Welcome to Intertek CEA
Intertek CEA (formerly Clean Energy Associates) helps buyers and long-term owners of solar and energy storage equipment buy the right products and ensure they are properly manufactured and installed. The rapid growth of the clean energy industry is exhilarating but the explosion of new technologies, new companies, new factories, new markets, and new business models can be hard to stay on top of and brings new risks.
From our US headquarters and our Asian base in Shanghai, Intertek CEA provides our clients with investment confidence as we allow them to get a "peek behind the curtain" to understand what is really happening upstream in supply chains and production facilities and downstream in project design and execution. Intertek CEA's global team has helped our diverse customer base of project developers, EPCs, IPP's, and financial institutions understand industry trends and market dynamics, select the best suppliers, negotiate the best contracts, carefully audit production processes, test equipment in the field, and perform technical and acquisition due diligence.
Our experience executing projects across the globe, including work in over 350 production facilities, is invaluable to our clients as they navigate the ever-changing and hyper-competitive landscape of clean energy.
Intertek CEA is a subsidiary of Intertek Group plc, a FTSE listed company based in London, with 1,000 test labs and 44,000 professionals working in 100+ countries. Learn more at www.intertek.com.
