JA Solar's DeepBlue 3.0 Awarded with UL Environmental Product Declaration Certification

BEIJING,March 3,2022 --JA Solar's DeepBlue 3.0,among multiple JA Solar PV modules,was recently awarded with an Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) certification by UL,the global safety science leader. The UL EPD report,also accredited by EPD Italy,gives a comprehensive assessment of the environmental impact of the product over its entire life cycle,including possible impacts such as global warming,smog,ozone depletion,acidification,ecotoxicity,etc.,and is applicable to the two global leading markets America and Europe. The assessment process follows ISO 14025 and EN 15804 standards,and its assessment result provides an important reference for investors to choose low-carbon products.

While PV power is a renewable energy with great potential for development and application,the impact of PV products on the environment over the entire life cycle has been one of concern in the end-use market. Therefore,JA Solar always follows the path of green development,by applying the concept of green environmental protection throughout the entire life cycle of its products,including R&D,production,packaging,logistics and product recycling,so as to reduce environmental impact and resource consumption.

During the process of product manufacturing,JA Solar actively advocates the application of green energy.Its production bases utilizeroof space,carports,and other unused spacesto install PV systems to generate electricity for self-usewith surplus electricity injected to the grid,thereby reducing the demand for traditional energy so as to reduce carbon emissions. Among them is JA Solar's manufacturing base in Qujing,Yunnan Province,which,by utilizing rich water resources in the local area,uses clean energy generated by hydropower that accounts for more than 85% of its total energy consumption.
