According to Frost & Sullivan, the group ranked third globally in terms of photovoltaic module shipment volume last year, with a market share of 12.3%, and has been among the top four in the world in photovoltaic module shipments for the past ten years since 2015. As of December 31, 2024, its products cover 178 countries and regions globally, and it has established 16 overseas sales companies, including seven regional operation centers in various parts of the world.
