JA Solar secures order for 257 MW solar PV project in Vietam

JA Solar Holdings Co., Ltd., announced that it entered into an agreement with Shanxi Electric Power Engineering Co. Ltd (SEPEC), a subsidiary of China Energy Engineering Group, to supply high-efficiency mono PERC modules for a 257 MW project in Phu Yen, Vietnam. The project is contracted by SEPEC and developed by B. GRIMM.

With growing energy demand, limited domestic fossil fuel reserves and abundant solar sources, Vietnam is well-positioned to develop and grow its PV industry. However, the country is located in a region under extreme environmental conditions of year-round high temperature and high humidity.
