Flat High Efficiency Thin Film Solar Module Supporting Manufacturing Project Starts

5, the commencement ceremony of the supporting manufacturing project of Flat high-efficiency thin film solar modules was held in Wangdian Garden, Jiaxing National High-tech Zone, Zhejiang Province. The commencement of the project will open up a new track for the development of photovoltaic industry and add an important link to the construction of Xiuzhou photovoltaic 100 billion industrial cluster. Ni Huping, the leader of Jiaxing City, attended the ceremony and announced the commencement of construction. Xu Mingyang, the Secretary of Xiuzhou District Committee, delivered a speech. Wang Yongfa, Ma Xueteng, Shao Bofei, Zhang Meili, and Ruan Hongliang, the chairman of Flat Glass Group Co., Ltd., attended the ceremony. In his speech,

Xu Mingyang briefly introduced the basic situation of Xiuzhou's economic and social development since the beginning of this year. Xu Mingyang said that the project is not only a key step for Follett to extend downstream, but also will open up a new track and add new momentum for the development of photovoltaic industry. After the completion of the project, the foundation of Xiuzhou photovoltaic industry will be more solid, the content will be richer, the status will be more prominent, and the advantages will be more obvious. Xiuzhou will push forward the project at full speed, strive for early completion and early production of the project, and promote Flat to become bigger and stronger. It will make every effort to strengthen the chain, adhere to the principle of strengthening the chain to supplement the chain and gathering the chain in groups, fully release the radiation effect of leading enterprises, and promote the cluster of photovoltaic industry; Comprehensive and excellent service, adhere to normal communication and close contact, provide all-round and efficient active service, and promote a better business environment.

Ruan Hongliang briefly introduced the growth and development of enterprises and the investment and construction of projects. He said that since its establishment 25 years ago, Follett Group has had the privilege to participate in and witness the growth and development of the photovoltaic industry. This new project is a new starting point for the Group to open up a new chapter and a new layout for the future. It is committed to developing and producing new products to conform to the new trend of industrial development and meet the market demand for consumption. The project has received strong support from governments at all levels, and the good business environment and high-quality service guarantee have promoted the rapid implementation of the project. The Group will also persevere in innovation, contribute to the high-quality development of Xiuzhou and Jiaxing, and contribute to the sustainable development of green energy.

As the only "A + H" dual-listed company in the city, Flat Glass Group is the world's largest photovoltaic glass manufacturer with a market share of nearly 30%. The company continuously links external resources and markets, and establishes production bases in Vietnam, Anhui, Jiangsu and other places, which is a vivid practice of Xiuzhou's development of "sweet potato economy". Under the company's lead, Xiuzhou has introduced 10 billion-level leading enterprises such as Longji and Atlas to build the whole photovoltaic industry chain of "battery + photovoltaic glass + supporting products + components + energy storage + intelligent manufacturing + recycling", which has been selected as the core area of photovoltaic industry of the "415X" advanced manufacturing cluster in the province. It is steadily advancing towards "100 billion industrial clusters". At the end of February

2023, the supporting manufacturing project of Flat high-efficiency thin film solar modules was signed. As a wholly-owned subsidiary of Flat Glass Group, Flat Light Energy Co., Ltd. was incorporated. The project mainly develops and produces supporting products for high-efficiency thin film solar modules, which are applied to building integrated photovoltaic and photovoltaic power plants . The project is divided into two phases, with a total construction area of 346792 square meters.

In recent years, the photovoltaic new energy industry in Xiuzhou has achieved from scratch, from existence to excellence, and has made important contributions to high-quality development. Faced with the new opportunities contained in the "double carbon" tuyere, Xiuzhou has formed a photovoltaic new energy industry chain ecosphere integrating "industry leading enterprises + enterprise research institutes + upstream and downstream supporting enterprises of the industry chain", gathering more than 270 photovoltaic new energy related enterprises, and becoming the most innovative and dynamic new economic growth point. From January to June this year, Xiuzhou's photovoltaic new energy industry achieved an output value of 19.9 billion yuan, an increase of 51.4% over the same period last year.

As the core area of the first batch of provincial characteristic industrial clusters, Xiuzhou will continue to give full play to the basic advantages of the photovoltaic industry, strive to forge the long board of the industrial chain, focus on extending the downstream links of the industrial chain, and strive to break through 100 billion yuan in output value by 2025. To cultivate four enterprises with a scale of over 10 billion, three enterprises with a scale of over 5 billion, and five national champion enterprises, to build a leading domestic photovoltaic technology innovation platform, a provincial photovoltaic product testing center, and to build "China Photovoltaic Science and Technology City".

Editor's note:

On the afternoon of February 25, 2023, the signing ceremony of key projects in Wangdian Industrial Park of Jiaxing National High-tech Zone in Zhejiang Province in the first quarter of 2023 was held, and the 1GW thin film solar photovoltaic cell project of Flat was also signed on the same day. Flat 1G W thin film solar photovoltaic cell project is invested and constructed by Flat Glass Group Co., Ltd. The total investment of the project is about 3 billion yuan , and it is planned to invest in the construction of 1G W cadmium telluride thin film solar cell project , with an estimated annual output value of 3 billion yuan.
