Trina Solar publishes CAPEX and LCOE assessment White Paper, pointing to best value with Vertex 210mm modules
PR94303
CHANGZHOU, China, Jan. 28, 2022 /PRNewswire=KYODO JBN/ --
On January 26, Trina Solar released its CAPEX and LCOE assessment White Paper,
including Fraunhofer ISE, DNV, Black&Veatch, Enertis Applus+, and UL, five
global authoritative organizations for the Vertex series modules. The
calculation research covers 6 countries and forms 84 sets of comparative data,
which intuitively and comprehensively shows the system value advantages of the
Vertex series modules.

Accelerate the dual carbon goals attainment
At present, the world is committed to carbon neutrality, and building a new
power system with new energy as the main body is also the direction of our
country's energy transformation. As far as the PV field is concerned, only a
lower LCOE can accelerate the replacement of fossil energy such as coal and
crude oil, and promote the realization of the "dual carbon" goals.

The latest White Paper starts by explaining the system value principle and
various ways of reducing levelized cost of energy (LCOE). It lists the
calculations and studies by Fraunhofer ISE (
DNV (
BLACK&VEATCH (
Enertis Applus+ (
and UL (
performed in Germany, Spain, Brazil, the United States, Australia and the UAE,
covering PV modules of four different sizes: 210mm, 182mm, 166mm and 158mm. The
study shows that the impact of using different modules on the value of the
whole system based mainly on the difference in two indicators, balance of
system (BOS) cost and LCOE.
Cutting-edge Vertex 210mm Module's LCOE reduced by up to 4.1%
The "White Paper" points out that from the calculation formula of LCOE, its
value is proportional to all costs in the entire life cycle, such as CAPEX,
OPEX, etc., and is inversely proportional to the power generation in the entire
life cycle. Comparing the research results of various measurement agencies, it
can be seen that under the same conditions, the power generation of the entire
project life cycle will be different for different component (P-type)
solutions, but the difference is limited, and the impact of the project's CAPEX
on LCOE is more significant. That is, when the difference in power generation
is limited, lower CAPEX means lower LCOE.
The comparison results of the above-mentioned measurement agencies in different
regions and different types of projects show that the 210 Vertex modules
represented by Trina Solar have significant advantages in terms of electrical
system cost, transportation cost and tracker installation cost compared with
182mm and 166mm modules. Compared with the 182-540W reference module, the Trina
Solar Vertex 670W series module can reduce the corresponding LCOE by 4.1%.
Trina Solar's 210 Vertex series modules have taken the impact of system cost
into account from the beginning of design, and innovated the design concept of
low voltage and high power, which can increase the string power by up to 41%,
bringing higher system value and lower power consumption. The cost of
electricity has become the best choice for the large-scale PV plants, and it
also brings higher value to customers.
Smart matching tool 3.0 goes live
In order to provide customers with better services, Trina Solar has previously
launched the intelligent matching databases for PV project design version 2.0,
which includes 22 string inverters of 238 products, 14 mainstream tracker
manufacturers, over 30 tracker products. The tool has been upgraded to version
3.0 with richer data, allowing customers to identify BOS and LCOE data and the
difference of various modules under a concrete project condition through an
intelligent search. (website: pvd.trinasolar.com)
