, a global leader in the solar PV industry, today announced that it will supply 19 MW of solar modules for a PV project in Chile.

"We are proud of what we have accomplished in Chile this year having become the one of the largest suppliers of PV modules with over 160 MW of contracts signed," said Mr. Alberto Cuter, JinkoSolar's Sales Director for Emerging Markets. "The increase in demand for renewable energy has turned Chile into one of the regions' principal solar markets. This project sets a new milestone for JinkoSolar in the Latin American renewable energy market and demonstrates our commitment to clean energy development in Chile."
