Trinasolar, in collaboration with industry partners, hosted a site visit to a landmark agrivoltaics and aquavoltaic project. This 150MW installation combines aquaculture with solar power, utilizing Trinasolar's 210 high-efficiency Vertex series modules. The project, completed in two phases, is supported by Trina Storage's energy storage solutions, including a 27MW/54MWh liquid-cooled battery energy storage system (BESS), Trina Storage Elementa, in Phase II. Leveraging Trinasolar's vertically integrated solutions—ranging from modules to energy storage and from battery cells to the AC side—the project exemplifies advanced solar-storage integration and intelligent power distribution, setting a new benchmark for the industry.
Driving Green Transformation in Mining Subsidence Areas
Located in a former coal mining subsidence area, the project employs innovative land-use strategies. Its dual approach includes agriculture beneath photovoltaic panels and aquaculture integrated with floating solar installations. The use of Trinasolar's Vertex Series modules effectively reduce the levelized cost of electricity (LCOE), ensuring strong returns for project stakeholders.
Central to the Phase II installation is Trina Storage's Elementa energy storage system, which offers modular design and intelligent safety features tailored to renewable energy applications. Elementa integrates Trina's proprietary battery cells, battery racks, battery management systems (BMS), liquid cooling, and fire safety systems, with optimized for flexibility, easy installation, and efficient maintenance. Advanced safety features—such as pre-warning systems, module-level fire prevention, and water-based fire suppression—ensure the reliable and safe operation of the system throughout its lifecycle.
Enhancing Grid Stability and Renewable Energy Utilization
The project's energy storage system plays a crucial role in solar-storage coordinated management. By utilizing peak shaving and valley filling capabilities, the system mitigates photovoltaic power curtailment, improving overall station utilization. Additionally, the energy storage station can respond to grid dispatch needs, providing services such as frequency regulation to enhance grid stability. Through intelligent power distribution, the system optimally coordinates PV generation and energy storage, maximizing renewable energy usage while ensuring a stable power supply for critical loads.
The integrated fishery-photovoltaic-energy storage model represents Trinasolar's commitment to advancing the fusion of green agriculture and renewable energy, while continuously deepening solar-storage coordination technology to provide users with multi-scenario solar-storage integration solutions.
