MEET THE TEAM

OUR HISTORY

Dr. Shawn Qu, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer founded Canadian Solar (NASDAQ: CSIQ) in 2001 in Canada, with a bold mission: to foster sustainable development and to create a better and cleaner earth for future generations by bringing electricity powered by the sun to millions of people worldwide.

Under Dr. Qu’s leadership, we have grown into one of the world’s largest solar photovoltaic products and energy solutions providers, as well as one of the largest solar power plant developers globally. We have cumulatively delivered over 90 GW of solar modules to thousands of customers in more than 160 countries, enough to meet the clean, green energy needs of approximately 21.2 million households. We have more than 18,500 dedicated employees to strive each day to make this mission a reality.

Customers choose us because we deliver the best-possible value. Our modules and system solutions combine superior quality with market-leading cost structures. And our solar projects consistently achieve the highest production values and returns on investment.

Canadian Solar (CSIQ) currently 25 GW of solar projects and 47 GWh of storage projects in pipeline, and is uniquely positioned to provide project development and complete turnkey solar solutions. By bundling services for the entire project life cycle—feasibility study, permitting, developing, engineering, procurement, construction, and maintenance—we can significantly reduce complexity and cost for industrial and commercial customers.

By the end of Q1 2024, Canadian Solar's majority-owned subsidiary CSI Solar Co., Ltd. intends to reach 50 GW of ingot, 50 GW of wafer, 60 GW of cell and 75 GW of module capacity. All the new capacity additions will be in the latest N-type technology, enabling us to better meet strong market demand and accelerate growth. These business plans will hep us further strengthen our long-term leadership position not just across our end markets but also throughout our supply chain positioning.
