“We extend a warm welcome to Trina Solar as it joins our growing family of entrepreneurial companies from China ,” said NYSE President & Co-COO Catherine R. Kinney. “We look forward to an outstanding and long-term partnership with Trina Solar, and to providing the company an excellent listing and trading venue and to also enhance its brand visibility with global investors.”

The initial public offering by Trina Solar followed several recent successes by Chinese private companies on the NYSE. In 2005, the NYSE listed Suntech Power Holdings Ltd. (NYSE: STP), the largest entrepreneurial company from China to list in the U.S., followed this year by China New Oriental (NYSE: EDU), Mindray Medical (NYSE: MR), and, earlier this week, American Oriental Bioengineering, Inc. (NYSE: AOB), a Chinese producer, marketer & distributor of plant-based pharmaceutical and nutraceutical products, which transferred from the American Stock Exchange on Monday, Dec. 18.

The listing by Trina Solar brings the total number of NYSE-listed companies from greater China to 33, representing a total global market capitalization of $849 billion. Trina Solar, which sells its products to customers worldwide, including in Europe , is the second solar energy company from China to list on NYSE, following Suntech Power Holdings Co.

All Chinese entrepreneurial companies that conducted their IPO on the NYSE have been extremely well received by investors.
