On the occasion of World Soil Day, Trinasolar, a global leader in smart PV and energy storage solutions, highlights its commitment to protecting soil and biodiversity through the “Trina Forest” initiative.
In collaboration with Retree, which is dedicated to turn degraded land into measurable and certifiable carbon sinks, this initiative has planted 1,000 trees, restored 9,345 square meters of degraded land, compensated 268.75 tons of CO₂, contributed 11.95 cubic meters of water-related benefits to the soil, and generated more than 300 hours of rural employment, demonstrating its measurable impact. Trinasolar will extend this initiative next year, reinforcing its and Retree’s long-term commitment to sustainable land and ecosystem management.
The plantations currently focus on two priority areas in Spain due to their ecological value and vulnerability: the “Valle de los Sueños” in the Sierra Norte of Madrid and the “Vértice del Frío” in Teruel. Both regions face extreme climatic conditions, high depopulation, and soil erosion, which have hindered the natural recovery of their historic juniper forests. Planting native species adapted to these demanding environments supports a gradual restoration process, enhancing biodiversity and strengthening the resilience of these ecosystems.
“Trina Forest’ is a clear example of how Trinasolar is committed to sustainability in practice. By restoring soils and supporting biodiversity, we are building the foundation for a greener and more resilient Europe,” said Gonzalo de la Viña, President of Trinasolar Europe and Latin America & the Caribbean.
The continuation of “Trina Forest” coincides with World Soil Day, a date that highlights the importance of maintaining healthy soils to ensure environmental stability and future ecological balance. The restoration efforts in these areas are supported by Retree’s software, currently undergoing international certification, which enables real-time monitoring of tree growth and CO₂ absorption, reinforcing transparency and responsible environmental management.
In this context, Trinasolar recently joined the Retree team at their ROOTS event, a forum focused on environmental regeneration, biodiversity, smart forests and innovation applied to sustainability. Trinasolar’s participation reinforces its commitment to sustainable partners who drive real environmental impact and promote collaborative approaches that combine local action, digital tools and regenerative land management.
This partnership forms part of Trinasolar’s global ESG strategy, which connects solar innovation with ecosystem protection and the creation of social value. The company promotes initiatives that restore soils, recover biodiversity and support rural communities, contributing to an energy transition that not only reduces emissions but also regenerates the natural environment
