Ladies and Gentlemen:

     Pursuant to Rule 461 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, Solarfun
Power Holdings Co., Ltd. (the "Company") hereby respectfully requests
acceleration of the effectiveness of the above-referenced Registration Statement
on Form F-1, as amended prior to its effectiveness, so that it will become
effective at 2:00 PM Eastern time on January 23, 2008 or as soon thereafter as
is practicable. This request supersedes the Company's acceleration request dated
and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") on
January 17, 2008.

     By this request, the Company confirms that it is aware of its
responsibilities under the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, as amended, as they relate to the securities specified in the
above-captioned registration statement, and acknowledges the following:

     1. should the Commission or the staff, acting pursuant to delegated
authority, declare the filing effective, it does not foreclose the Commission
from taking any action with respect to the filing;

     2. the action of the Commission or the staff, acting pursuant to delegated
authority, in declaring the filing effective, does not relieve the Company from
its full responsibility for the adequacy and accuracy of the disclosure in the
filing; and

     3. the Company may not assert staff comments and the declaration of
effectiveness as a defense in any proceeding initiated by the Commission or any
person under the federal securities laws of the United States.
