Around 25,000 visitors are expected including many overseas buyers.

EXPO Solar will offer the best opportunity for sales and consulting among such exhibitions held this year in Asia.

EXPO Solar 2014 anticipates many buyers from emerging countries such as India, Jordan, Mexico, Saudi Arabia and the UAE as well as from Southeast Asia where photovoltaic power systems have been spawning lately along with buyers from more established markets such as China and America.
