The 150MW fishery-PV project located in Ningbo City was recently connected to the grid. This achievement highlights the high reliability of Trinasolar’s Vertex N 700W+ modules in offshore applications.
This project uses a fishery-photovoltaic model, placing solar panels 2.5 meters above fish ponds to support ongoing aquaculture and clean energy production.
Panel shade keeps water cool, cuts evaporation, and limits sunlight, improving water quality and reducing algae growth. As a result, the project offers 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 ensure safety and stability in demanding environments such as offshore applications, Trinasolar has made major breakthroughs, including the development and industrialization of dual-coated glass and co-extruded POE materials that significantly enhance 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 in the morning, evening, and even on cloudy or rainy days, 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 of the global deployment and proven reliability of our Vertex N 700W+ modules,” said Vincent Wu. “Looking forward, Trinasolar remains committed to delivering tailored, high-efficiency solutions across diverse application scenarios to better meet the evolving needs of customers worldwide.”
