JA Solar to Supply Modules for 220 MW of Landmark Solar Projects in South Africa with JUWI Renewable Energies

JA Solar has signed two module supply agreements with JUWI Renewable Energies for solar power projects in South Africa totaling 220 MWac. The projects will serve major industrial users including Glencore, Sasol, and Air Liquide. Around 420,000 of JA Solar’s high-efficiency DeepBlue 4.0 Pro modules will be installed across the 100 MW Sonvanger Solar Plant and the 120 MW Paarde Valley PV2 project, slated to be fully operational by the end of 2026.

Once complete, the projects are expected to produce around 672,000 megawatt-hours of clean electricity annually, cutting carbon dioxide emissions by approximately 625,000 tons which is the same as removing over 130,000 cars from the road. “We’re pleased to support JUWI in delivering on these major solar initiatives, which represent a meaningful step forward in South Africa’s clean energy journey,” said Aiqing Yang, Executive President of JA Solar. “By supplying advanced, reliable module solutions tailored for tough environments, we help our partners achieve their long-term energy and environmental goals.”
