Technology Leadership and Continuous Innovation

Independent Innovation
We established an innovation platform focusing on basic, cutting-edge, and thematic research for the new generation of photovoltaic technology. Key initiatives include:

Renewing our collaboration with Fudan University in 2024 to establish a university–industry laboratory for advanced PV technologies
Supporting the development of a collaborative innovation community in the Yangtze River Delta region of China
Leading research on crystalline silicon tandem (stacked) solar cells

Collaborative Innovation
Trinasolar leads coordinated innovation across the entire industrial chain by:

Preparing a next-generation of photovoltaic technology and equipment manufacturing innovation center
Uniting upstream and downstream enterprises and universities on advanced R&D
Jointly advancing strategic deployment of next-generation photovoltaic products, particularly crystalline silicon tandem solar cells, with global partners
Collaborating with world-class R&D and certification testing institutions to strengthen our global scientific talent base

Industry Recognition
As a pioneer in setting international standards among PV and energy storage enterprises, we lead the industry in valid invention patents and top the Global Perovskite Solar Cell Invention Patent Ranking.

Product Circulation and Recycling

Trinasolar prioritizes recycling and reuse at the end of the product lifecycle. We work closely with partners at all points in the industry chain to:

open up a green recycling pathway for the photovoltaic industry
promote the establishment of a recycling and reuse system for decommissioned photovoltaic modules
explore commercial and large-scale paths for module recycling

We strictly adhere to the European Union (EU)'s strict requirements, such as:

Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Directive (WEEE Directive)
Regulation on Registration, Evaluation, Authorization and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH Regulation) and cooperate with international bodies like PV CYCLE to establish a recycling and processing mechanism for photovoltaic modules.

Intellectual Property Protection

Trinasolar’s Yancheng Base Rated Outstanding In China's Intelligent Manufacturing Scene

In 2023, our Yancheng manufacturing base in China comprehensively improved automation, digitalization and intelligence by implementing:

Production execution system (MES)
Quality management system (QMS)
Production traceability data system
Equipment Internet of Things system (RFID)
Intelligent hardware, such as automatic guided vehicles (AGV).

These earned the Yancheng base recognition as one of China's outstanding intelligent manufacturing success stories.

Trinasolar's Quality Control Recognized, Named As Digital Transformation Pioneer

The Dingge Awards, jointly initiated by Harvard Business Review, Tsinghua University Global Industry Research Institute and SAP, recognize leaders in digital transformation.
In 2023, Trinasolar received the Production Transformation Model Award for exceptional digital production achievements in the Trina Energy Storage BU New Base Intelligent Manufacturing MES Construction Project.
