TIRANA, Albania, May 11, 2022a /PRNewswire=KYODO JBN/ --

GCL System Integration Technology Co., Ltd. ("GCLSI" or "the Company")

(Shenzhen: 002506), a leading photovoltaics company, announced the first phase

of Albania's largest floating solar project, to which GCLSI provides patented

modules, was successfully connected to the grid.

Working jointly with Ocean Sun, a Norwegian owner and developer of proprietary

floating solar technology, GCLSI as a supplier, provides solar modules to the 2

MWp project on the Banja reservoir, the largest project of its kind in the

region, which is now under construction.

"We are proud that our patented modules have been chosen to play a key role in

this major floating solar project in Albania," said Thomas Kun Zhang, Executive

President of GCLSI. "The cooperation identifies those products stamped by GCLSI

have strong competitiveness in the global floating market," Zhang added.

"The long-term collaboration with GCLSI has been excellent thanks to the

high-performance modules and the professional and supportive GCLSI team," said

Børge Bjørneklett, CEO of Ocean Sun.

The project, with an estimated total investment of EUR 2 million, was overseen

by Europe's largest renewable energy producer, Statkraft, together with Ocean

Sun. GCLSI has taken part in the project by providing solar modules, which have

passed rigorous testing in the development process, and are fit for multiple

circumstances, including being submerged in seawater over a long period without

jeopardizing performance.

The first implementation phase of the project comprises about 1600 solar

panels, covering almost 4,000 square meters, with an installed capacity of 0.5

MWp. The unit was successfully deployed and connected to the grid recently.

The second phase adds a combined capacity of 1.5 MWp, and the construction is

estimated to be completed by this year. After completion, the plant will

generate renewable energy and inject the power into the Albanian national grid.
