On September 17, JA Solar Japan held its seventh anniversary celebration in 
Tokyo, Japan. JA Solar's Senior Vice President Mr. Huang Xinming attended the 
event and delivered a speech to express the company's gratitude to local 
customers for their support since its inception and to share his views on the 
outlook for the development of renewable energy. Guests from over one hundred 
firms, including Hitachi, Panasonic, Marubeni and JGC, witnessed this important 
milestone in the company's history.

Japan has attached great importance to the development and application of 
renewable energy, especially solar energy. Compared to other markets, Japan has 
higher requirements for the quality and efficiency of solar products. In 2012, 
JA Solar established a branch in Tokyo, and was quickly recognized by the 
market for the company's excellent products and services, and the JA Solar 
brand has been well accepted by local customers. The company takes a leading 
position in shipments to Japan with nearly 10% share of the market. It has 
built solid relationships with hundreds of local business partners, and has a 
strong market penetration for its products, covering all 47 administrative 
regions of Japan. JA Solar is highly regarded as the most trusted photovoltaic 
brand.

JA Solar focuses on the R&D and production of high-efficiency solar PV products 
and launches a series of advanced products for the Japanese market. Last year, 
the company was granted a patent for its bifacial PERC technology in Japan, 
which is a manifestation of JA Solar's technological innovativeness and the 
recognition and protection for the IP rights in Japan. In February, the company 
showcased its 9BB half-cell mono PERC module at the PV EXPO 2019, which was 
positioned as an excellent choice for lowering LCOE and achieving grid parity. 
In July, JA Solar signed a Ga-doping patent licensing agreement with Shin-Etsu 
Chemical. The technology is expected to further improve the performance of JA 
Solar products, enabling the company to provide more reliable products to its 
customers.

Mr Jin Baofang, JA Solar's Chairman of Board of Directors, said, "JA Solar's 
achievement in the Japanese market is a result of our strong focus on 
high-quality products and services. We will continue to serve the Japanese 
market, providing our customers with high-quality products and services, and 
promoting the development of the photovoltaic industry in the country."
