LONGi has announced the opening of its HPBC 2.0 production line at its ‘Lighthouse’ factory at the company’s Jiaxing base.

According to LONGi planning, HPBC2.0 production capacity will be expanded to 50GW by the end of 2025, with Jiaxing’s capacity remaining above 20GW.

The site has assumed an increasingly high profile with the large-scale launch of Hi-MO X10 modules and the factory responsible for the crucial task of ensuring a high-quality supply of product.
Xie Shundong, head of the second phase of the Jiaxing base, explained that LONGi has three bases in Jiaxing, which mainly produce HPBC 2.0 modules. By the end of 2025, the capacity for these will reach 50GW, with the Jiaxing base delivering at least 40% of this.
