The recognition of JA Solar’s Fengxian and Yangzhou bases highlights the company’s deep integration of sustainable practices throughout its operations. JA Solar has prioritized policies that focus on biodiversity, carbon emissions management, regulatory compliance, and circular economy principles to enhance the sustainability of its entire product lifecycle. Following SSI’s rigorous audit process, both manufacturing bases demonstrated full alignment with the initiative’s stringent standards.

“Sustainability is at the core of JA Solar’s operations, and this recognition is a testament to our long-standing commitment,” said Aiqing Yang, Executive President of JA Solar. “As a long-time supporter of SSI, we have been deeply involved in shaping industry-wide sustainability standards. Looking ahead, we will continue to integrate sustainable practices across our global manufacturing network, strengthening supply chain resilience and driving positive change throughout the PV industry.”
