In order to demonstrate the superior performance of this innovative technology as compared with the conventional photovoltaic power generation technology, the Group's technology innovation team provided technology support for a photovoltaic power plant at Nanning City, Guangxi Province to build a trial site in 2019. The power generation result was verified by an independent testing centre. Based on that verification report, an authoritative solar energy association published
