JinkoSolar Becomes First PV Company to Pass Anti PID Test by TUV-SUD at 85 Degrees Celsius

JinkoSolar Holding Co., Ltd. ("JinkoSolar" or the "Company") (NYSE: JKS), a leading global solar power product manufacturer, today announced that the Company's polycrystalline modules passed PID test at 85 degrees celsius/85% relative humidity, following the success of passing potential induced degradation (PID) test at 65 degrees celsius weeks ago. The first company to pass both forward and reverse bias voltage tests under 85 degrees celsius/85% relative humidity, JinkoSolar was awarded the "Anti-PID" certificate at this condition by TUV-SUD.

During testing period, solar modules were exposed to 1,000 volts of bias voltage under the condition of 85 degrees celsius/85% relative humidity. The maximum degradation of power output between initial and final measurement was required not to exceed 5%. The tested Jinko modules successfully passed the stringent requirements set by TUV-SUD.

"85 degrees celsius temperature /85% relative humidity is the harshest known condition of PID test. Passing anti-PID test in this extreme environment solidly demonstrates the high quality of our selected base materials and encapsulation components, and our strict quality control of each production process. Also, our consistent investment in R&D contributes to our success in PID tests and ensures the stable output of JinkoSolar's PV systems over a 25+ year life time," said Kangping Chen, CEO of JinkoSolar.

"PID is a phenomena that imposes the biggest negative effects on power output of solar plants. It is a matter of great influence for buyers and investors since basic TUV certificates cannot meet their increasingly demanding and professional requirements," commented by Mr. Hailiang Xu, manager of PV Business Unit of TUV-SUD. "We are very pleased to see this achievement made by JinkoSolar. It assures us of the increasing awareness of Chinese solar manufactures to pursue top quality of their products. TUV-SUD will continue to roll out similar challenging programs, which will help buyers identify the best suppliers and solar manufacturers gain stronger brand recognition in the market. "
