On Nov 14, 2025, under a crisp autumn sky painted with golden ginkgo leaves, the entire Sunpal family stepped away from production lines, R&D labs, and sales offices to embark on a meaningful day of connection and challenge. All the employees gathered for a full-day team-building hiking event at the scenic Shushan Xiaolingnan in Hefei, themed “Walking Together on the Road, Reaching New Heights.”
The outing was more than just a break from daily routines — it was a powerful reminder that the same unity and determination that drive Sunpal to deliver clean energy worldwide also live within every member of our team.
A Perfect Autumn Day for New Memories
The day began early with excitement in the air. From 08:00 to 08:30, colleagues gathered downstairs at the Sunpal headquarters building, greeting each other with warm smiles and Sunpal-branded caps and jackets. At exactly 08:30, a fleet of coaches departed, carrying laughter and anticipation toward Shushan Xiaolingnan, a beautiful natural area just outside the city known for its rolling hills, ancient trees, and peaceful trails.
By 09:00, everyone had arrived and quickly settled into the fresh mountain air. After a short rest, the official program kicked off with energetic group formation and warm-up activities. Lively music echoed through the valley as teams stretched, played ice-breaking games, and received their adventure packs — backpacks filled with water, snacks, Sunpal eco-friendly water bottles, and custom team flags.
The “Legend of Holy Water” Challenge
At 10:00 sharp, the core activity began: a 5.5-hour hiking challenge titled “Legend of Holy Water.” Teams of 10–12 colleagues set off on different trails, each tasked with completing a series of creative missions inspired by the natural and cultural heritage of Xiaolingnan.
Along the route, participants solved riddles about renewable energy, located hidden “solar energy checkpoints,” took fun group photos at scenic spots, and worked together to carry symbolic “holy water” (representing clean, sustainable power) to the destination.
The course was designed not only to test physical endurance but also to strengthen trust and communication. Colleagues who usually work in different departments supported one another up paths, shared water bottles during breaks, and cheered loudly when teammates overcame challenging sections. The autumn sunshine filtering through the trees created a perfect backdrop for countless memorable moments.
Reaching the Peak — Together
By early afternoon, waves of Sunpal teams reached the final gathering point at the top of Xiaolingnan. Tired but triumphant, faces glowed with accomplishment and joy. At 15:30, the awards ceremony began under fluttering Sunpal banners. Medals were presented to the fastest teams, the most creative photo submissions, and the groups that best embodied the spirit of collaboration. Every participant, however, received a commemorative medal as a token of the shared journey.
A massive group photo followed, capturing over hundreds of Sunpal employees standing shoulder-to-shoulder against the stunning autumn panorama — a true visual representation of unity and strength.
A Message from Leadership
Mr. Juray Zhu, Chairman of Sunpal, addressed the crowd with heartfelt words:
“Today we walked the same path, breathed the same air, and reached the same peak together. This is exactly how Sunpal has grown into a global leader in solar energy — one step, one module, one shared goal at a time. Every panel we produce carries not just watts, but the passion and teamwork you showed today. Thank you for walking together, and let's continue reaching new heights in 2026 and beyond!”
Recharged and Ready for the Future
At 16:00, after enjoying final moments of autumn scenery and friendship, the team boarded the buses for a relaxed return journey. Conversations were filled with stories of the day's adventures, new inside jokes, and promises to stay connected across departments.
As Sunpal continues to expand its global footprint and push the boundaries of photovoltaic innovation with TOPCon, HJT, and next-generation energy solutions, events like this remind us that our greatest strength lies in our people. A united team creates unlimited energy — both for each other and for a greener planet.
Here's to more shared journeys, stronger bonds, and a brighter, more sustainable tomorrow.Walking together on the road, reaching new heights — Sunpal never stops moving forward.
