CHENGDU, China, Aug. 5, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- TONGWEI, a global leader in renewable energy and one of the world's largest integrated photovoltaic manufacturers, has once again secured a place on the 2026 Fortune Global 500, ranking No. 464 globally. This marks the fourth consecutive year that TONGWEI has been included in the prestigious ranking, recognizing its strong manufacturing capabilities, business resilience, and continued growth in the global clean energy market.
The 2026 Fortune Global 500 ranking reflects the scale and competitiveness of global enterprises. The companies listed this year generated combined revenues of approximately US$43.1 trillion, exceeding one-third of global GDP. The minimum revenue threshold for entry increased from US$32.2 billion to US$33.2 billion, representing a 3% year-on-year rise. Despite a challenging global economic environment, only 122 companies from China made the list, making China the second-largest contributor after the United States.
Against the backdrop of global economic uncertainty and ongoing industrial transformation, TONGWEI's continued presence on the Fortune Global 500 represents international recognition of its comprehensive strength. It also reflects growing confidence in the long-term value and development potential of the renewable energy industry.
Built on advanced manufacturing capabilities and continuous technological innovation, TONGWEI has established a vertically integrated photovoltaic ecosystem covering high-purity polysilicon, solar cells, and PV modules. Through large-scale intelligent manufacturing, strict quality control, and sustained R&D investment, TONGWEI continues to strengthen its position as a global leader in solar technology.
Among its latest innovations, the TNC 3.0 module series represents TONGWEI's next-generation high-efficiency PV solution. Designed with advanced cell and module technologies, TNC 3.0 delivers higher power output, improved conversion efficiency, and enhanced energy yield for diverse application scenarios. The series achieves a maximum power output of 770W and efficiency of up to 24.8%, helping customers further reduce LCOE and maximize project returns.
Building on the TNC platform, TNC 3.0 BIFIMAX further enhances energy generation potential with superior bifacial performance. Certified by TÜV Rheinland, the module achieves a bifaciality of up to 93.07%, making it highly suitable for utility-scale projects and applications with strong rear-side irradiation potential.
From Fortune Global 500 recognition to continuous breakthroughs in photovoltaic technology, TONGWEI is leveraging its manufacturing excellence and innovation capabilities to support the global transition toward a cleaner and more sustainable energy future.

TONGWEI Secures Fourth Consecutive Fortune Global 500 Listing
TSUKUBA, Japan, Aug. 6, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Orbbec presented its Robot-Free Data Collection Hardware Platform for Physical AI in Japan for the first time at ROSCon JP 2026, marking the platform's official debut in the Japanese market.
Leveraging its robotics vision expertise and product breadth, Orbbec is among the few data collection platform providers combining multi-sensor fusion, calibration and synchronization, a full-stack vision portfolio, and global mass-production and delivery capabilities.
Covering Key Data Collection Needs
Built around EGO, UMI, and WristCam, the platform supports first-person observation, detailed hand-object interaction, and wrist-level near-field data collection. It can be configured by task type, collector scale, and sensor combination.
At ROSCon JP, Orbbec demonstrated live output from its Dual-Ego prototype, featuring dual 2-megapixel fisheye cameras. With synchronization accuracy within 1 ms, a six-axis IMU operating at up to 1,000 Hz and a lightweight 200 g design, Dual-Ego captures aligned visual and motion data for mobile, first-person collection.
In addition, another core product series within the platform, EGO RGB-D series combines chip-level native depth output with LingBot-Depth enhancement to improve depth completeness for transparent, reflective, and other challenging objects.
Consistency at the Core
Orbbec supports high-quality data collection at scale through four capabilities:
- High-precision multimodal calibration for spatial consistency: Accurate 3D alignment across RGB, depth, IMU, and other sensors.
- Hardware-level multi-device synchronized triggering for temporal consistency: Microsecond-level clock synchronization and frame-level alignment.
- Scaled manufacturing and global delivery for product consistency: Million-unit production experience, digital quality management, and manufacturing capacity in China and Vietnam.
- Deep technology depth and product breadth for flexible scenario customization: A full-stack matrix spanning RGB, structured light, stereo vision, ToF, and LiDAR.
Orbbec has already established strong partnerships with leading Japanese companies. Its 3D vision technologies support Hitachi's CO-URIBA "hands-free shopping" retail solution and an autonomous hospital logistics robot developed by one of Japan's top three automakers.
"Japan has an advanced robotics industry and high standards for data quality and deployment," said Felix Zheng, Managing Director, APAC Region at Orbbec. "We look forward to helping more customers scale real-world data collection efficiently."
