There will be greater development space for PV industry if non-technical costs of PV power plants can be reduced. Meanwhile, by further boosting innovative development with energy storage and hydrogen production, PV smart energy will play a predominant role in the energy system, Gao stated.

According to him, Trina Solar will step up efforts to expand module capacity to over 50GW by the end of 2021, and strive to lead global green development by crafting a world-class enterprise offering solar energy, energy storage, hydrogen and smart energy internet products and solutions during the 14th Five-Year Plan period from 2021 to 2025.
