JA Solar Supplies Modules for MENA’s Largest Single-Rooftop Solar Project

To date, this plant, which uses JA Solar’s modules, represents the largest single-rooftop solar project in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region.

Shanghai-based high-performance solar power products maker JA Solar Holdings has supplied 3.2 MW of mono PERC modules for Aramex’s solar plant in Dubai, United Arab Emirates (UAE).

To date, this plant, which uses JA Solar’s modules, represents the largest single-rooftop solar project in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region.

Located in Dubai Logistics City, the rooftop project was constructed on a turnkey basis by IMG Solar FZE, a subsidiary of Izzat Marji Group in Jordan.

Further, the strong focus on excellent quality and pace resulted in the successful completion of the project.

Moreover, the rooftop solar project is expected to generate 5 million kWh of electricity per year, accounting for 60 percent of the electricity needs of Aramex’s facility, and to reduce carbon dioxide emissions by 3,000 tons annually.

JA Solar supplied all of the mono PERC modules used in the project. The company is the core patent holder of PERC technology, and its PERC products were designed to withstand the climate in Dubai, which is known for hot temperatures, intense ultraviolet radiation, high winds and sandstorms.

These high-performance modules can also resist high temperature and the abrasion of wind and sand, have higher reliability and power generation efficiency, and provide a solid guarantee for maximizing the power generation out of the system.

Commenting on the development, JA Solar, Vice President, Cao Bo said, “We are committed to the research and development of mass-produced, high-efficiency solar modules. We will continue to provide customers with high-quality products and services and promote the healthy and sustainable development of the photovoltaic industry.”
