天合光能预计给澳大利亚昆士兰大学的圣露西亚布里斯班的校舍供应光伏模块,将会提供1.2兆瓦的太阳能系统,这会安装在该大学4所建筑的屋顶。
Ingenero公司将开发该太阳能系统,这是一家可再生能源公司专门从事太阳能电力的。大规模的安装将给昆士兰大学提供能源清洁绿色的环境,同时这也是一个能让想要研究数组排布的学生和教工与天合光能合作,一起开发新一代太阳能技术的一个资源。
天合光能也希望共同努力,与昆士兰大学一道把尖端的太阳能技术的几个研究项目向前推进。昆士兰州政府正在为太阳能光伏项目的筹款,想要从150万澳元增长到775万澳元而努力,也将采用1.2兆瓦光伏安装,并将于今年能够生产1,750兆瓦时电力。
“澳大利亚太阳能市场的潜力巨大并很高兴能成为昆士兰大学重要安装项目的合作伙伴,天合光能亚太销售总监说。 “我们很荣幸能在澳大利亚提供最大和最强大的屋顶太阳能电池板模块,我们相信,这标志着澳大利亚太阳能大规模发展的开始,并且会有一个有前途的未来。“
Trina Solar is expected to supply PV modules to the University of Queensland St Lucia campus in Brisbane, Australia, to be used for a 1.2 MW solar system which will be installed on the rooftops of four university buildings.
The solar system will be developed by Ingenero, a renewable energy company specializing in solar power. The large-scale installation will provide UQ with a significant source of clean green energy and is expected to be a resource for students and staff, who will study the array's performance and collaborate with Trina Solar as part of the University's drive to help develop next-generation solar technologies.
Trina Solar also expects to work together with UQ on several cutting edge solar technology research projects going forward. The Queensland Government is contributing a grant of AUD1.5 million towards the AUD7.75 million project, which will feature the 1.2 MW solar PV installation, and will be capable of producing 1,750 MWh of electricity a year.
"The Australian solar market has enormous potential and Trina Solar is pleased to be selected by The University of Queensland to be a partner in this significant project installation," said Ku Jun Heong, Director of Sales and Marketing Asia Pacific. "We are proud to be supplying modules to the largest and most powerful rooftop solar arrays in Australia and we believe this marks the beginning of a promising future for large-scale solar energy in Australia."
"The UQ solar power installation represents the leading edge of commercial and industrial scale solar energy in Australia. The University will substantially reduce its carbon footprint and provide an excellent learning facility for the future leaders in the renewable energy industry," said Ingenero CEO Steve McRae.
Professor Paul Meredith, who leads the research project at the University of Queensland said: "Not only is this array a significant piece of energy infrastructure for UQ, but it also represents a globally leading research and teaching facility. Our objective is to integrate the array into everyday business across UQ and also provide the community, industry and government with vital information on how to deploy and optimize solar energy systems at this scale. We are looking forward to building productive and expansive research partnerships with Ingenero and Trina Solar."
