Hamburg, March 9, 2011

ProjectForum4t2 is going online with www.project-forum.biz – the first professional marketplace for PV project rights as well as existing systems

With the world’s first professional online marketplace for trading PV projects, ProjectForum4t2 will bring clarity and structure to the currently complicated market. This market presently is characterized by sometimes cumbersome project offerings as well as numerous middlemen. Market participants keep asking the same questions: Who has realizable projects? Who can really implement them? Is all information presented in a transparent manner? Is a particular seller and/or buyer really trustworthy?

Marketplace goes online
With the marketplace www.project-forum.biz ProjectForum4t2 eliminates these obstacles through a structured presentation, safe handling of data, and restricting access to data to actual and prospective buyers.
“ProjectForum4t2 focuses on each individual project. The presentation of relevant information and a comprehensive documentation database allow for a transparent overview,” says Dipl.-Ing. Karsten Kreissler, Founder and General Manager of ProjectForum4t2.» We bring serious developers and buyers of PV systems together very efficiently, independent of their country, language or other possible barriers.”

Secondary market for systems in operation
In addition to project rights, existing PV systems are traded on the marketplace www.project-forum.biz. This new marketplace allows owners of systems in operation for the first time to easily sell these systems to prospective buyers.

Phased activation of the marketplace
Project sellers and buyers can immediately register at www.project-forum.biz. However, from now through April 7, 2011, only project developers will have access to the marketplace to post their projects. Project buyers will have access to the marketplace during the second phase of implementation, starting on April 8, 2011.
