Tiger Neo 5.0 Leads JinkoSolar’s SNEC 2026 Showcase

JinkoSolar, a leading Chinese solar manufacturer, presented its latest solar module platform along with a portfolio of application-specific PV products, energy storage systems (ESS) and advanced cell technologies at SNEC 2026. The display included TOPCon-based modules, specialized products for different operating environments, the SunTera G5 energy storage system and its Nebula One space-grade tandem cell technology.

The company highlighted Tiger Neo 5.0 module, based on JinkoSolar's TOPCon platform. The module reaches up to 700 W of power at 25.91% efficiency, compared with 670 W for the previous generation. It also reported a power density exceeding 259 W/m². Alongside Tiger Neo 5.0, JinkoSolar presented 6 scenario-specific module products. The Anti-Dust module targets installations affected by soiling losses. It combines a dust-resistant structure with nano-coated glass to reduce dust accumulation and cleaning requirements.

For AI data center applications, the manufacturer introduced its AIDC module. Designed for projects where power demand is increasing while installation space remains limited, the module delivers up to 680 W at 25.17% efficiency. JinkoSolar stated that the product can generate more than 3% higher lifetime energy yield than conventional modules. It also reported an 88.6% reduction in system risk costs and potential insurance savings exceeding 15%.

The Safety Guardian module in the company’s portfolio focuses on fire safety and extreme-weather conditions. The product reaches 670 W power output and an efficiency of 24.8%. According to the Chinese company, this module is designed to withstand hailstones up to 55 mm in diameter, supporting mechanical loads of 7,000 Pa on the front side and 5,000 Pa on the rear side.

JinkoSolar also displayed its Anti-Glare module for installations near airports and glare-sensitive locations at the exchibition. The design converts direct reflected light into diffused reflection to mitigate glare. According to the company, the product reduces reflectance by 80% and glare by 85% compared with conventional modules. This module reaches 455 W of power at 22.77% efficiency.

For rooftops with limited structural load capacity, it showcased Light Diamond lightweight module series. Based on the Tiger Neo 3.0 platform, the series combines a weight of approximately 7 kg/m² with power output of up to 560 W and module efficiency of up to 24.94%. JinkoSolar stressed that the design reduces roof loading by more than 40% compared with conventional double-glass modules.

The Mount Tai module, explains JinkoSolar, was developed for harsh environments such as deserts and other locations exposed to high mechanical stress. The product supports mechanical loads of 6,000 Pa on the front side and 3,000 Pa on the rear side. The design doubles frame strength compared with aluminum-frame modules.

The company also displayed its Nebula One space-grade tandem cell technology. Developed for low-orbit satellite applications, the technology forms part of JinkoSolar's research activities in space-compatible crystalline silicon and tandem solar cell architectures, it shared.

Beyond PV modules, JinkoSolar showcased its SunTera G5 energy storage system. The 20-foot containerized solution uses a cell-to-pack (CTP) architecture and achieves an area energy density of more than 570 kWh/m². The system offers round-trip efficiency above 96% and integrates AI-based functions for battery health monitoring, fault detection and operation optimization.

JinkoSolar stated that cumulative shipments of its Tiger Neo series had reached approximately 220 GW by the end of 2025. With the introduction of Tiger Neo 5.0 and its scenario-specific product portfolio, the company is expanding TOPCon applications across a wider range of operating environments.
