JinkoSolar Powers New Zealand’s First Grid-Scale Solar Project

Share

Designed to perform in New Zealand’s cool and often cloudy climate, JinkoSolar’s TOPCon technology was key to the project’s success. Its high per-watt energy output in low-light conditions ensures strong performance during early mornings, late evenings, and overcast days. With a low temperature coefficient and high bifacial ratio that captures reflected light from natural landscapes, TOPCon delivers maximum energy yield and long-term reliability in the demanding environment—making it the ideal solution for this landmark solar project.

The deployment underscores JinkoSolar’s global leadership in advancing renewable energy infrastructure. This breakthrough in the New Zealand market reaffirms the JinkoSolar’s commitment to delivering reliable, high-performance solar solutions that accelerate sustainable energy transitions worldwide.

Michael Wang, General Manager of JinkoSolar Oceania, emphasized: “This landmark achievement demonstrates how high-performance solar technology enables rapid decarbonization. Our BDV modules delivered exceptional yield reliability throughout Northland's demanding climate conditions – a critical factor in completing New Zealand's largest solar farm within record time. We'll continue accelerating the Pacific region's clean energy transition through innovative partnerships.”
