According to a report from PV Tech, several leading Chinese photovoltaic manufacturers have announced significant overseas module supply agreements since the beginning of March. The total contracted volume secured by Jinko Solar, Tongwei, Aiko, and LONGi Green exceeds 4.67 gigawatts across Europe, Australia, the Middle East, and Southeast Asia.
Europe represents the core market, accounting for just over half of the total contracted volume. Australia constitutes a significant portion, with the Asia-Pacific and Middle East regions making up the remainder. Jinko Solar’s performance was particularly notable, securing orders in multiple countries with a total volume of over 2,371 megawatts in March alone. A major component of this was a two-gigawatt supply deal with an Australian group for a specific module series.
Tongwei secured a combined 500-megawatt module contract with two Italian partners early in the month, followed by a one-gigawatt agreement with Poland’s largest PV distributor. LONGi Green strengthened its position in Europe, winning orders in the Netherlands and the United Kingdom after renewing a large framework supply deal in February. Aiko secured a 300-megawatt module order in the Middle East and Africa region.
This wave of agreements represents a shift toward long-term, large-scale partnerships that span the full value chain, from module supply and power plant construction to energy storage integration and operational services. This evolution marks a transition for these enterprises from equipment suppliers to comprehensive global new energy solutions providers. The partnership between Jinko Solar and its Australian partner, for instance, has involved over one gigawatt of shipments in the past three years.
Other industry leaders are also advancing. A subsidiary of Trina Solar secured a major smart solar tracking system order in Spain, while the company’s energy storage business has seen rapid growth, with European bookings for a specific year surpassing a specified capacity. Canadian Solar signed a substantial energy storage system supply agreement with a major utility in the United States for data center grid support, with shipments scheduled for completion by a future year.
Industry analysis suggests the photovoltaic sector is on a trajectory of steady acceleration with increasing concentration among top players, driven by global carbon neutrality goals and a steady decline in the levelized cost of electricity. Gigawatt-scale orders require significant production capacity, technology, capital, and overseas operational capabilities, which favors leading manufacturers and may lead to greater market differentiation and healthier industry development.
The Chinese photovoltaic industry now holds a dominant share of global manufacturing capacity, with independent control of key technologies across the entire value chain. Leading companies are accelerating overseas capacity expansion by establishing localized production bases and upgrading their global models with overseas research and service centers to provide full-lifecycle services.
