[Solar: SEG Solar opens 4GW module assembly plant in Texas]

Published: Aug 11, 2026 14:58
SEG Solar has opened a new 4GW solar module assembly plant in Tomball, Texas. Once fully operational next year, the facility will lift SEG’s annual US module assembly capacity to 6GW, together with its existing 2GW plant in nearby Houston. The company also announced plans to build an additional 4.6GW module assembly factory within 18 months across the street from the new Tomball facility, which would raise its total annual capacity to 10.6GW. SEG also plans to build a solar cell manufacturing plant in the US by 2028.

[SMM PV News] AIKO ABC Modules Officially Delivered to Jingneng Kubuqi Desert Phase I 240MW Project
Recently, the first fleet of vehicles loaded with AIKO ABC high-efficiency modules successfully arrived at the Kubuqi Desert base in Ordos, Inner Mongolia, marking the official start of delivery for the first phase of the Jingneng Kubuqi "desert-Gobi-wasteland" large base, a 240 MW ABC PV project. As an important part of the cluster of national desert-Gobi-wasteland clean energy bases in Inner Mongolia, this project is not only a crucial move by Jingneng Group to implement the national large base strategy for new energy, but also another demonstration of AIKO ABC high-efficiency modules supporting the construction of "desert-Gobi-wasteland" large bases with their robust product capabilities under extreme climate conditions. The Kubuqi Desert features high surface reflectivity, large day-night temperature differences, and frequent sandstorms, posing rigorous challenges to the long-term operational reliability and power generation stability of PV modules. As the sole winning bidder, AIKO supplies all 240 MW of ABC bifacial double-glass modules for this project. Leveraging high conversion efficiency, high bifaciality, and excellent low-irradiance performance, AIKO ABC modules can fully harness the reflection gains from the desert surface, boosting power generation capacity per unit area. According to estimates, the project is expected to achieve an average annual equivalent utilization of 1,612.63 hours over its 25-year operational period. Compared with conventional modules, it can save more than 6% land area, reduce BOS costs, and achieve the optimal levelized cost of electricity (LCOE) for the project.

[SMM PV Express] Yingli's first batch of Panda high-efficiency modules arrived smoothly at the Yunnan Baoshan PV project site.
On the morning of August 8, at the site of CGN's 540 MW PV power generation project cluster in Baoshan Longyang District, Yunnan, the first batch of Panda high-efficiency modules provided by Yingli Energy Development Co., Ltd. arrived smoothly, marking the official commencement of module delivery for the project and laying a solid foundation for orderly construction thereafter. The CGN Baoshan Longyang District 540 MW PV power generation project cluster in Yunnan is located in the areas of Yangliu Township, Bingma Township, and Wafang Township in Longyang District, Baoshan City. With elevations ranging from 900 meters to 2,550 meters and an average slope of 25° to 40°, the total installed capacity is 540 MW on the AC side and 661 MW on the DC side. It is another major project in Yunnan Province to accelerate the construction of clean energy bases and promote green and low-carbon transformation. The project cluster adopts a "grazing-solar complementary" development model, organically combining PV power generation with plateau ecological protection and local income growth to achieve efficient comprehensive utilization of land resources.
