Yingli Announces 100MW Top Runner Solar Power Project in China

The project will consist of Yingli Panda bifacial panels spread over a two kilometre square area

Yingli Green Energy Holding Company Limited, one of the world’s leading solar panel manufacturers has announced a 100 MW solar power project in the Inner Mongolia region of China.

The project named Top Runner is located in Wuhai City and will consist of Yingli Panda bifacial panels spread over a two kilometre square area. It is expected to begin operations in June next year. The project is also expected to offset the emission of nearly 60.3 tons of dust, 13.4 tons of carbon and reduce the discharge of 1.8 tons of cinder annually after it begins its operations. It is of great significance to energy pressure relief, environment improvement and climate conservation.

Yingli chairman and chief executive Liansheng Miao said, “We are glad to participate in “Top Runner” program again with our reliable and high efficient products. Data shows that, since the grid-connection of the Datong 50 MW ‘Top Runner’ project, which utilized PANDA Bifacial panels, its monthly energy yield is up to approximately 17% higher than typical multi-crystalline solar plants. We believe that this project will be another sample of Yingli’s efforts in technological innovations to increase the efficiency and reduce the cost of solar power generation,” Miao added.
