Xi’an, China, August 21, 2024 – On August 21, Fortune China officially announced the 2024 Fortune Tech 50 list, with LONGi Green Energy Technology Co., Ltd. (“LONGi”), the world’s leading solar power technology company, Selected for its outstanding achievements in technological innovation. , product development, intelligent manufacturing.
The Fortune Tech 50 list aims to identify Chinese-born technology companies that are making an impact on the world. These companies drive innovation, continuously invest in research and development, actively expand application scenarios, achieve remarkable results in the domestic market, and even lead global trends and are in the development of future technologies. making an important contribution.
Innovation is the soul of LONGi and the internal driving force for the continuous development of the solar power industry. As a member of China’s photovoltaic industry, LONGi has made systematic advances in monocrystalline silicon rods, wafers, cells and modules, contributing to the high-quality development of the industry.
Regarding wafers, the company-led project “Key technological innovations and applications of high-efficiency and low-cost manufacturing of monocrystalline silicon wafers for solar cells” won the second place in the National Science and Technology Progress Award. This is the first time since the establishment of this award in China’s solar power field that a private company has won the highest honor in the national science and technology field as the first completed unit and first completer. The newly developed LONGi TaiRay wafer has become a weather vane for wafer technology development, breaking the dilemma of nearly a decade of no breakthrough performance improvements in the monocrystalline silicon wafer field.
As for cells, the company has broken through multiple technical and process difficulties in PERC cells and BC cells. “Ultra-high-efficiency and low-cost back-contact crystalline silicon heterojunction solar cells” and “ultra-high-efficiency silicon-based tandem cells” led by LONGi’s R&D team have been selected as “Key Scientific and Technological Advancement Areas in 2023″ I did. “The field of solar power generation.” Since this year, LONGi has updated its own world records by 27.30% and 34.6%, respectively, and is now the “dual champion” of world records for monocrystalline silicon cells and crystalline silicon perovskite tandem cells. Since 2023, the company has focused on the upgrade and iteration of BC technology, forming a rich BC full scenario product matrix, and creating more value for customers through technological innovation and scenario satisfaction.
At the same time as achieving technological innovation, LONGi also actively promotes intelligent manufacturing innovation. In December 2023, LONGi’s Jiaxing production base was selected as a “lighthouse factory” by the World Economic Forum, which is also the first “lighthouse factory” in the global solar power industry. In this “Lighthouse Factory”, LONGi extensively adopted new technologies such as industrial internet, big data, artificial intelligence, and digital twins, and successfully implemented more than 30 digital use cases. The company has achieved the leap from “manufacturing” to “intelligent manufacturing” with the help of digital and intelligent means.
As a global solar power technology company, LONGi adheres to the concept of “pursuing development through innovation”, focuses on future industrial technology, and continues to lead efficient technology iteration and industrial transformation. The company has a national enterprise technology center and eight provincial enterprise technology centers, and has established a technology research and development team of more than 5,000 people. Focusing on clean energy technologies such as solar power generation and hydrogen energy, we have created an efficient research and development system and sufficient technological reserves to “create one generation, develop one generation, and leave one generation behind.” Masu. In the past five years, LONGi has accumulated R&D investment of more than 23.5 billion yuan. By the end of 2023, the company had accumulated 2,879 various certified patents.
For many years, from technology innovation, product innovation to intelligent manufacturing innovation, LONGi has been at the forefront of innovation in the solar power industry. In the future, the company will continue to adhere to independent research and development, continuously strengthen its core competitiveness, and continue to create value for customers around the world with more reliable and efficient products and services.
