Chongqing Builds Massive 3GW Perovskite Solar Module Factory

Construction is advancing on a massive 3GW perovskite solar cell module production facility in Chongqing’s Jiangjin district. Led by the China Construction Second Engineering Bureau, the project recently reached a critical milestone with the completion of the factory’s metal roofing. Once fully operational by late 2026, the base is expected to generate an annual output value exceeding 6 billion yuan. This strategic development aims to bridge industrial gaps in Southwest China and establish Chongqing as a premier national hub for the photovoltaic industry.

Located within the Baisha Industrial Park, the new production base serves as a cornerstone for the regional photovoltaic supply chain. The facility is being developed by Wuxi Zhongneng Photovoltaic & Storage Co., Ltd., a firm established in late 2021 that specializes in the research, development, and manufacturing of high-efficiency perovskite solar cell modules. The project has now transitioned into the interior decoration and finishing phase following the successful installation of the main steel structure’s roof.

The project’s scope includes the production of both rigid and flexible perovskite solar cell modules, catering to a wide variety of renewable energy applications. Upon its scheduled delivery in October 2026, the site will represent one of the largest perovskite manufacturing hubs in Southwest China. By streamlining the local supply chain, the facility will bolster Chongqing’s efforts to create a comprehensive clean energy ecosystem and meet growing demands for sustainable infrastructure.

Wuxi Zhongneng’s expansion into Jiangjin aligns with its broader strategy to innovate across four primary sectors: flexible and rigid perovskite PV technology, space-based applications, and integrated sustainable energy solutions. The company’s focus on large-area module scalability is expected to play a vital role in reducing costs and improving the efficiency of next-generation solar energy systems, ultimately contributing to regional carbon neutrality goals and the global transition to clean energy.
