Building on the success of its Zhuhai and Yiwu bases, AIKO has officially launched its Jinan facility, combining ‘semiconductor-industry management,’ ‘Industry 4.0,’ and the concept of ‘100% green power’, the factory producing its first high-efficiency crystalline silicon solar module from its 10GW Phase I project and marking the operational debut of the advanced manufacturing base for the company’s N-Type ABC modules.
As a global leader in zero-carbon energy, AIKO designed the Jinan base as a zero-carbon ‘intelligent factory’, setting new standards for manufacturing with green and low-carbon principles embedded into every stage of production.
Through Industry 4.0 technologies, the Jinan facility achieves full digitalization and intelligence in its production workshops. The factory operates entirely on renewable electricity, reuses 90% of water, and recovers over 30% of waste heat, establishing itself as a model for sustainable manufacturing.
The base integrates cell and module production on a 1.5-kilometer-long line, enabling efficient manufacturing from silicon wafer to module. Semiconductor-industry factory design and flexible layouts boost unit-area capacity by 50%, while multi-storey construction minimizes the distance between utilities and equipment, reducing energy consumption and enhancing productivity.
