With More Global Expansion, Qn-SOLAR Achieves 4.5GW Global Sales

Chinese solar module manufacturer Qn-SOLAR achieved significant growth in 2023, surpassing 4.5 GW of global sales. The company expanded its market reach from Europe and Brazil to a global scale, including Europe, the Middle East, Asia-Pacific, North America, and South America. Qn-SOLAR has optimized its localization strategy by forming localized teams to support business expansion and cater to diverse customer needs.

Qn-SOLAR started its operations in 2014. It launched its global solar PV business in 2022 and soon expanded its business globally in several countries with the supply. Based in Shanghai, China, it has six solar manufacturing bases in China. The company manufactures solar cells and solar modules. Not only this, the firm also has its EPC arms, which help install solar and even wind projects. In 2020, the firm’s EPC arm began cooperating with state-owned enterprises to build wind power plants in the country. 

Bolstered by the growth of renewable energy companies, solar PV makers have planned to diversify their portfolio in the days to come. 

“We are incredibly proud of our achievements thus far and have the utmost confidence in our team’s capabilities as we continue to drive Qn-SOLAR’s growth. In the future, our business will be divided into four key sectors: PV manufacturing and renewable energy power plant investments, energy storage investments, hydrogen energy, and green power supply. Moreover, we are committed to responding to the global call for zero carbon emissions and actively contributing to a sustainable future,” said Stephen Cai, Chairman and Co-founder of Qn-SOLAR.
