Environmental Protection For A Green Future

Green Products

At Astronergy, we always regard “green and sustainable development” as the long-term strategic plan. We incorporate eco-friendly practices throughout the entire solar panel product lifecycle, from development and procurement to production, sales, delivery, and recycling. We are fully committed to implementing energy-saving and low-carbon practices in all links of our production.

All of our solar cells and solar modules are manufactured with larger-size silicon wafers. We actively promote the use of thinner wafers, fluorine-free backsheets, lead-free soldering strips, and dealcoholized silicone gel to achieve both economic and ecological benefits. Furthermore, we are dedicated to promoting smart, green, energy-saving, and low-carbon initiatives within our company and advancing the development of green factories.

Key Performance

By the end of 2024, the cumulative shipment of PV modules exceeds 130GW, capable of generating 169 billion kWh of green electricity annually, equivalent to reducing 160 million tCO2e of GHG emissions

38 products have conducted lifecycle assessments, representing a year-on-year increase of 153%

A total of 184 energy-saving projects were carried out throughout the year, saving approximately 122 million kWh of electricity

Implemented 17 water-saving projects throughout the year, saving 2,103,900 tons of water

Water resource recycling rate of 91.56%

0 landfill for non-hazardous waste

Non-hazardous waste recycling rate 96.23%, with a year-on-year increase of 89.80%

Environmental Protection – For A Green Future

Zero Carbon Factory

Astronergy constantly reduces carbon emissions from company production and operations. Astronergy’s Jiuquan Base successfully obtained the Zero-Carbon Factory Certification from TÜV Rheinland, becoming the second zero-carbon factory after the Yancheng Base (Phase I); During its construction, the Jiuquan base has achieved outstanding results with 100% renewable energy consumption and 100% GHG offset, resulting in significant environmental benefits.

Conservation of water use

Chint Solar (Haining) has retrofitted the spraying defoaming system in the aerobic tank of the biological treatment system at the wastewater treatment station. The upgrade involves replacing tap water with a mixture of digested reflux liquid and RO concentrate for defoaming operations. This initiative enables the recycling of waste liquid and reduces tap water consumption, achieving an annual water conservation of approximately 66,400 tons.

Biodiversity Conservation

Astronergy has developed a 25 MW agrivoltaics project in the Netherlands, providing 28,100 MWh of clean electricity annually. The project fully utilizes local idle land resources, with the shadows cast by PV panels creating an optimal environment for cultivating mushrooms and grazing sheep, establishing an integrated ecological project combining energy, agriculture, and employment, achieving both ecological protection and economic benefits.
