Apple Supplier Luxshare Connects Solar Power Plant To Grid
Emeren Group Ltd (Emeren), a global solar project developer, owner, and operator, announced the successful grid connection of a 4.5 MW solar power plant at Luxshare iTech (Zhejiang) Co. Ltd. (Luxshare), located in Jiashan County, Zhejiang Province, China. Luxshare is a major facility of Luxshare Precision Industry Co. Ltd., also known as Luxshare-ICT, an electronics manufacturing company and the first iPhone manufacturing partner in mainland China.
The newly commissioned solar plant, fully developed and financed by Emeren, features a 4 MW rooftop distributed photovoltaic (PV) system as the primary contributor to the project. In addition, the 0.5 MW solar PV carport, integrated with electric vehicle (EV) charging stations, enhances energy management by combining solar generation and EV charging capabilities.
As an active participant in Apple’s Supplier Clean Energy Program, Luxshare said it is committed to integrating renewable energy into its operations. This collaboration with Emeren is part of Luxshare’s broader sustainability strategy, aimed at reducing carbon emissions and improving energy efficiency.
