Among all types of photovoltaic power plants, those used for agricultural solar lighting and fishing solar lighting come with the highest construction costs. This stems from the considerable challenges these projects hold – pile foundation, construction difficulty and labor cost – in comparison to more ‘normal use’ photovoltaic power plants.</p>
<p>
Following the silicon wafer size controversy in the first half of the year, the mass production controversies of Longi, Jinko Solar, and JA Solar surrounding 182 modules have once again moved into the spotlight. Despite these controversies, large-size silicon wafer is still the strategy recognized by the entire industry today as the means to achieve grid parity for the photovoltaic industry.</p>

Trina Solar announces that its mass production of Vertex 550W ultra-high-power modules in Yancheng, Jiangsu province, has begun with the opening of a new manufacuting plant. The new Vertex factory was completed in 2020. It is equipped with advanced equipment and industrial facilities, and highly automated and intelligent operating systems.</p>
<p>
Trina Solar Co., Ltd announced that the company's Vertex 600W/550W series ultra-high power modules had passed the comprehensive reliability test by TÜV Rheinland. This is another major breakthrough and milestone after Trina Solar was granted both the IEC 61215 PV module performance standard and the IEC 61730 PV module safety standard certificates in March 2020.</p>
<p>
Trina Solar announces recently that total sales of its ultra-high power modules, the Vertex Series, have reached 1GW worldwide, including nearly 200MW in Europe as well as from three other major regions, Asia Pacific, Middle East and Latin America.</p>
