Trina Solar has announced that its Honey solar module has set a new world record for high power output for P-type monocrystalline silicon PV modules, which is certified by TUV Rheinland.
Company has developed these modules in its Key Lab of PV Science and Technology, which are composed of 60 156mm x 156mm high-efficiency Honey monocrystalline silicon cells.
The generated peak power output by the modules is 335.2W, which breaks the prior world record of 326.3W.
Through the advanced State Key Lab of PV Science and Technology Trina Solar is delivering on its commitment to be the innovation leader in the industry, said, Zhiqiang Feng, technology vice president, director, State Key Laboratory of PV Science and Technology, Trina Solar.
Company has broken the world record twice within just half a year which provides confidence in the huge potential to commercialize modules with higher efficiency, thereby reducing the cost of achieving grid parity and providing high-efficiency solar energy to more households in the near future, added Feng.
In a recent venture, Trina Solar has signed a share purchase agreement on September 30, 2014 to sell the 10.6MW PV power plant located in Trehawke, UK to funds managed by Foresight. This is the first of two Trina Solar UK projects that connected to the grid in Q1 2014.
The utility-scale Trehawke solar power plant utilizes 41,404 Trina Solar TSM-255-PC05A modules that provide high quality, durability and performance. The solar power plant generates 10,300 MWh of electricity every year.
