JinkoSolar has secured a contract to supply its N-type TOPCon modules for a 100-megawatt solar project in Azerbaijan’s Caucasus region.

JinkoSolar has secured a contract to supply its N-type TOPCon modules for a 100-megawatt solar project in Azerbaijan’s Caucasus region. The modules will be used in the Gobustan PV farm, developed by HuanTai Energy (Universal Energy), which won the project in Azerbaijan’s first renewable energy tender with a bid of USD 0.0354 per kWh.

The Gobustan solar park, located in the Garadagh region near the Caspian Sea, is expected to become operational in 2027. It will generate 180 million kWh of electricity annually, enough to power around 50,000 homes, and reduce approximately 146,500 tonnes of CO₂ emissions per year.

JinkoSolar stated that its N-type TOPCon modules are well-suited for the local environment, which features high temperatures, strong winds, sand exposure, and high salinity, making them ideal for challenging climate conditions in the Caucasus.

[SMM PV News] Puerto Rico Rooftop Solar Hits 20% of Total Power Capacity
Recent 'EIA' data shows rooftop solar now makes up 20% of Puerto Rico's power capacity (1,456 MW), surpassing natural gas as the second-largest source. Between 2016 and 2025, distributed solar accounted for 81% of all new capacity. To combat frequent grid outages, residents have deployed over 171,000 battery systems (2,864 MWh), with many joining grid operator LUMA's virtual power plant ('VPP') program. Despite this progress, new legislation extended the territory's sole coal plant to 2032 and removed interim renewable targets, though the 100% goal for 2050 remains.

[SMM PV News] US Solar Faces Labor Shortage Ahead of 'OBBBA' Deadline
The US solar industry faces a 53,000-worker shortfall as developers rush to meet the July 2026 construction deadline under the 'OBBBA'. Projections indicate 355,000 workers are needed to hit the 60-70 GW installation targets, yet 86% of employers report hiring difficulties. The labor crunch is compounded by a mandate requiring 15% of labor hours to come from apprentices to secure tax credits. To adapt, developers are building internal training pipelines, targeting veterans, and utilizing digital tools to maximize efficiency.
