Industry Updates

The rapid growth of the PV industry in China has been the driver behind the development of high-efficiency solar cells including N-type bifacial, HJT and half-cut, with cost reduction and efficiency improvements having become the primary objectives for the entire industry.

KSTAR will exhibit at InterSolar South America 2023 between 29th and 31st August in Sao Paulo, showcasing its full portfolio of PV inverters and energy storage systems.

EPC activities for the project were undertaken by SEPCOIII, an affiliate of Power China, with the 3A independent plant, located in the eastern Saudi city of Jubail, becoming the Kingdom's first large-scale integrated water desalination project to use solar power as a supplementary power source.

JinkoSolar has delivered a solar plus ESS system to a microgrid project in Mozambique, where it will help overcome electricity shortages caused by inadequate utility access in the local community of Chipera, providing access to electricity in an area hitherto without network coverage.

LONGi has announced that it has joined forces with India's URON Energy to supply its high-efficiency Hi-MO series modules to the country's Diamond Bourse located in the Gujarati city of Surat, a significant sustainability milestone for what is considered to be the world's largest office building.

SOFAR has announced the signing of a contract for the supply of 100MW of its 255KTL-HV utility string inverters for Velan Infra solar plants in the Indian state of Tamil Nadu, with the commissioning of the entire project expected to be completed by November.

The first 210mm n-type i-TOPCon cells have been produced at Trina Solar’s net-zero park in Qinghai province, marking the transition of the 5GW cell capacity to mass production, a milestone for the company's integrated n-type technology layout, which incorporates the entire supply chain of ingot, wafer, cell and module. 

JinkoSolar has announced that it has delivered its SunGiga JKS-215KLAA-100PLAA liquid cooled C&I energy storage system to a 430kWh ESS project in China's Zhejiang province.

LONGi has announced the shipment of the first batch of 20MW of modules for a 1GW project in Uzbekistan, the milestone coinciding with the inauguration of the China Railway Express Xi’an to Tashkent freight service.

LONGi has announced the signing of a strategic framework agreement with leading Mexican renewable energy company Solarever for 300MW of high-efficiency distributed generation solar modules.
