Trina Solar Launches Smart PV Solution ‘Trinapro’

This hi-tech product will help improve system stability with higher power generation and lower costs by reducing system losses.

Solar photovoltaic (PV) maker, Trina Solar has launched its smart PV solution called ‘TrinaPro’ that combines its solar modules with a solar tracker system and inverter.

The new solution is designed for utility scale ground mounting. It is the result of the company’s full cooperation agreement with Huawei Technologies, Sungrow Power Supply, as well as its strategic cooperation agreement with Nclave Renewable respectively.

This hi-tech product will help improve system stability with higher power generation and lower costs by reducing system losses.

The smart PV solution of the company provides hardware and software integration that will result in energy gain of up to 30 per cent and reduce losses by 10 per cent through a ground mounted package that consists of smart modules, solar tracker and inverter.

Trina also claims that, its new product also includes a floating solution that will cover several scenarios in terms of reservoir, lake, beach, etc.

The company further added that it has come out with this innovation as an answer to the challenges facing the PV system in the form of cost down bottlenecks.

Trina Solar assures that, by digitalising operations and maintenance (O&M), its product will offer increased return on investment.

“By interconnecting ‘Edge Computing’ and a smart O&M system on a cloud platform, TrinaPro can analyse and process data from the cloud to optimise the system’s operation model and ensure that it runs smoothly and efficiently,” the company added.

Speaking at the global launch event, Trina Solar, Chairman and CEO, Gao Jifan said, “Although solar power is a junior participant in energy industry, it is one of the major power to drive the future development of the whole industry.”

“By the optimized combination in terms of improving power generation, lowering system LCOE and integrating smart O&M system, TrinaPro will help its clients with higher investment gain,” said Yin Rongfang, VP of Trina Solar & President of Global Sales & President of Overseas Commercial & Residential Solutions.
