JinkoSolar, a solar and energy storage company, has signed the largest ever supply agreement with ACWA Power, for its 3.8 GW N-type Tiger Neo panels for ACWA Power’s two projects 1,581 MWp Al KAHFAH and 2,257MWp AR RASS 2 in Saudi Arabia.
As per the firm, Tiger Neo solar modules are produced using N-type TOPCon technology and sophisticated manufacturing processes, offering industry-leading efficiency along with reduced degradation and temperature coefficient, enhanced bifacial factor, and unparalleled yield per watt to reduce system lifetime energy cost.
This landmark supply agreement validates the Tiger Neo’s performance, durability, and reliability advantage over conventional solar panels, as well as its competitiveness. “N-type TOPCon technology will help ensure our solar projects meet performance goals to provide clean, competitively priced energy for desalination, and hydrogen production as well as to our customers across the Middle East,” said Yunhe Lv, Executive VP of ACWA China. “We look forward to a much broader, higher level and strategic alliance with JinkoSolar in solar, energy storage and other renewable fields,” added he.
“ACWA continues to be the largest power and sea desalination company, and also a pioneer in green energy transition,” said Robin Li, GM of JinkoSolar MENA.
He further said, “We are excited to be expanding our MENA footprint and engaging in a more diversified and innovative cooperation with ACWA.”
