Trina Solar proposes joint wafer initiative DUBAI, December 27, 2020 Trina Solar Co, a leading global PV and smart energy total solution provider, is leading a joint initiative to promote the standardisation of 210mm size silicon wafer, modules in the photovoltaic industry.
Trina Solar is hopeful that this technical standard will be actively adopted by the industry, enabling it to develop and make excellent photovoltaic products on this basis.
Over the past decades, the global solar industry has constantly been upping the potential value of photovoltaic industry chains and systems. Through the upgrading of silicon wafers, cells, module technology and manufacturing, the size of silicon wafers has increased from 125mm, 156.75mm, 166mm, 182mm to today's 210mm. This is an inevitable trend alongside increasing module power, reducing the costs of productions and power generation.
