JA Solar Co., Ltd., a world-leading manufacturer of high-performance 
photovoltaic products, announced that it supplied all 48.3MW PERC modules for 
BP Solar 1 PV Power Plant in Vietnam. This represents the country's first 
project that uses PERC modules. Additionally, it is an important step in 
driving the application of high-efficiency solar modules in the markets of 
Vietnam and other Southeast Asia areas, and is of great importance for the 
development of renewable energy in the region. 

Located in Ninh Thuan Province, the solar plant is developed and constructed by 
Bac Phuong Joint Stock Company (EPC Contractor), a well-known renewable energy 
company in Vietnam. With an installed capacity of 48.3MW, the plant is expected 
to generate 80 million kWh of electricity and reduce carbon dioxide emissions 
by 79,760 tons per year. JA Solar cooperated with Bac Phuong Joint Stock 
Company closely and completed the supply of modules and construction of the 
project well ahead of schedule. On January 20, 2019, the plant was successfully 
connected to the national grid of Vietnam and put into operation.  

The project is located in a tropical low-latitude coastal area. The harsh 
environment in the region (including damp heat, saline and alkali conditions 
and high wind) set stringent requirements for solar module quality. JA Solar's 
solar modules have passed rigorous long-term reliability and environmental 
adaptability tests, and have excellent resistance to PID attenuation, salt 
corrosion and wind pressure, offering a strong guarantee for ensuring the 
stability of the power plant system and optimizing the power generation.

Mr. Jin Baofang, Chairman and CEO of JA Solar, said, "JA Solar will continue to 
focus on technological innovation and product quality improvement to meet the 
diverse needs of our global customers and promote the development of renewable 
energy around the globe."
