Trina Solar prioritizes improvement in brand, technology and cost

BEIJING, Dec 01, 2008 (Xinhua via COMTEX News Network) -- ?? Brand, technology and production cost will highlight the future strategy of Trina Solar Limited (TSL.NYSE) which is working on building leadership in solar energy industry, said Zhou Xiyuan, chief executive officer of Trina Solar.

Zhou said that industry leadership depends on advantages in corporate culture, financial planning, management, industrial scale, and technology in light of anticipated industry reshuffling.

By now, Trina Solar has no specific plans to invest in thin-film solar cell, but has one team making continuous assessment on technological and economic feasibility, according to Zhou.

Trina Solar expects to complete 350 MW of production capacity in the end of 2008 and bring the overall production capacity to 500 MW in the second quarter of next year when the new plant, under construction now, is put into mass production.
