The new Trina Solar Honey Ultra monocrystalline silicon module has achieved a new record of 326.3W which has been certified by TUV Rheinland. The module is composed of 60 high-efficiency silicon cells of 156mm x 156mm, fabricated with a technology developed by Trina Solar and currently in pilot production.
Honey Ultra is part of the second generation of Trina Solar’s Honey module technology and the new high-efficiency record extends the previous milestone of 284.7W attained by the company’s first generation of Honey modules. The module integrates core technologies including back surface passivation technology and low-resistance connection technology, each of which have been researched and developed by Trina Solar.
“As an advanced research and development facility, our State Key Lab of PV Science and Technology enables us to execute on our commitment to the commercialization of new high-efficiency solar cells and highly reliable modules” said Dr. Zhiqiang Feng, Vice President of Trina Solar and Director of the State Key Lab of PV Science and Technology. “In recent years the Company has successfully researched and developed new intellectual properties in the form of a series of innovative technologies and high quality products, and has successfully maintained its leading position in patent applications and grants. As a result, Trina Solar remains at the forefront of technological innovations in the solar industry.”
Trina Solar's State Key Laboratory of PV Science and Technology received accreditation in November 2013 and the new module follows the company's development of a new Inter-digitated Back Contact (IBC) cell capable of delivering efficiency of 24.4 percent.
