BloombergNEF Summit: Trina Solar's 100% bankability and Vertex modules fully proved by international authorities
SHANGHAI, Dec. 8, 2021 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ --

On November 30, 2021, Bloomberg New Energy Finance (BloombergNEF) held the 2021 
BloombergNEF Shanghai Summit. Trina Solar Chairman Gao Jifan discussed 
innovations in energy technologies and the development path for the PV industry 
with international organizations and PV manufacturers. 

At the summit, BloombergNEF, world's leading independent PV testing lab PVEL, 
assessment organization DNV and Nextracker took a deep dive into examining the 
reason for Trina Solar's 100% bankability: the superior performance of the 
innovative high-power PV modules has been fully recognized. 

Gao noted that PV power generation, energy storage, extra-high voltage, and 
digitization across the energy industry are the four keys to achieving carbon 
neutrality, and that innovation in photovoltaic technologies is an important 
pathway. Since 2020, Trina Solar has taken the lead in developing the 
innovative 210 series ultra-high power modules, a new generation of PV products 
that combine high reliability, high power generation and high value. As of June 
30, 2021, Trina Solar's photovoltaic modules shipped worldwide can produce 
103.95 billion kilowatt hours of clean energy over their lifetime, reducing 
carbon dioxide emissions by a total of 103.64 million tons, equivalent to 
planting 5.7 billion trees. With its outstanding brand value and product 
reliability, Trina Solar has scored 100% in BloombergNEF bankability survey for 
six consecutive years so far.

BloombergNEF, one of the most credible third-party research institutions in the 
global new energy market, conducts a survey among banks, funds, EPCs and power 
plants worldwide every year on the bankability of modules brands, and produced 
a report that seen as an invaluable reference for business credit at many 
financial institutions. In 2021, Trina Solar, one of the only three module 
brands, was once again awarded as 100 bankability by all survey respondents, 
indicating that Trina Solar's modules are more likely to help developers obtain 
bank financing, and that the global financial market and solar industry are 
confident in the reliability and system value of Trina Solar's high-power 
modules. 

PVEL recognizes the superior performance of Trina Solar's high-power modules 

PV Evolution Labs (PVEL), the world's leading PV module reliability and 
performance testing laboratory, has the Product Qualification Program (PQP) 
dedicated on PV module extended reliability assessment. At the summit, Tristan 
Erion Lorico, head of PVEL's PV module business, said that the 210 ultra-high 
power modules demonstrated excellent reliability in PVEL's PQP, resulting in 
zero micro-cracks of dual-glass bifacial module after MSS and TC test, 
responded to the most concerned question of large format module. PVEL publishes 
the score card report on PV module reliability annually, which is also a key 
reference adopted by BloombergNEF's annual bankability report. 

Zhang Yingbin, head of product strategy and marketing at Trina Solar, gave a 
detailed presentation on the reliability and power generation performance of 
the 210 series modules. Trina Solar has, in association with third-party 
organizations, conducted serial rigorous tests, including non-uniform snow-load 
test, extreme low-temperature mechanical Load test, hail test, extreme DML test 
and extreme wind tunnel test, achieving an across-the-board verification of the 
excellent mechanical load reliability of the 600W+ Vertex modules.

Nextracker has finished a series of tests with Trina Solar, which demonstrates 
the full compatibility and high reliability. Nextracker has a variety of 
tracker products that are fully compatible with Vertex 210 series modules. 
Besides, the modules have become an industry pioneer regarding module size 
standardization, which can benefit the downstream industry chain. 

In addition, DNV shared the advantages of Trina Solar's BOS and LCOE high-power 
modules. Previous calculations conducted by Fraunhofer ISE, largest solar 
research institute in Europe, and Enertis, a global independent solar services 
in Latin American and globally, all show that the 600W+ series modules 
outperform the new generation of ultra-high power modules in terms of system 
value.
