SAN FRANCISCO, Mar 15, 2021 /PRNewswire/ JinkoSolar Holding Co., Ltd. (the Company or JinkoSolar ) (NYSE:JKS), one of the largest and most innovative solar module manufacturers in the world, today announced that it has been ranked Overall High Achiever in the 2020 PV Module Index Report ( PVMI 2020 ) published by the Renewable Energy Testing Center ( RETC ). JinkoSolar received this distinction for high performance across three essential indicator categories: reliability, performance, and quality. Seventeen manufacturers in total were evaluated for RETC s PVMI 2020 annual report which provides relevant industry recognized test methods, performance metrics and best practices for quality assurance and control.
Labor and resettlement programs targeting Uighur populations in China’s Xinjiang region have been linked with companies producing a significant portion of the world’s polysilicon, according to a forthcoming report that draws a connection between the solar industry and forced labor in the region.
The report, written by consultancy Horizon Advisory, points to “indicators of forced labor” from companies such as Jinko Solar and some of the largest polysilicon suppliers in the world, accounting for well over a third of worldwide capacity. Forced labor associated with an essential raw material used in manufacturing most solar panels, the authors write, implicates a significant swath of the entire industry.
