The integrated solar storage project in Rizhao, Shandong, has officially commenced operation! Rizhao Easy Tool has partnered with Trina Solar to explore innovative solar storage and charging solutions.
Located in the Yijie Tool Park in Wulian County, Rizhao, the “solar-storage-charging integration” project, developed in collaboration with Trina Solar and Zhongke Huachen, has been put into operation. The project features Trina Solar’s Supreme photovoltaic modules installed on the rooftops of the factory, combined with Trina Storage’s efficient commercial energy storage cabinets, the Potentia Blue Ocean system, and electric vehicle charging facilities. This comprehensive energy system integrates photovoltaic power generation, energy storage regulation, and charging services, enhancing the efficient use of energy and promoting low-carbon management in the Rizhao Easy Tool Park, making it a remarkable case of low-carbon transformation in the industrial sector.
Generating Power with a Hexagonal Warrior
The “solar armor,” composed of Trina Solar’s Supreme series products, continuously generates green power on the rooftops of the Rizhao Easy Tool factory. Notably, the Supreme N-type ultra-high-power module stands out as the “hexagonal warrior” of the photovoltaic industry, boasting superior installation flexibility, electrical compatibility, and impressive low-irradiation performance. This module excels in complex scenarios and delivers higher output per watt, resulting in reduced cost per kilowatt-hour. When paired with Huawei inverters, it creates a highly efficient and stable power generation system.
Energy Storage Synergy: Redefining Solar-Storage Integration
As Trina Solar’s flagship product, the Vertex Supreme N-type component significantly enhances system energy yield with its high conversion efficiency, low degradation characteristics, and high bifacial rate. Coupled with Trina’s self-developed 215kWh energy storage system, which achieves efficient integration and intelligent scheduling from cell to battery pack, the project effectively addresses power fluctuations for commercial use, lowers electricity costs, and propels the park closer to its “zero-carbon factory” goal. Moreover, Trina Solar’s innovative solar-storage collaborative management system deeply integrates solar and storage technologies, enabling dynamic power allocation and optimized energy storage scheduling through a smart energy platform. This provides a closed-loop solution for “generation-storage-charging-load,” fully meeting diverse needs such as production, energy storage, and electric vehicle charging.
Calculating Economic Benefits for a Sustainable Future
Since 2023, the gap between peak and valley electricity prices has widened, highlighting the economic advantages of commercial energy storage as the electricity market undergoes reform. Many industrial enterprises, especially energy-intensive manufacturing sectors, are increasingly keen on energy storage solutions. The integration of “solar-storage-charging” combines clean energy with practical applications, allowing for mutual support among photovoltaic systems, energy storage, and charging stations. The project manager at Rizhao Easy Tool recognized the economic potential of this integration. The calculations are clear: as a tool manufacturing facility, electricity costs represent a significant expenditure. After implementing the solar-storage-charging project, the annual power generation exceeds 1.3 million kilowatt-hours, yielding nearly one million yuan in annual revenue—an appealing return even surpassing some investment products!
Furthermore, as a “green factory,” the project’s energy-saving and emissions-reduction benefits are substantial, equivalent to saving 468 tons of standard coal annually. This positions the factory as a living advertisement for low-carbon transformation in the industry and is advantageous for reducing carbon tariffs on exports. Looking ahead, as the carbon trading market matures, the annual CO₂ reduction of nearly 1,300 tons will become a new “green asset” for the enterprise.
Zhongke Huachen, as the project operator, has demonstrated robust capabilities in providing end-to-end services, facilitating efficient project execution. Trina Solar’s leading technological expertise and contextual solutions assist enterprises in achieving green and low-carbon development. This dual approach of “technology plus service” is the key to the solar-storage-charging project becoming a model for clean energy application in the region.
Each kilowatt-hour of electricity carries the fingerprint of sunlight, and every energy conversion is a lyrical expression of light and shadow. Together, Rizhao Easy Tool, Zhongke Huachen, and Trina Solar are crafting one of the most compelling green narratives of our time—when factory rooftops begin to harness sunlight and the pulse of industry synchronizes with nature’s breath, we hear the ecological rhythm of sustainable development.
