Read MoreHide Full Article
JinkoSolar Holding Co., Ltd. (JKS - Free Report) recently revealed that its subsidiary, Jinko Solar Co. (Jiangxi Jinko), Ltd, inked an agreement with three counterparties in China for the development of the monocrystalline silicon pull rod project. This should strengthen JinkoSolar’s in-house production capabilities of monocrystalline silicon pull rods amid the rising solar demand globally.
Details of the Agreement
Jiangxi Jinko clinched a project investment cooperation framework agreement with the Qinghai Provincial Department of Industry and Information Technology, the Xining Municipal Government, and the Xining Economic and Technological Development Zone Management Committee (the Counterparties) for the development of the aforementioned project.
Jiangxi Jinko will construct silicon pull rod production lines in Xining city, which boast a total annual production capacity of 30 gigawatts.
Jiangxi Jinko intends to develop the production lines in two phases, expecting to commence the construction of the first phase in April 2022 and the second phase during the 2023-2024 period.
What’s Favoring JinkoSolar?
Due to its usage in solar panels, the monocrystalline silicon pull rod enjoys huge demand in the solar market. Thus, the aforementioned agreement will not only enhance the production efficiency of JinkoSolar but also provide an edge to the company in the global solar market and further stimulate its growth as nations are rapidly transitioning to renewable sources of energy.
In this context, it is imperative to mention that the global solar energy market is projected to witness a CAGR of 13.8% over the 2022-2027 period, per the report from Mordor Intelligence.
Considering bright growth prospects in the global solar market, JKS’ monocrystalline silicon rod production facility enhances the company’s prospects to capitalize on the increased demand and growth trend. This, in turn, is likely to boost its top line over the long haul.
