PR Newswire

GUELPH, Ontario, April 14, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Canadian Solar Inc.  (NASDAQ: CSIQ), today issued the following comment:

Canadian Solar is aware that Oakland-based Solaria Corporation ("Solaria") recently filed a complaint against Canadian Solar Inc. and Canadian Solar (USA) Inc. (collectively, "Canadian Solar" or the "Company") for patent infringement in the Northern District of California, citing a portion of the process for making Canadian Solar's shingled-cell solar modules (HiDM High Density Mono Perc Modules).  Canadian Solar's many other products are not cited in the complaint.  Canadian Solar believes that the claims in Solaria's complaint are meritless and unfounded.  Canadian Solar is working closely with its legal counsel and will vigorously defend against the claims made by Solaria.
