JA Solar signed a module supply agreement with Larsen & Toubro (L&T), the EPC contractor for the Samarkand 1 and 2 Solar PV Power Plants in Uzbekistan. JA Solar said in a press release that it will supply all of the photovoltaic modules for the two utility-scale projects.
The Samarkand 1 & 2 projects, developed by ACWA Power, will have a combined capacity of 1.2 GWp and are located in the Samarkand region. Once operational, they are expected to generate enough electricity to power 600,000 households, offsetting 1.4 million tons of CO₂ emissions annually. The projects support Uzbekistan’s national target of sourcing 25% of its electricity from renewables by 2030.
About The Collaboration
The collaboration among ACWA Power, L&T, and JA Solar reflects a shared commitment to delivering bankable, high-performance solar assets in emerging markets. In addition to clean energy generation, the projects are expected to contribute to local employment, infrastructure development, and grid stability.
“We are honored to support these strategic projects alongside world-class partners,” said Mr. Aiqing Yang, Executive President of JA Solar. “Our high-efficiency, high-reliability modules are engineered to maximize energy yield in diverse environments. This agreement underscores the confidence our partners place in JA Solar’s technology and execution capabilities.”
JA Solar will continue to work closely with international developers and EPCs to deliver reliable PV solutions that meet the performance, durability, and delivery standards required for large-scale deployment. The company is committed to enabling sustainable growth across Central Asia and other high-potential markets.
JA Solar’s Previous Module Supply Deal with L&T
These companies previously collaborated in November 2025. During the previous collaboration, JA Solar signed a solar module supply agreement with Larsen & Toubro (L&T), the EPC contractor for the Samarkand 1 and 2 Solar PV Power Plants in Uzbekistan. As per the contract, JA Solar will supply all photovoltaic modules for these two utility-scale projects.
Located near Samarkand, the Samarkand 1 & 2 projects, being developed by ACWA Power, will have a combined capacity of 1.2 GW. These solar power plants are expected to generate enough electricity to power hundreds of thousands of homes and reduce carbon emissions by over one million tons annually.
Notably, Uzbekistan’s national renewable energy target is to source 25 percent of electricity from renewables by 2030.
