      Details     13 November 2018          ![](https://www.gerenciadeedificios.com/images/stories/VDS/users/sjaramillo1/fuji_solar.jpg)*International.* Trina Solar, a leading technology provider of smart solutions for solar energy, reported that a total of 13,176 units of its "SPLITMAX" half-cell modules were installed on farmland with an area of 67,585 square meters owned by 63 people in the city of Gotemba, Shizuoka Prefecture, Japan to build solar plants that, simultaneously, they use the same area for agriculture and power generation.

BCPG Japan Corporation is responsible for the project and owns Gotemba Power Plants 1 and Solar Power 2, at the foot of Mount Fuji, which began operations in April this year. The total power generation capacity of the two plants, which represent the first solar energy sharing plants for BCPG Japan Corporation, will be 4.4 million watts; which is estimated to be equivalent to the energy consumption of approximately 1,100 households. This is one of the largest scales in Japan in solar exchange plants.

All electricity generated will be sold to tokyo Electric Company using the FIT system. On the agricultural side, the "HiSakaki" crop, used for Buddhist shrines and works, was selected as traditional traditional in that area. Approximately, 13,000 seedlings were planted under solar panels and are expected to be harvested and distributed over three years.

"Last year Trina Solar launched its innovative half-cell solution "SPLITMAX", which compared to conventional modules offers the following benefits: optimization in interconnection, reduction in resistance loss, increase in current flow by increasing the space between cells, resulting in an effective increase in power output. Another advantage is the improvement of the temperature coefficient that generates greater output power under high temperature conditions. The excellent performance of the "SPLITMAX" modules is a good solution for our customers," said Engineer Andrea Pérez de Ramer, Director of Marketing and Communications for Latin America and the Caribbean at Trina Solar.
