Once approved by the local development and reform committee, the plant will be built in Lingwu City in the Ningxia Hui Region of north China and connected to the state grid.
“We are very pleased to have this opportunity to cooperate with Lingwu City,” said Xiande Li, Chairman of JinkoSolar. “Our high quality pipeline of projects and stable cash flows from downstream business ensure the good return of our investors,” Li said.
Jinko operates largely in China, but recently gained certification for its modules to be sold in Japan and the UK, and supplied modules for a project in Chile.
