[LONGi Green Energy's Li Zhenguo: Calls for Strengthening Practical Cooperation and Industry Self-Discipline across the Supply Chain, and Resolutely Resisting Irrational Competition] On December 17th, at the 2025 Photovoltaic Supply Chain Supporting Development Seminar, Li Zhenguo, Chief Technology Officer and President of the Central Research Institute of LONGi Green Energy, stated that while China's photovoltaic industry has achieved remarkable success, it is undergoing profound cyclical adjustments. He believes that the photovoltaic industry faces challenges related to production capacity, prices, and "involutionary" competition; an innovation-driven, robust, and collaborative supply chain system is key to promoting the industry's continued healthy development. Looking to the future, consensus needs to be reached and concerted efforts made. On the one hand, it is necessary to continuously strengthen innovation leadership, build a resilient and collaborative supply chain system, actively explore the global market, and continuously enhance the international influence and competitiveness of Chinese photovoltaic brands; on the other hand, he calls on upstream and downstream partners in the supply chain to strengthen practical cooperation, enhance industry self-discipline, resolutely resist irrational competition, and jointly create an open, inclusive, standardized, orderly, resilient, and efficient new industrial ecosystem, contributing photovoltaic power to building a new energy system and ensuring national energy security.
