After the dispute with Tongwei Co., Ltd. (600438.SH), Maxeon sued a Chinese photovoltaic company for patent infringement this year.

On November 15, solar panel manufacturer Maxeon Solar Technologies (MAXN, hereinafter referred to as Maxeon) filed a patent infringement lawsuit in a German court against Chinese photovoltaic company AIKO (600732.SH) and its subsidiaries, accusing it of infringing the European patent for the solar cell’ s architecture with its patent number EP2297788B1.

At about 9 a.m. on November 16, AIKO issued an announcement stating that after multiple verifications by its intellectual property group and its cooperative European intellectual property law firm, it was confirmed that the two patented technologies are fundamentally different and there is no infringement of the patent.

AIKO said that it has not officially received the notice of response. If it is judged that the disclosure standards are met, the information will be disclosed in accordance with the relevant regulations of the Shanghai Stock Exchange and will actively respond to the appeal.
