The Qinghai ultra-high voltage demonstration plant is the first ground-mounted utility project in the world to install JinkoSolar’s Tiger panels, designed for 20.4 percent module efficiency. JinkoSolar’s Tiger series features a specially designed tiling ribbon that is said to improve reliability and efficiency, and outperform conventional panel yield in real-world conditions such as partial shade or elevated temperatures. JinkoSolar’s CEO, Kangping Chen, said: “We are constantly innovating and improving [our] products and I am proud to have the opportunity to demonstrate their effectiveness by installing them for the first time on a ground-mounted utility project. Our … tiling ribbon technology removes any gaps between the cells, improving reliability and efficiency.”

Themain equipment to be installed includes four SHS housingless stands followed by two six-pass wire rod blocks and, for larger sizes, two additional SHS stands. Through an advanced multi-strand slit- rolling system, rebars from 8mm to 22mmwill be rolled on two strands at finishing speeds of up to 45m per second.
