CHANGZHOU, China, July 17, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Trina Solar Limited
(NYSE: TSL) ("Trina Solar" or the
"Company"), a global leader in photovoltaic ("PV") modules,
solutions, and services, today announced that its TSM-PE05A and
TS-PE14A polycrystalline modules ("the Modules") have received
UL1500V certification from Underwriters Laboratories ("UL"), a
global independent safety science company.
The UL1500V award certifies that the Modules are allowed to be
used in PV systems with a maximum system voltage of 1500V,
significantly higher than the existing 1000V of most modules on the
market. Furthermore, the 1500V certification demonstrates that the
Modules produced by Trina Solar meet
higher technical standards and quality requirements. The higher
system voltage modules allow our customers to design their PV
systems with longer string length. It significantly reduces
the number of component in the balance of the system (BOS), and
reduces the cost per unit of power (US$/W) of BOS. It also boosts
the system performance by reducing the system loses.
Zhiguo Zhu, COO and President of
Module Business Unit of Trina Solar,
commented: "We are pleased to receive the UL1500V certification for
two of our modules. Being among the first PV manufacturer to have
UL1500V-certified PV modules demonstrates our leading position in
technology advancements and cutting-edge manufacturing
capabilities. We believe that the higher voltage products allow us
to deliver more value to our customers by providing better
performance products and system cost savings. We remain committed
to delivering more breakthroughs and innovations in the PV
sector."
