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.

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

To improve water use efficiency, the Fengyang Base, Jiuquan Base, and Yueqing Base implemented retrofits to recycle and reuse water from their air conditioning systems. The project collects and treats the water discharged from the air conditioning systems for reuse, reducing the consumption of fresh water. After the project was completed, the three bases saved approximately 500,000 tons of water and reduced related costs by approximately RMB 2.55 million.

Biodiversity Conservation

Astronergy facilitated the successful grid connection of the 74MW Aquaculture-PV complementary project on Dengbu Island, Zhejiang Province. This project adopts an innovative model of power generation on PV panels and farming beneath them, achieving green energy production while providing natural shading conditions for mud crab farming. The project is expected to provide approximately 85 million kWh of green electricity annually, serving as a demonstration model for clean energy development in coastal areas, quality improvement and efficiency enhancement in fisheries, and rural revitalization.
