PowerChina has launched its 2026 centralized equipment procurement program, launching tenders for 97 GW of renewable energy and network equipment to ensure supply chain stability through framework agreements. The program includes 35 GW of wind turbines, 31 GW of solar panels and 31 GW of solar inverters for projects before 2026, with bids due by December 24, 2025. The tender for solar modules is split into n-type TOPCon of 24 GW, HJT of 3 GW and BC technologies of 4 GW, all of which have bifacial compatibility and cell sizes of 182 millimeters and more require. The inverter tender covers integrated cabinet inverters of more than 3,125 MW at 8 GW, string inverters of more than 300 kW at 20 GW and smaller string inverters from 10 kW to 150 kW at 3 GW. PowerChina said the procurement will be conducted through framework shortlisting, with suppliers selected through secondary competitive processes.
Three Gorges Group has released the results of its 2026 solar procurement, with six module suppliers selected for a 2.5 GW tender, including JinkoSolar, Tongwei, Longi, Astronergy and JA Solar, with bid prices ranging from CNY0.75 ($0.11)/W to CNY0.763/W. In a related tender of 3 GW inverters, shortlisted suppliers for string inverters from 300 kW to 400 kW include Sungrow, Chungwang Xinyun Intelligent Technology, Zhuzhou Converters National Engineering Research Center, Sungrow Electric and Xiamen Kehua Digital Energy Technology.
Long has terminated its planned global share certificate issuance and Swiss listing after the 2022 proposal approval period expired. The plan, approved by the board and shareholders, targeted revenues of nearly CNY 20 billion, equivalent to $2.75 billion. Longi said external market changes and lapses in regulatory approvals led to the global certificate plan being halted after consultation with advisors.
