Work Detail |
Trinasolar has achieved a major milestone by delivering over 1 GW of its Vertex N 720W series modules to the Jinsha River upstream clean energy plant. The project is now entering a crucial construction phase, with module installation expected to be completed by year’s end.
Located between 4,200 and 4,800 meters above sea level, this project is part of the National Water, Wind and Solar Integration Demonstration Base and is the largest solar grazing initiative currently under development. Once operational, it will generate approximately 5.1 terawatt-hours of electricity annually, equivalent to saving about 1.67 million tons of standard coal and reducing CO2 emissions by 3.74 million tons each year.
The challenging plateau conditions demand photovoltaic modules with superior performance and reliability. Trinasolar’s Vertex N 720W series, utilizing advanced n-type i-TOPCon technology, boasts low degradation, high efficiency, enhanced energy yield, and outstanding reliability, ensuring lower Levelized Cost of Energy (LCOE) and increased customer value.
In tests conducted by the China General Certification Center, these modules displayed remarkable durability against intense ultraviolet exposure, showing only a 1.6% power degradation after 300 kWh/m² of UV light—significantly better than industry standards.
Cao Yunduan, head of global marketing and branding at Trinasolar, said: “Trinasolar has been a promoter of green energy and a practitioner of green development for 27 years. This project protects the local natural environment, supports sustainable pastoral practices and promotes economic growth, exemplifying Trinasolar’s practice of green development and commitment to providing safer, more efficient, and versatile smart solar and energy storage solutions that maximize value, shaping a sustainable, net-zero future where every kilowatt-hour powers a better world.” |
