Jinko Power is committed to effectively navigating local regulatory frameworks. We firmly believe that integrating high-quality Italian supply chains and standardized processes will enhance project resilience and operational efficiency and long-term asset performance .”

Mr. Pignotti said: “This agreement marks a further step in strengthening trade and economic relations between Italy and China in a strategic sector such as renewable energy. Through this cooperation, we aim to support Jinko Power’s investment plans in Italy while fostering the involvement of Italian companies and supply chains in the development of photovoltaic, agrivoltaic and energy storage projects. It fully reflects SACE’s commitment to promoting sustainable growth, supporting exports and creating new business opportunities for Made in Italy.”

During the mission, both parties also exchanged views on market developments and potential avenues for future cooperation.

As the global energy transition continues to accelerate, Jinko Power looks forward to further strengthening its cooperation with SACE and contributing to the development of a more resilient, sustainable and low-carbon energy system.
