BEIJING<\/span><\/span>, Jan. 27, 2025<\/span><\/span> \/PRNewswire\/ — Recently, Colombian President\u00a0Gustavo Petro attended a ceremony at a refinery near Cartagena, where he personally signed a JA Solar module to commemorate the successful completion of a groundbreaking PV project. This marks the first PV power plant built at an oil refinery across Latin America<\/span>, a signature initiative supporting President Petro’s renewable energy development agenda.<\/p>\n

JA Solar exclusively supplied the PV modules for this 23MW project, constructed by PowerChina. The installation, located at the Cartagena Refinery of Colombian Petroleum Company (Ecopetrol), stands as a pioneering example of integrating renewable energy into traditional industrial settings. Ecopetrol’s CEO, Ricardo Roa<\/span>, hailed the project as “a milestone in replacing conventional oil and gas with clean energy solutions.”<\/p>\n

At the inauguration, President Petro praised the project’s role in reshaping Colombia’s<\/span> energy landscape. Calling it a “milestone with far-reaching implications,” he expressed hope for expanding similar initiatives nationwide. Petro also extended his gratitude to JA Solar and other Chinese enterprises for introducing advanced technology and high-quality products to Colombia<\/span>, fostering a collaborative approach to energy transition.<\/p>\n

The completion of this landmark project underscores JA Solar’s unwavering dedication to advancing renewable energy across Latin America<\/span>. The company has achieved significant milestones in several key markets in this region.<\/p>\n

In 2023, JA Solar partnered with Solatio, one of Brazil’s<\/span> largest PV developers, to supply 1.2GW of modules for the Cassiol\u00e2ndia and Parana\u00edba PV Power Stations in Mato Grosso<\/span> do Sul, contributing to over 4GW across seven Solatio projects. In Chile<\/span>, JA Solar exclusively powered the 480MW CEME1 PV Power Station, the country’s largest single-unit PV project, operational since 2024 and accounting for 10% of Chile’s<\/span> renewable energy capacity.<\/p>\n

In 2024, EUPD Research awarded JA Solar the titles of “Top Brand PV Latin America” and “Top Brand PV” in Brazil<\/span>, Chile<\/span>, Colombia<\/span>, and Mexico<\/span>, highlighting the company’s growing market leadership and customer trust. “Building on this success, JA Solar remains fully committed to driving Latin America’s<\/span> renewable energy transition through technological innovation and market excellence,” said Aiqing Yang<\/span>, Executive President of JA Solar. “By leveraging our industry-leading products and expertise, we aim to continue playing a pivotal role in advancing global carbon neutrality and fostering a sustainable future.”<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
