SHANGHAI, Jan. 18, 2012 /PRNewswire-Asia-FirstCall/ -- JinkoSolar Holding Co., Ltd. ("JinkoSolar" or the "Company") (NYSE: JKS), a fast-growing, vertically integrated solar power product manufacturer based in China, recently announced that the 18 MW project developed by China Guangdong Nuclear Solar Energy Development Co., Ltd.(CGN-SEDC) is now connected to the grid. JinkoSolar provided all the modules for this project in Dunhuang, Gansu Province in west China.

Located in the solar base of China Guangdong Nuclear Power Company in Dunhuang, the solar power plant covers an area of 400,000 square meters and JinkoSolar provided all 76,000 modules for the installation.

With an annual average sunshine time of 3,362 hours, the city of Dunhuang is recognized by experts as a world-class solar-rich region.

Now providing more than 15 percent of Gansu's total capacity, JinkoSolar has effectively secured a place as one of the most significant solar power manufacturers in this vital region. The success of this project will undoubtedly spur the development of PV projects as well as the solar industry in western China.
