Piper Jaffray raised its price target on ReneSola Ltd. (NYSE: SOL) from $25 to $40, following another strong earnings report from the company. The firm is reiterating their Buy rating.

Piper analyst Jesse Pichel thinks SOL should now be valued in line with tier one suppliers given its strong execution and ample polysilicon supply. He said, "We believe shares can head substantially higher on greater than expected production for 2008/9 on the heels of another polysilicon supply contract with a Western company. Last, the company has option value in its 3000MT polysilicon plant that should produce a modest 1200MT in 2009 per guidance. We believe this target is reasonable and is more conservative versus certain peers that claim 5000-7000MT of production in 2009 in the
first year of production."

Shares of SOL are up 9% currently to $23.66.
