The contract requires Yingli to supply about 168,000 solar panels by the end of 2014.
The panels will be installed in projects throughout the UK generating about 65,000 MWh of energy per year for approximately 21,800 homes in the UK.
Solarcentury chief operating officer Matthew Boulton said: "Solar is still the most popular form of renewable energy among the UK public, unsurprising since developing our solar capacity stands to benefit many people and businesses. Also, by diversifying our energy mix, we can help improve the UK’s energy security."
Yingli Green Energy chairman and chief executive officer Liansheng Miao said: "It is our pleasure to partner with Solarcentury, one of the most innovative companies in the UK and a long-term friend of Yingli.
"As we continue to see a strong solar market in the UK with a steady growth potential throughout 2020, we look forward to cooperate with this long-standing solar company on more exciting projects in the future."
Yingli Green Energy has recently secured a contract to supply 120MW of YGE 72 Cell solar panels for a 300MW project in France.
Located in Cestas in the south west of France, the solar park is expected to be connected to the grid in October 2015.
After completion, the 250ha project will be the largest solar power park in Europe.
