Recently, companies such as Jinko Solar, Tongwei, Astronergy, and Golden Solar have continued to accelerate their overseas expansion. Relying on their new-generation high-efficiency module technologies, they have successively secured photovoltaic (PV) module orders in Italy, Japan, Algeria, and Germany.
Jinko Solar Signs 117.18MW Module Order in Italy
Recently, Jinko Solar officially signed a supply agreement with an Italian customer for a large-scale ground-mounted PV power plant project with a total capacity of 117.18MW. The project will exclusively utilize Jinko Solar's latest generation of high-efficiency Tiger Neo 3.0 modules.
Tailored to Italy's limited land resources and its environmental characteristics of high temperatures and intense irradiation during the summer, these modules can not only maintain stable power generation output under extreme climates but also save approximately 8% to 10% on system costs—including land, mounting structures, and cables—under the same installed capacity. This ultimately enhances overall power generation and return on investment.
As of now, Jinko Solar's cumulative global shipments of PV modules have exceeded 400GW.
Tongwei Signs Cooperative Framework Agreement with GBP Corporation
Recently, Tongwei and Japan's GBP Corporation officially signed a cooperative framework agreement. The two parties will engage in deeper communication and collaboration focusing on the Japanese market, exploring diverse application scenarios for high-efficiency PV products in the region.
This partnership focuses on the practical application of Tongwei's TNC 3.0 modules across diversified scenarios in Japan. Addressing Japan's limited available space and complex climate characteristics, such as frequent typhoons and snowfall, the TNC 3.0 modules, by increasing single-module power output, can save approximately 1.74% on the supporting costs of the entire system, including mounting structures and cables.
Astronergy Supplies Modules for 780MW PV Project
Recently, the 780MW PV project in Algeria, for which Astronergy is supplying all the PV modules, has entered the module installation phase.
It is reported that the 780MW Algerian PV project encompasses five major solar power plants: Abadla (80MW), Batemete (220MW), Gueltet Sidi Saad (200MW), Douar El Maa (200MW), and Ouled Djellal (80MW). Covering a total area of 440 hectares, the project is expected to achieve full-capacity grid connection and power generation by October 2026.
The ASTRO N5 series modules utilized in the project feature Astronergy's self-developed N-type TOPCon cell technology, combined with designs such as SMBB (Super Multi-Busbar) and gapless film technology. They possess higher power output, excellent anti-degradation performance, and robust weather resistance in extreme environments, providing a solid guarantee for long-term stable operation amid the extreme temperature differences and sandstorms of the desert.
Including the previously supplied Biskra 220MW project, Astronergy has cumulatively supplied 1000MW for Algeria's photovoltaic construction initiatives.
132MW German Project Supplied by Golden Solar Officially Connected to the Grid
Recently, the 70MW Phase II project of the JS Solar Power Plant in Groß Godem, Germany, supplied with modules by Golden Solar, was officially connected to the grid to generate power. Within this energy park, which has a total installed capacity of 157MW, Golden Solar has accumulated a total of 132MW in supply orders, providing high-efficiency Heterojunction (HJT) modules.
The supplied JGDN132-0BB HJT bifacial double-glass modules boast a maximum power exceeding 730W and a mass production efficiency reaching 23.5%. This batch of modules integrates 0BB (zero busbar), silver-coated copper paste, and wafer thinning technologies, and utilizes a light-converting film encapsulation process. This combination of technologies effectively reduces silver consumption and line resistance, while simultaneously enhancing the modules' power generation response capacity under complex climate conditions such as low light, as well as their long-term operational reliability.
