China's PV Tech Advances: Trina Solar & BYD Unveil Innovative Modules for Extreme Climates
China's photovoltaic (PV) technology is evolving, with companies like Trina Solar and BYD unveiling innovative, application-specific module designs. These advancements aim to enhance performance and durability in challenging global climates, bolstering China's global competitiveness in solar energy.
Trina Solar's latest module, equipped with an upgraded i-TOPCon cell design and a robust dual-glass structure, has demonstrated exceptional stability in damp-heat conditions. After passing the rigorous DH2000 test and excelling in seven enhanced reliability tests by Kiwa PVEL, this module is set to strengthen China's global solar market presence.
Meanwhile, BYD has introduced Molan, the world's first module designed specifically for desert and Gobi conditions. Field results indicate that Molan increases energy yield by 4.49% and reduces manual cleaning costs for desert solar plants. This innovative module has also earned the world's first 'Desert Module' certification from TÜV Rheinland. Molan's features include a nano-scale self-cleaning coating, improved reliability, reinforced mechanics, and enhanced high-temperature performance.
In another development, Trina Solar's N-type TOPCon 700W+ Vertex module has proven its durability and high performance in damp-heat conditions in Wenchang, Hainan. These advancements collectively underscore China's commitment to refining PV technology for diverse global use cases and supporting the global energy transition.
With Trina Solar's and BYD's innovative module designs, China's PV technology is adapting to extreme global climates, demonstrating enhanced performance and durability. These advancements not only strengthen China's competitiveness in the global solar market but also support the broader energy transition.
