The Belgian-European pavilion will feature a 160kW integrated solar system, which comprises approximately 690 of Trina Solar’s modules and covers an area of 1,200sqmt. The system is expected to generate approximately 116,000kWh of electricity and displace approximately 39 tons of coal consumption and 87 tons of carbon emissions per year.
Jifan Gao, chairman and CEO of Trina Solar, said: “We are delighted that Enfinity and the Belgian Government have selected Trina Solar to supply our high quality modules for their two prestigious pavilions and are using clean energy to reinforce the Shanghai Expo theme of ‘Better City, Better Life’. Adoption of solar PV is a perfect solution for inner city sustainable renewable energy which will make an increasing contribution to the quality of life in cities going forward.”
Van Neer, CEO of Enfinity Asia Pacific, said: “Enfinity is happy to work together with Trina Solar to provide solar PV solutions for the Belgian-European Pavilion. The Shanghai World Expo is an excellent opportunity for people from all over the world to be introduced to and learn more about the value of solar and renewable energy. This partnership with the Belgian-European Pavilion will bring Enfinity an interesting worldwide exposure and it will help us in further developing our activities on the Asian continent.”
