JunHe Assists in the Successful Listing of China's First Inter-Institutional REITs for Energy Storage

2026.06.09

On June 9, 2026, the Caitong Asset Management - CSI Solar Hold-type Real Estate Asset-backed Special Plan (Carbon Neutrality) was officially listed on the Shanghai Stock Exchange. Caitong Securities Asset Management Company was the plan's manager and sole distributor and Suzhou Canadian Solar New Energy Development Company was the original equity holder. This is China's first inter-institutional REITs product to use an energy storage power station as the underlying asset.


The underlying asset of this project is an independent grid-side energy storage power station located in Jiuquan City, Gansu Province, with a planned installed capacity of 200MW/800MWh. The successful implementation of this project marks a milestone breakthrough in the REITs field for energy storage, establishing a complete cycle of 'energy storage investment - REITs exit - new project development'. It is an innovation in development models for energy storage companies, providing a replicable demonstration case for the industry to connect with capital markets and attract financial support.


JunHe was the legal advisor for the special plan and provided comprehensive and professional legal services for its establishment. We participated in the design of the transaction structure, undertook legal risk assessment, conducted legal due diligence on the underlying assets and issued legal opinions. We also assisted in the drafting, review and revision of the transaction documents.


The lead partners for this project were WANG, Yi and JIANG, Wenjun (Kelvin), with WAN, Shang as the main handler.

JunHe is the only Chinese law firm to be admitted as a member of Lex Mundi and Multilaw, two international networks of independent law firms. JunHe and selected top law firms in major European and Asian jurisdictions are “best friends.” Through these connections, we provide high quality legal services to clients doing business throughout the world.
As the first carbon neutrality fund sponsored by a law firm in China, the BAF Carbon Neutrality Special Fund was jointly established by JunHe and the Beijing Afforestation Foundation (BAF) to promote carbon neutral initiatives, and encourage social collaboration based on the public fundraising platform to mobilize engagement in public welfare campaigns.
