BEIJING, Sept. 20, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — JA announced that its independently developed
and packaged P-type heterojunction (P-HJT) modules were successfully launched on
September 17 and entered their planned orbit.

The mission marks JA’s first in-orbit test of P-HJT modules, with future large-scale
commercial applications as a long-term goal.

"Energy innovation has long been a driving force behind human progress," said Dr.
Ouyang Zi, Chief Technology Officer of JA. "As satellite deployment accelerates 
and the space economy expands, solar power is expected to play an increasingly important
role in future space infrastructure. Developing more cost-competitive solar solutions
for space is therefore an important strategic priority.

"JA has spent years building expertise in photovoltaic technology, with the reliability
and long-term performance of its products proven through large-scale manufacturing
and deployment across a wide range of terrestrial applications. This in-orbit test
extends those capabilities into the space environment and marks an important step
in JA’s exploration of future space energy solutions.

"Through real-world testing in orbit, we aim to assess the reliability and degradation
of crystalline silicon technology in low-Earth orbit and explore more cost-competitive
options for future space energy systems. The technology will require long-term validation,
but we believe it is a direction worth pursuing."

In orbit, the JA modules will be exposed to harsh conditions, including intense 
radiation, high-energy particles and extreme temperature swings. By comparing in-
orbit performance data with results from ground-based simulations, JA will assess
the long-term reliability and degradation of P-HJT technology in low-Earth orbit.

If the validation targets are achieved, the program could help accelerate the adoption
of mature crystalline silicon technologies as an alternative to gallium arsenide
in low-Earth-orbit applications, potentially lowering the cost of satellite power
systems. It could also support the development of satellite internet, remote sensing,
space communications, space-based computing and other low-Earth-orbit applications.

JA will use the mission as a starting point to further strengthen its module R&D
and manufacturing capabilities and advance scalable energy solutions for space exploration
and commercial space applications.

Space PV remains at an early stage of exploration and validation, and large-scale
commercialization remains highly uncertain. JA currently has no orders related to
space PV, and the program has no material impact on its current operating performance.
