JinkoSolar Recognized in 2026 Fortune China Technology 50

JinkoSolar has made headlines by securing a spot in the prestigious 2026 Fortune China Technology 50 list, underscoring its reputation as a global leader in photovoltaic (PV) and energy storage solutions (ESS). This recognition is attributed to the remarkable achievements in technological innovation, research and development (R&D) capabilities, and significant performance milestones that JinkoSolar has consistently delivered over the years.

As an established name in the solar industry, JinkoSolar is not just a participant; it is a pioneer. The company holds an impressive portfolio of over 5,700 patents worldwide, with more than 3,500 of them authorized. This includes a substantial number of patents focused on N-type TOPCon technology, a cutting-edge approach that has positioned JinkoSolar at the forefront of PV technology advancements. The recent advancements in its N-type TOPCon perovskite tandem cell technology have raised the bar, achieving a remarkable conversion efficiency of 34.82%, marking a new world record in the solar sector, a notable feat that JinkoSolar has accomplished for the 33rd time. By innovatively integrating perovskite and TOPCon cell technologies, JinkoSolar is driving both efficiency and stability in solar cells.

However, the company does not stop at obtaining laboratory data; it actively translates these findings into real-world applications. JinkoSolar's team is dedicated to enhancing production processes, allowing them to push the limits of mass production efficiency while adapting to various operational scenarios. The latest iteration in JinkoSolar’s product line, the Tiger Neo 5.0 module, has achieved an impressive power output of 700W while retaining the same dimensions. It boasts a module efficiency of 25.91%, a significant leap in performance.

In line with its strategic vision, JinkoSolar has outlined a robust roadmap focused on efficiency improvements over the next five years. The goal for the Tiger Neo series is set to reach a theoretical efficiency limit of 28.7% for TOPCon crystalline silicon cells. This ambition is not just a number; it represents JinkoSolar's commitment to pushing the boundaries of solar technology.

Globally, JinkoSolar's module shipments have surpassed 400GW, solidifying its standing as the top supplier in global module shipments—a title it has reclaimed seven times. In the first quarter of 2026 alone, the Tiger Neo series reached a significant milestone of 240GW, making it the best-selling module in the industry. With projections set at 75-85GW for the year 2026, it is anticipated that total shipments of the Tiger Neo series will exceed 300GW by the end of the year.

With 33 world records to its name, including advancements achieved through the Tiger Neo 5.0 upgrades and a staggering 400GW in global module shipments, JinkoSolar continues to redefine the standards of PV technology. The company's unyielding commitment to research and development, along with its prowess in mass production, is not only reshaping the photovoltaic landscape but is also contributing to the ever-evolving narrative of green energy worldwide.
