Trina Solar Announces New High-Efficiency Honey Ultra Module

Trina Solar, a global manufacturer of photovoltaic (PV) modules, solutions and services, announced its State Key Laboratory of PV Science and Technology has developed a new high-efficiency Honey Ultra solar module.

Trina Solar’s Honey Ultra monocrystalline silicon module reached a new record of 326.3W, which has been independently certified by TUV Rheinland, an authoritative certification institution. This result sets a new world record for p-type monocrystalline silicon modules. The monocrystalline silicon module is composed of 60 high-efficiency Honey Ultra monocrystalline silicon cells of 156mm x 156mm, fabricated with a technology developed by Trina Solar and currently in pilot production.

Honey Ultra marks the second generation of Trina Solar’s Honey module technology, and the new high-efficiency record significantly extends the previous milestone of 284.7W attained by Trina Solar’s first generation of Honey modules.

The module integrates core technologies including back surface passivation technology and low-resistance connection technology, each of which have been researched and developed by Trina Solar.

This new Honey Ultra module marks a key milestone for Trina Solar’s State Key Laboratory of PV Science and Technology since its accreditation in November 2013 and follows the company’s development of a new Interdigitated Back Contact (“IBC”) cell capable of delivering an efficiency of 24.4%.

This demonstrates Trina Solar’s monocrystalline silicon module and the technology behind these high-efficiency modules is suitable for rapid roll-out to large-scale production.
