CHANGZHOU, China, Feb. 24, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Trina Solar Co.,
Ltd.'s global PV module shipments passed a new milestone in 2019,
topping 10 GW for the year. According to the 2019 module shipment
ranking released by PV InfoLink, Trina
Solar ranked among the top three and maintained its global
leadership in the category.
In 2019, the company broke the world record for the conversion
efficiency of N-type monocrystalline and N-type cast-mono i-TOPCon
solar cells, while continuing to promote multi-busbar,
double-glass, bifacial and other advanced module technologies,
leading the PV industry in terms of technical advantages. In
August, Trina Solar took the
initiative in developing modules that deploy the 210mm silicon
wafer (210 modules), in line with industry trends. Based on decades
of R&D and manufacturing experience, the company introduced a
unique three-piece and multi-busbar design for
large-size modules. The first 210 module prototype rolled
off the company's production line in early 2020, greatly
accelerating time-to-market for large-size modules.
The company's TrinaPro solution business witnessed rapid growth
in 2019. TrinaPro features a selection of Trina Solar's high-efficiency modules, which,
combined with an intelligent bifacial tracker algorithm and a 1500V
intelligent inverter, can effectively enhance overall system
efficiency, reduce the levelized cost of electricity and win the
favor of customers worldwide. Sales of the Trinpro solution in
the first three quarters of 2019 climbed to more than five times
the figures for the whole of 2018. TrinaPro was deployed at several
PV power installations that went into operation during 2019,
including a Qinghai Golmud Solar Park and a PV facility in
Marchihue, Chile, garnering high
recognition from owners for excellent power generation and system
reliability.
In 2019, the company invested in the construction of GW-level
high-efficiency solar cell and module production facilities in
Yiwu, Zhejiang and Suqian,
Jiangsu in China, and signed
framework agreements for the second phase of the projects, which,
upon completion in 2020, will significantly increase the company's
capacity.
Trina Solar vice general manage
and executive vice president Yin Rongfang said, "We are excited to
see that Trina Solar's module and
solution business again achieved remarkable numbers in terms of
shipments and received recognition from customers worldwide. In
2020, Trina Solar will continue
developing its module and tracker businesses while expanding the
breadth of its smart energy solutions and number of downstream
projects. We also see great potential for combining PV and energy
storage and have taken the initiative by investing in R&D to
meet the expected demand. As an important player in and promoter of
green energy applications, Trina
Solar plans to continue maintaining steady growth while
providing high-quality products and services to customers
worldwide."
