-- JinkoSolar, a fast-growing, vertically integrated solar
power product manufacturer based in China, and Premier Power, a global leader in
the development, design, engineering and construction of solar
power systems for commercial, government and utility markets

Climate Change Business Journal® (CCBJ) award for a joint solar
power installation at The Dependable Companies' Los Angeles headquarters. CCBJ is a business

"CCBJ recognized a number of innovative projects that either
broke ground or saw their way to completion in 2011 in wind, energy
storage, carbon capture & storage and adaptation," said

Business Journal.
JinkoSolar and Premier Power were recognized for an installation

The Dependable Companies – a logistics service company providing
trucking, warehousing, freight forwarding and airfreight services.
The 1.2 MW system used 5,292 JinkoSolar modules to cover
approximately 300,000 square feet of The Dependable Companies'
building, making it the largest solar PV system installed on an
industrial high-rise building anywhere in the world.
"We are honored to be recognized by CCBJ with this prestigious
award," said Arturo Herrero, Chief
Marketing Officer for JinkoSolar. "We were grateful to have the
opportunity to work with Dependable, a company with such a
long-standing reputation for quality and dependability."
"As the EPC contractor for this installation, we worked closely
with both JinkoSolar and Dependable to design and install a system
that will help Dependable meet its sustainability goals. We are
pleased to see this ground-breaking project recognized with a CCBJ
award," said Miguel De Anguin,
President of Premier Power.
