High Power Modules as well as Agriculture Production Combine, As Trina Showcases 210m Series

• Trina Solar has shared on a project, covering 160 hectares of farmland, that utilizes Trina Solar's 210 Vertex 550W series and also is expected to generate 110 million kWh of electrical power a year.

The firm is showcasing the 100 MW project as a fantastic instance of combining solar with agriculture.

The firm claims that the 210 Vertex module, based on big 210mm silicon wafers, accomplishes low-voltage high-power characteristics with innovative non-destructive cutting and high-density cell interconnect modern technology, attaining optimal power of 670W with an efficiency of 21.6%, and single string power climbing 40%.

The inverters compatible with Trina Solar's 550W modules in this project are Huawei's most recent high-current string inverters, very adjusted to ultra-high power 210 Vertexmodules, resulting not just in higher power generation and more secure procedure, but additionally doing exceptionally well in regards to system stability of weak-grid connection and intelligent operation and also upkeep. "Ultra-high-power modules are an unpreventable trend in the PV industry," claims Huawei. "That is why we have released matching inverters and also give a total set of smart PV options," it includes.

More than 10 mainstream inverter producers have currently placed high-current inverters on the marketplace that are perfectly adjusted to 210 modules. For Trina Solar, pushing to make the 210 mm standard the leading criterion over the 182 mm choice, a series of examination results on the mechanical reliability of Trina Solar 670W Vertex modules likewise offer their case. There were 6 examinations:

• a fixed mechanical load test,
• non-uniform snow-load examination,
• extreme low-temperature mechanical load examination,
• hail examination,
• extreme dynamic mechanical load (DML) test and
• a wind tunnel examination to check the modules under extreme wind problems.

Trina Solar's head of product strategy and advertising, Dr Zhang Yingbin replied to a collection of questions on the very same. Dr Yingbin, head of item method as well as marketing at Trina Solar, states these sophisticated tests intended to confirm that ultra-high-power modules can maintain their exceptional performance even when based on extreme weather.

Q: Why did Trina Solar pick to provide a white paper on these test results?

We see two major patterns in PV application. One is globalization. More than 180 countries and areas now have PV. The other is the diversification of PV application situations, such as: farming, fisheries, water, and so on. These 2 fads place greater need on module efficiency, specifically when it come to reliability. PV modules deal with enormous difficulties because of extreme climate such as: wind, snow storms, chilly as well as hail storm. An extensive variety of tests were performed covering all these extreme problems. The 670W modules showed it can endure the extreme conditions and attain high dependability and also stable capability of power production over the whole life cycle. We are sharing the study results throughout the market so there can be much more innovation as well as innovations.

Q: Just How did Trina Solar enhance Vertex 670W style to withstand extreme weather?

Based upon greater than 24 years of PV module R&D technology and manufacturing experience, we have made numerous improvements consisting of maximizing style, making frame walls thicker, enlarged dental caries as well as boosted the option of products and matching styles. Every one of this aids to attain ultra-high structural toughness. If our clients choose to develop solar setups in extreme geographic as well as climatic problems, we provide personalized products as well as installment design solutions including total remedies.

Q: Does optimizing products suggest prices are most likely to considerably rise?

It makes no feeling simply cutting expenses while overlooking the long-term reliability of products. Yet maximizing and boosting item reliability by no means suggests considerably raising expenses. It has been determined that boost will certainly be minimal, thinking about the actual value that 670W modules provide to customers in the complete life process of PV power plants.

Q: Will the core data connected to Trina Solar modules, that make use of 210mm diameter solar cells, be provided to participants of the 600W+ Open Innovation Ecological Alliance?

Yes. We are just one of the owners of this useful eco-system that consists of many industry gamers that are dedicated to development of solar modules that use 210mm diameter solar cells. The magazine of Trina Solar's 210 Vertex modules system 'white paper' indicates that it comes to be an open resource for various other firms. The core information including product layout, format, the position of installation holes, product packaging option, transport, location device and working temperature level is all shared among participants. On top of that, the production capability plans of upstream and also downstream firms, estimates of delivery and order data are also shared. The core principle of openness, innovation as well as ecology of the Alliance accelerates the technical breakthroughs and automation of 600W+, which has currently well surpassed our expectations.

Q: Will 210 modules come to be primary stream on the market?

According to the most up to date report released by PV information web link, the 210 modules production ability will certainly reach 147GW this year as well as 234GW following year. High power modules will certainly take more than 70% share of general international modules production capability. And also the pace of growth is most likely to surpass our projections.

Q: Have there been project instances of 210 in both domestic as well as international markets?

Yes, we lately released case studies on big projects that used modules based upon 210mm size solar cells. For example, the 400MW farming photovoltaic solar plant in Nangong, Hebei province. Typical three-year equal power generation hours have actually been elevated 18% with incorporated supply of the Vertex modules plus TrinaTracker solution, compared to traditional options.

The consumer involved in the 112MW project in Dachaidan, Qinghai province, selected Trina Solar 670W series ultra-high-power modules. The project is in a desert so the consumer only desired PV modules with high ability and also high dependability to hold up against extreme climate.

Overseas there are also several 210 projects. In very early August, Trina Solar become the only modules company for an 850MW big project in Brazil, all fitted with 600W+ series modules that have actually already been shipped.

Q: How would you summarize all of this?

On the course of leading the PV industry towards 600W+ modules, Trina Solar is not acting on its own. Instead, it is the collaborations as well as business synergy of the entire industry eco-system from R&D, producing to application. We wish that through innovation we can remain to focus on creating worth for our consumers and our partners while speeding up the sustainable growth of the PV sector through items that supply the best efficiency and also at the most affordable price.
