　　NANJING, March 18 (Xinhua) -- Chinese solar panel manufacturer Jiangsu Seraphim Solar System will launch a 1GW half-cell solar module factory in May.

　　The company, based in east China's Jiangsu Province, has more than 6GW of PV products applied in over 40 countries.

　　Seraphim's new plant is built in northern China's Shanxi Province, in partnership with Shanxi Lu'an Photovoltaics Technology.
