JA Solar recently announced that it supplied 43.8MW bifacial double-glass 
modules for the Malaysia's first solar project that combines bifacial 
double-glass modules with trackers. The project is expected to generate 74 
million kWh of electricity per year once entering operation.

Invested by Halpro Engineering, a joint venture between a German developer, EPC 
Greencells Group and their local partner Majulia, the project belongs to 
Malaysia's second round Large-Scale Solar (LSS) program. Combining 
high-efficiency bifacial cell technology with strong double-glass structure, 
the bifacial double-glass module has the power of generating electricity from 
its backside, with power rating can reach more than 70% of that of the front 
side. The module is capable to effectively improve the returns of investments 
by enhancing  its power generation capacity, low irradiation performance and 
PID resist performance, even under harsh circumstances (such as desert, 
seaside, etc.) and extreme weather conditions (including high temperature, high 
humidity, etc.). Combining the high-efficiency module with the trackers, the 
project is expected to get even higher energy yield and more returns for the 
investor.

Jin Baofang, Chairman of the Board of Directors and CEO of JA Solar, said, 
"Having established a manufacturing base in Malaysia in 2015 and supplied 
modules for several large-scale projects in the local market, JA Solar has been 
actively increasing its presence in promoting new technologies to help local 
customers reduce LCOE and raise customers' returns. In the future, JA Solar 
will continue to promote the application of advanced technologies to push the 
development of the photovoltaic market in Malaysia and all other Southeast Asia 
countries."
