- Globally respected for high quality, Chinese solar PV manufacturer, JA Solar, has announced plans to establish 6 GW of high-efficiency solar cells and 3 GW of high-efficiency solar panel manufacturing facility in a joint venture with the Oman Sohar Free Trade Zone.
- The roll out will be implemented in phases whose schedule will be adjusted based on ‘internal and external operating environment.’
“The investment and construction of this overseas production capacity project meets the needs of the company’s global development strategy, can enhance the overseas production capacity of high-efficiency products, better serve the international market, and enhance the company’s core competitiveness,” said JA Solar in a statement.
Last month, JA Solar announced that it signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) to establish two solar energy factories in collaboration with UAE-based Global South Utilities and JA Solar in Egypt. The initiative involves the creation of two facilities: one for manufacturing solar cells with a capacity of 2 gigawatts and another for producing solar panels with an equal capacity.
With continuous technological innovation, stable financial strengths, and a well-developed global sales and service network, JA Solar is widely recognised by domestic and international customers and has been listed in the “Fortune 500 China 500” and “Global Top 500 New Energy Enterprises” for multiple consecutive years.
Highly rated for performance and quality
JA Solar recently earned an outstanding five-star “VERY GOOD” rating for its DeepBlue 4.0 Pro 2465mm*1134mm (72-cell) module in the latest “PV Magazine Module Test.” This test, conducted in collaboration with CEA and its parent company Intertek, highlighted the module’s exceptional performance across a variety of assessments.
Notably, among all the bifacial TOPCon modules tested, the DeepBlue 4.0 Pro 2465mm*1134mm (72-cell) model was the first to undergo the UVID (Ultraviolet-Induced Degradation) test, highlighting JA Solar’s unshakeable confidence in the overall reliability of its products.
The PV Magazine Module Test, conducted jointly by Germany’s PV Magazine Group and CEA, along with its parent company Intertek, evaluates modules across several criteria, including visual inspection, EL image inspection, low irradiance levels, temperature coefficients, and PID (Potential-Induced Degradation) performance. With its rigorous evaluation system and diverse range of tests, the PV Magazine Module Test is highly regarded in both Asia and Europe, offering significant authority within the industry.
The DeepBlue 4.0 Pro module from JA Solar passed through a stringent testing process and stood out with high scores across all categories, ultimately earning the prestigious five-star rating, which reflects the strength of its n-type technology.
As JA Solar’s flagship n-type product, the DeepBlue 4.0 Pro 72-cell module offers a power output of up to 650W and an efficiency of 23.3%. It also boasts lower degradation, improved temperature coefficients, higher bifacial gains, and better weak light performance. This product is already widely used globally and has gained an excellent market reputation.
