World Standards Day: Trinasolar Leads in Standardization and Unites Efforts to Tackle Climate Challenges
2024.10.15

"Standards for the Changing Climate" was the theme for the 55th World Standards Day on October 14, 2024. Trinasolar, dedicated to addressing climate challenges, believes that following global standards is crucial for a smooth energy transition. As a proponent of standardization, Trinasolar aims to lead humanity toward sustainable development.

Technical Standards: Innovation Driving the Energy Transition

As a leading industry player, Trinasolar has contributed to developing 104 international and Chinese standards, including the recent Testing Methods for Intelligent Tracking Performance of Photovoltaic Trackers. The company received the Standards Pioneer Award from the British Standards Institution (BSI) for its significant contributions to standardization.

Trinasolar has led the way in standardizing module dimensions. In both 2021 and 2023, Trinasolar collaborated with industry partners to establish standardized dimensions for 210mm 60-cell, 66-cell, and rectangular silicon wafer modules.

Additionally, standardizing module sizes is crucial for reducing GHG emissions in the shipping industry, which contributes to 3% of global GHG emissions. Trinasolar's 210R medium-sized rectangular module maximizes the utilization rate of 40HC containers (98.5%), thereby reducing the carbon footprint associated with transportation. 

Environmental Standards: Leading with Net-Zero Carbon Operations

Aiming to reduce GHG emissions intensity by 50% by 2025, Trinasolar conducts GHG emission inventories in accordance with ISO 14064 standards and has received third-party certifications. Trinasolar’s global facilities have been certified as a “Zero-carbon Factory,” upgraded to a four-star rating, and received zero waste landfill certificates from TÜV Rheinland.

Trinasolar is also committed to green standards in its products. In 2024, the full range of Trinasolar’s modules, including Vertex, Vertex N, and Vertex S+ series, have obtained carbon footprint certifications from international agencies.

Safety Standards: Making Every Unit of Energy Safer

The industry's growth depends on both innovative technology and stringent safety standards. Trinasolar adheres to the ISO 9001 international quality management system through rigorous testing and monitoring processes. In 2024, Trina Storage's products received extensive certifications covering battery cell safety, system-wide performance, electrical safety, temperature control, thermal runaway prevention, IP protection, and fire safety reliability. These certifications underscore Trina Storage's efforts to make every unit of energy safer, even under extreme conditions.

Standardization Unites Us in a Common Destiny

Clean energy technology is a vital link connecting the world to a sustainable future, and the practice of standardization is a testament to the global commitment to addressing climate change. Trinasolar is committed to achieving the UN's Sustainable Development Goals—ensuring access to affordable, reliable, sustainable, and modern energy for all.
