The company is one of only two PV module manufacturers with worldwide reach to gain the recognition for the sixth consecutive time since the Top Performer designation was established.
The recognition is based on the Product Qualification Program (PQP) results, presented in the 2020 PV Module Reliability Scorecard issued by PVEL, and factory witnessed within 18 months of 2020. With a focus on evaluating the performance of PV modules in terms of thermal cycling, damp heat, dynamic mechanical load, potential-induced degradation, PAN file, etc; the PQP was designed to independently recognize manufacturers who outpace their competitors in product quality and durability, and provide PV equipment buyers and power plant investors with independent, consistent reliability and performance data that supports effective supplier management.
Tristan Erion Lorico, head of PV Module Business at PVEL, said: “Consistent top performance in the PVEL PV Module Reliability Scorecard demonstrates a manufacturer’s commitment to product quality. As new products are introduced manufacturers must adhere to strict quality control standards to maintain high levels of reliability and performance of their products.”
Yin Rongfang, vice general manager and executive vice president of Trina Solar, said: “It is encouraging to see Trina Solar being recognized as a Top Performer for the sixth time in a row by an authoritative third-party such as PVEL. With more than 20 years’ of technical know-how, Trina Solar is committed to sustainability through the delivery of high power, highly efficient and topperforming modules with proven quality and reliability.
“PV power represents a long-term, stable and sustainable solution. We look forward to becoming the supplier of choice for more prospective partners, providing them with highly reliable and ultrahigh-power modules, such as the Vertex module. These top-performing modules will continue to accelerate the adoption of PV power across the globe by further improving the balance-of-systems costs and levelized cost of electricity.”
