SHANGHAI, Dec. 28, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- JinkoSolar Holding
Co., Ltd. ("JinkoSolar" or "Company") (NYSE code: JKS), a reputable solar module manufacturer in
the world, today announced its
partnership with Schneider Electric
to donate a 55kW off-grid solar project in Abu Redis, South Sinai, Egypt.
The remote village called ABU GHURAQD is located about 30 km
away from Abu Redis, which comprises
of 35 families, a mosque, a school,
a small medical center and three farms. The total connected power
load includes 15kW residential load and two 25kW irrigation pumps.
Prior to completion of the project, the only electricity source of
the village was three 30 kW
diesel generators supplying the village with electricity for merely
8 hours per day, which could not sufficiently meet the power load demand. Additionally, the noise and air pollution
caused by diesel generators were another issue for local
residents.
The project has been successfully completed and involved several challenges including
governmental approvals and permissions, material security and
transportation, as well as operation and maintenance
responsibility. The completed off-grid solar power system covers
power load for the village for 20 hours per day, significantly
improving the life quality of the local residents. Reduced
operation time of diesel generators is also helpful for environment
protection.
"We're pleased to form a strong partnership with Schneider
Electric to deliver this meaningful project. At JinkoSolar, we
believe that access to energy is a fundamental human right, and
this project is directly in line with that," said Dany
Qian, VP of JinkoSolar. "In addition to the contribution to
the effective and efficient operation of renewable energy
facilities worldwide by providing products and solutions that are
highly reliable and offer a good return on investment, JinkoSolar
will strive to serve as a responsible corporate citizen with CSR
initiatives centered on environmental awareness and clean energy
accessibility to all."
