This compares favourably to the carbon emissions of 1,500kg/kW for a "standard" solar cell, estimated by the Renewable Energy Hub UK in January of this year. Trina Solar also highlighted that its Vertex N 625W series is the first n-type medium-format module to achieve CFP certification since it standardised the size of its rectangular silicon wafer modules last July. "Trina Solar is continuously improving its environmental, social and governance (ESG) structure," said Zhao Jinqiang, president of Trina Solar's cell and module business unit. "The ESG committee at corporate-level will provide guidance for corporate strategy, products, low-carbon management, labour rights and sustainable procurement." Trina Solar has made ESG compliance a priority recently, winning the Bloomberg Green ESG-Enterprises award and earning a spot on the Forbes China ESG 50 list.
