SHANGHAI, Dec. 7, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- JinkoSolar Holding
Co., Ltd. ("JinkoSolar" or "Company"), (NYSE code:JKS) the world's
reputable solar module manufacturers, today joined 49 major global
businesses with total revenue of US$1.3
trillion in signing an open letter urging governments to
increase collaboration and step up the fight against climate
change.
Leaders from the Forum's Alliance of Climate Action CEOs are
committed to using their positions to help meet the Paris Climate
Agreement goals. Thirty of the companies that signed the open
letter reduced their emissions by 9% (more than 47 million metric
tonnes in absolute terms) between 2015 and 2016, the equivalent of
taking ten million cars off the road for one year.
The open letter was signed ahead of the UNFCCC climate
conference in Katowice, Poland
where government leaders met this week to review progress towards
delivering on the goals set in 2015.
Alliance leaders call for greater public-private cooperation to
accelerate effective carbon pricing mechanisms and policies to
incentivize low-carbon investment and drive demand for
carbon-reduction solutions. They also highlight the business case
for cutting emissions to generate wider support in the private
sector.
JinkoSolar announced its unaudited financial results for the
third quarter ended September 30,
2018. Total solar module shipments hit JinkoSolar's record
high of 2,953 MW, an increase of 5.7% sequentially and 24.4%
year-over-year. Total revenues were RMB6.69
billion (US$974.8 million), an
increase of 10.5% from the second quarter of 2018 and an increase
of 4.3% from the third quarter of 2017. For the full year 2018, the
Company estimates total solar module shipments to be in the range
of 11.5 GW to 11.8 GW.
"This is one of the last chances we have to reverse course and
we should act now before it's too late, especially when grid parity
is just around the corner," commented Mr. Kangping Chen, Chief Executive Officer of
JinkoSolar.
