Construction has officially begun on a landmark 48MW solar project in Lopburi, Thailand, developed by Minebea Super Solar Power, a joint venture between Japanese precision giant MinebeaMitsumi and Thailand’s own Super Energy.
The project is part of a broader PV and BESS portfolio that includes this 48 MW / 60 MWh facility in Lopburi and a 104 MW / 129 MWh project in Bang Pa-in, Ayutthaya. Together, they form a flagship roadmap for MinebeaMitsumi’s operations in Thailand and represent one of Southeast Asia’s largest “direct power supply” industrial solar installations.
Selected under Japan’s 2025 Fiscal Year Joint Crediting Mechanism (JCM), the initiative serves as a model for regional decarbonization. Hanersun has been chosen as module supplier for the project, which will be fully equipped with the company’s flagship HITOUCH 6N 715W bifacial modules.
Built on advanced n-type technology, these modules are specifically engineered to perform in Thailand’s hot and humid climate. Featuring enhanced encapsulation and superior anti-PID performance, the HITOUCH 6N series ensures long-term reliability and stable power output.
At the groundbreaking ceremony, Hanersun VP Sunny Sun and Regional Sales Director Jason Liu joined representatives from MinebeaMitsumi and Super Energy to mark the start of construction.
Sun commented: “Thailand is a strategic cornerstone for Hanersun’s global expansion. Being selected for this JCM-supported project after a rigorous technical evaluation validates the solid strength of our n-type technology. We are fully committed to ensuring high-quality delivery and supporting MinebeaMitsumi in achieving energy autonomy and its ambitious carbon neutrality goals.”
MSSP VP-BD Ms. Suchanya Nanumchio added: “Hanersun has earned a stellar reputation in the Southeast Asian market, the environmental adaptability and high-performance metrics of its modules meeting our exacting standards for industrial operations. This 48MW project is a critical step in optimizing our energy structure, and we look forward to further collaboration in the green energy space.”
