The 150MW fishery-PV project in Qiucun Town, Ningbo City, was successfully connected to grid recently, demonstrating the superior reliability of Trinasolar's high-efficiency Vertex N 700W+ modules in offshore scenario.

Situated in the coastal, marine resource-rich Qiucun Town, this project thus adopts an innovative fishery-PV model, with solar panels installed 2.5 meters above the fish ponds. This ensures continued fish and shrimp farming and clean energy generation.

The shade from the panels help maintain optimal water temperatures, reduce evaporation, and limit excessive sunlight, fostering a healthier aquatic environment and reducing the risk of algae blooms. As a result, the project delivers significant environmental and economic benefits.

The port-adjacent plant is exposed to challenges such as storms, high humidity and salt exposure, placing great demands on module reliability. To guarantee safety and stability in demanding environments such as offshore applications, Trinasolar has made major breakthroughs in this field, including the development and industrialization of dual-coated glass and co-extruded POE materials that significantly improve resistance to high temperatures, moisture, seawater, and UV radiation. Trinasolar's Vertex N 700W+ modules used in this project, earned Top Performer status in all seven Kiwa PVEL tests — with PID, DH, TC, and MSS proving their strength in harsh coastal environments.

In addition to great reliability, overall power generation in offshore applications is equally critical. Given the frequent cloudy and foggy conditions in coastal regions, excellent low-irradiance performance is essential to ensuring stable energy output. The Vertex N 700W+ modules deliver exceptional energy yields during mornings, evenings, and even cloudy or rainy weather, ensuring consistent, high-efficiency power generation throughout the day.

Equipped with high-reliable and efficient Vertex N 700W+ modules, the project is expected to generate around 200 million kWh of clean electricity annually, saving more than 60,000 tons of standard coal and reducing carbon dioxide emissions by over 150,000 tons each year.

“This fishery-PV project stands as another compelling example to the global deployment and proven reliability of our Vertex N 700W+ modules” said Vincent Wu, President of China MU at Trinasolar. “Looking forward, Trinasolar remains committed to delivering tailored, high-efficiency solutions across diverse application scenarios to better meet the evolving needs of customers worldwide.”
