Photovoltaic Rush Accelerates: JinkoSolar Safeguards the Full Lifecycle of Power Plants

Date: April 10, 2025
The beginning of this year saw the release of the “Management Measures for the Development and Construction of Distributed Photovoltaic Power Generation” and the notice on “Deepening the Market-Oriented Reform of New Energy Grid Connection Prices to Promote High-Quality Development of New Energy” (Document No. 136 [2025], referred to as “Document 136”). These developments have reignited the photovoltaic rush that had been dormant for years, but unlike previous surges, this wave encompasses the entire downstream sector, including residential, commercial, and utility-scale installations, with a tight timeline and broader impact.
In particular, the distributed photovoltaic sector has experienced heightened uncertainty. Though policies have provided a transitional period for existing projects, the comprehensive market entry of new energy has intensified expectations regarding future uncertainties, causing nearly all distributed photovoltaic projects to stall during this rush. Amid this surge, several irrational phenomena have emerged in the market, alongside optimizations of certain technical requirements. Ensuring quality and quantity during this tumultuous period has become a common concern within the industry.

<h2>Optimizing the "Four Capabilities" Demand During the Rush</h2>
Since the issuance of the new distributed photovoltaic management measures, the rush for installations has commenced. With the release of Document 136, the requirements for distributed photovoltaic market entry have deepened, leading to widespread expectations of electricity price reductions and a rapid increase in project activity.
Simultaneously, there has been an optimization of technical indicators. National and provincial policies now require distributed photovoltaic projects to meet the "observable, measurable, adjustable, and controllable" (referred to as the "Four Capabilities") criteria, utilizing "group adjustment and control" technology to ensure the stable operation of the power grid.
Currently, commercial distributed photovoltaic projects in China typically require compliance with the "Four Capabilities" for 10kV grid-connected projects. However, some regions have mandated that each inverter undergo coordinated testing by designated units before being connected to the grid. This has resulted in considerable delays for inverters waiting for testing, while investors in the midst of the rush cannot afford to wait. Consequently, some areas have seen the emergence of "scalpers" who charge premium prices to expedite testing.
To address the "Four Capabilities" demand, the industry commonly opts to increase group adjustment and control devices (AGC/AVC). While this is not overly complex, traditional solutions face challenges with multi-device interaction and high costs, as well as issues related to installation, debugging, and data transmission time and accuracy. To overcome these challenges, JinkoSolar has optimized the "Four Capabilities" solution, providing a comprehensive package that includes data collection layers, communication networks, group adjustment and control terminals, and monitoring and management platforms.
JinkoSolar's group adjustment and control solution, specifically developed for commercial photovoltaic applications, offers easier installation and debugging, reduced costs, and faster control response times with high precision. This solution not only complies with the technical requirements for integrating photovoltaic power stations into the power system but also provides response times of less than 60 seconds and control accuracy exceeding 1%, meeting the needs for optimized allocation among multiple devices and adaptive strategies.
Commercial distributed photovoltaic group adjustment and control systems are mainly applied in large industrial parks and high-energy-consuming enterprises. By deploying these systems, the self-consumption rate of photovoltaic energy can be increased, leading to further savings on electricity costs. Additionally, combining energy storage with group adjustment and control can capitalize on peak and valley electricity pricing, shortening the investment payback period. Furthermore, from the grid perspective, this can reduce the risk of reverse overload in distribution networks and enhance the capacity for accommodating distributed photovoltaic energy.

<h2>JinkoSolar's Worry-Free Plan: Peace of Mind for Installation and Use</h2>
In addition to continuously optimizing the "Four Capabilities" solution to address industry pain points, JinkoSolar has launched the "Worry-Free Plan" in response to the current surge in distributed photovoltaic installations and potential quality issues. This plan is applicable to the 60-110K series of commercial models and focuses on "48-hour response + generation compensation" as its core service for owners. If a device failure occurs within the warranty period, JinkoSolar will resolve the issue within 48 hours, even replacing the entire system if necessary. If the problem is not resolved on time, starting from the 49th hour, compensation will be provided based on the generation output at a rate of 0.6 yuan per kilowatt-hour for the delayed hours, which can be used for monthly electricity bill settlement or as a deduction from payment, catering to various needs.
In the face of fierce competition during this installation rush, the "Worry-Free Plan" provides owners with enhanced assurance, ensuring that every kilowatt-hour of electricity is safeguarded, allowing for a more secure installation experience and usage.
The JinkoSolar G6-GC(80-150)K series is a new generation of three-phase string inverters designed specifically for commercial power plants. It features the industry's first "master-slave backflow prevention + three-phase imbalance linkage output control" technology, which intelligently distributes power among phases and is compatible with various grid-connected inverter products (optional).
The G6-GC(80-150)K series boasts an impressive efficiency of up to 98.7%, enabling MW-level high power tracking density, which allows for more precise solar energy capture and improved generation efficiency. Its AFCI feature significantly reduces the risk of fires on the DC side, while over-voltage reduction and leakage current suppression technologies minimize the issues of over-voltage disconnection and leakage tripping, ensuring stable system operation.

<h2>Early Grid Connection for Early Returns</h2>
While the installation rush is not unfamiliar within the photovoltaic industry and has become somewhat routine, associated quality issues and after-sales service are often overlooked. JinkoSolar actively responds to market demands, consistently ensuring the delivery of quality services to support the high-quality development of the industry.
