunity to explore how LONGi’s expertise in high-efficiency PV modules and battery energy storage can be combined with ARaymond’s fastening, grounding, and cable management capabilities. By looking at system integration, installation efficiency, and long-term reliability together, we aim to create practical value for customers and support the deployment of scalable solar and energy solutions across Europe and beyond.”
— Alex Li, General Manager of Western Europe, LONGi Solar
Leveraging complementary strengths across the value chain
By bringing together complementary positions across the solar value chain, ARaymond and LONGi Solar aim to identify opportunities to improve system integration, installation efficiency, and overall performance of solar and energy systems.
This collaboration could contribute to reducing installation time and costs while enhancing reliability, supporting customers developing projects across a wide range of applications.
This initiative aligns with ARaymond’s strategy to expand its presence in photovoltaics and accelerate its diversification into renewable energies. The company develops fastening and assembly solutions for solar applications worldwide across rooftop, ground-mounted, carport, and floating PV systems, with a focus on efficiency, reliability, and ease of installation.
In line with this ambition, ARaymond took further steps at Intersolar and ees Europe 2026, with the commercial launch of Neluma™, its floating PV solution, and the introduction of fluid-handling activities for battery energy storage—supporting its objective to increase non automotive revenues from 10% to 40% by 2040.
