IFC, a member of the World Bank Group, will offer loans of up to $60 million, and pick up stake worth up to $10 million in Canadian Solar.

Canadian Solar will utilize the funding for its module production facility in Vietnam and expanding solar cell and / or module production capacities in other emerging markets.
