China Electricity Construction Corp.'s (CEC) Hydropower Nine Bureau (Shanxi) said it has launched a tender for the centralized procurement of about 40,000 tons of fixed PV mounting frames for 2024-25.

Mingyang Photovoltaic, a unit of Mingyang Group, said it has started mass production of its first zero-busbar (0BB) HJT solar module at its Shaoguan plant. The 0BB-HJT modules use ultra-fine welding ribbons to reduce surface stress variation caused by changing temperatures, increasing contact points with fine grid lines to minimize micro-cracks and boost production yield. Mingyang Photovoltaic plans to ramp up output based on market demand. The 4 GW Shaoguan facility in Guangdong province required a total investment of CNY 1.9 billion.
