SunPower Smart Energy CO., LTD. (SPE) has earned further recognition for its solar PV engineering excellence! Two benchmark projects—the Niuchoukeng project in Houli, Taichung, and the KYMCO project in Lujhu, Kaohsiung—were both awarded the prestigious 2026 12th Urban Engineering Quality Gold Award, highlighting SPE's top-tier green energy engineering quality and planning capabilities.
SPE Chairman Chung-Chih Tsai stated that solar PV engineering extends beyond installing power equipment; it must balance land, environmental, and industrial needs. Both award-winning projects address distinct site conditions by adapting to local terrain and supporting industrial decarbonization, introducing tailored green energy solutions that advance sustainable development.
The nearly 2MW ground-mounted solar PV project in Niuchoukeng, Houli, Taichung was planned and supervised by SPE and constructed by Yuan Rong Technology. The team invested nearly NT$10 million to clear over 477 metric tons of illegal waste. The design smoothly adapted to the natural terrain while avoiding active geological fault lines, preserving 30% of the area as green spaces and native woodland.
Additionally, part of the land was donated free of charge to serve as a local worship parking lot. Post-construction ecological monitoring revealed over 30 bird species inhabiting the area, including the protected Collared Scops Owl, successfully setting a stellar example of coexisting ecology and green energy engineering.

The rooftop solar PV project at KYMCO in Lujhu, Kaohsiung was planned and supervised by SPE and constructed by Deng Feng Green Energy. Tailored to existing factory conditions, the project adopted a "Secondary Protective Roof" construction method, cooling the facility and effectively preventing leaks without compromising structural integrity.
Operating under a 100% self-consumption power generation model, the system directly reduces carbon emissions at the production source. This initiative assists the facility in its net-zero transition, significantly boosting KYMCO’s competitiveness within global green supply chains.
SPE remains deeply committed to green energy engineering. From planning and design to construction management and ongoing O&M, SPE consistently prioritizes engineering quality alongside safety, environmental harmony, and practical benefits. Moving forward, SPE will continue partnering with engineering and industrial allies to build solar PV projects defined by professionalism, safety, and sustainable value.
