China's most successful privately owned clean energy company (2008 revenue: $2.8 billion), ENN Group was formed in 1989 primarily as an energy distributor. ENN is also devoted to energy research and development, unveiling in 2007 the first pilot process for converting coal to a gas fuel through a zero-emissions process.

A Clean Energy Legacy

Success with this venture gave ENN Group the confidence to move forward with other clean-energy initiatives, including biomass energy and now ENN Solar. Though ENN Solar is itself a startup, it's backed by ENN Group’s 26,000 employees and 20 years of experience in emerging energy markets.

Unmatched R&D resources

This includes the resources of a sibling company, ENN Research & Development, the technology flagship of ENN Group. ENN R&D has established teams of talented scientists and engineers with experience in every significant clean energy field. The unifying goal is "intelligent integration," whereby various clean energy technologies (coal gasification, bio-mass energy, solar, etc.) are combined to optimize resource use and minimize environmental impact, creating harmony and balance on a societal and ecological scale. ENN Solar benefits greatly from this relationship.
