BEIJING, June 15, 2017 /CNW/ -- JA Solar Holdings
Co., Ltd. (JASO) ("JA Solar"), one of the world's largest solar
products manufacturers, today announced that it supplied modules
for the world's largest floating solar power plant.
The 40 MW floating PV solar system
is installed in a former flooded coal mining region in
Huainan City, Anhui province,
China. The solar project was
connected in May 2017, and has the
capacity to provide most of the light and air conditioning to a
nearby city.The mono double-glass modules used in the project were
all manufactured by JA Solar.
JA Solar's modules are ideal for this type of
project. The modules have passed long-term reliability
and environmental endurance tests. The excellent anti-PID
performance and resistance against corrosion guarantee performance
despite the humidity inherent in a floating array. Moreover, the
12-year warranty on materials and workmanship and the 30-year
linear power warranty for the double-glass modules ensure that
customers will enjoy a steady financial return.
Floating PV is an exciting new emerging market, with the
potential for rapid growth. Demand is expanding for floating PV,
especially on islands, because the cost of water surface is
generally lower than the cost of land. In addition, the evaporative
cooling effect of water helps to reduce module temperature,
which promotes module efficiency and prevents
degradation.
JA Solar Chairman and CEO Mr. Baofang Jin commented: "We are excited by the
opportunity to contribute to such a prominent project. JA will
continue its efforts to develop, innovative and improve product
technology, which will enable us to participate in similar
pioneering solar projects."
