Recently, JinkoSolar, a global leader in photovoltaic technology, successfully signed supply agreements totaling over 300MW for its high-efficiency Tiger Neo 3.0 PV modules with Uzbek clients including Arif, Power Sun, Darian Solar, and Deltron Energy. The Tiger Neo 3.0 module precisely addresses the climatic and environmental challenges faced by ground-mounted power plant projects in Central Asia through its high efficiency, high bifaciality, and lower temperature coefficient.
In Uzbekistan's predominant ground-mounted PV scenarios, the Tiger Neo 3.0's high bifacial efficiency advantage is maximized. The country's vast Gobi Desert and arid landscapes feature sandy surfaces that naturally reflect sunlight. Traditional monofacial modules or those with low bifacial efficiency often waste significant amounts of scattered and reflected light. The Tiger Neo 3.0 module, with its ultra-high bifacial power generation efficiency, not only efficiently captures intense direct sunlight but also fully absorbs ground-reflected diffuse light, converting previously neglected light energy into tangible electricity generation.
Simultaneously, Uzbekistan's vast desert terrain creates a demanding photovoltaic environment characterized by high ultraviolet radiation, intense direct sunlight, and frequent extreme temperatures—with surface temperatures often exceeding 50°C at midday in summer. Prolonged exposure to high-intensity UV radiation erodes module surfaces, while extreme heat causes significant efficiency degradation in conventional PV modules. This places exceptionally high demands on module weather resistance and power generation stability. The Tiger Neo 3.0 module, with its outstanding UV resistance and ultra-low temperature coefficient, emerges as the ideal solution for withstanding these harsh local conditions.
Tailored for Uzbekistan's temperate continental climate and unique Gobi Desert environment, the Tiger Neo 3.0 module achieves precise adaptation through multidimensional core advantages: Front-side power output reaches 670 watts with conversion efficiency of 24.8%; A bifacial ratio of 85±5% significantly boosts power generation gains for ground-mounted plants; Long-term reliability and low degradation performance, with first-year degradation below 1% and annual linear degradation not exceeding 0.35%, ensure sustained, stable, and efficient operation throughout the plant's entire lifecycle.
Furthermore, in large-scale ground-mounted power plants, back-contact cells feature a unique structure where both anodes and cathodes reside on the same side. To mitigate potential hot-spot risks, mainstream manufacturers typically incorporate numerous leakage pathways into their designs, which inevitably cause power generation variations. Compared to back-contact modules, which are susceptible to leakage issues and suffer increased power generation losses under low-light conditions, the Tiger Neo 3.0 modules’ stable output characteristics better align with the long-term, large-scale power generation demands of utility-scale solar plants, solidifying project profitability.
