Trina's Qinghai facility produces 210 Vertex modules: Chinese solar module manufacturer Trina Solar said via WeChat that the first 210 Vertex 670W series ultra-high-power module has been successfully produced from its Qinghai facility. This also means that the first 5 GW facility of 15 GW module facility in Qinghai has been completed and put into operation. Using 210mm large silicon wafer technology and half-cut module technology, these 210 modules have higher customer value, can effectively reduce system BOS costs, and achieve lower cost per unit of electricity. Meanwhile, Trina had taken part in TaiyangNews Solar Module Innovation Conference and spoken about its n-Type Solar Product (see Jerry Cao, Trina: Trina's n-Type Solar Product)
