Recently, a number of Trina Solar (stock code: 688599) photovoltaic module products have won the environmental protection double EPD logo of the global safety inspection and certification authority UL and Italy EPD (Environmental Product Declaration, Chinese: environmental Protection Product statement. The licensing ceremony was held in Changzhou, Jiangsu Province on January 13. Cao Bo, Executive Vice President of Trina Solar Energy, and Shi Jun, General Manager of Suzhou UL Meihua Certification Co., Ltd., attended the award ceremony.

As the first solar photovoltaic module manufacturer in the world to pass the EPD mutual recognition mark at the same time, Trina Solar is the global leader in the whole life cycle of photovoltaic products and will continue to practice the road of sustainable development together with global partners.

EPD is an internationally recognized set of environmental reports based on ISO14025 standards, which strictly track and detect the impact of a product on the environment throughout its life cycle, including raw material acquisition stage, manufacturing and processing stage, transportation stage, use stage, scrap stage and so on. EPD logo is different from other product ratings or environmental labels, like a sustainable product "full-process production label", providing customers with authoritative product environmental information.

Trina Solar has always adhered to the commitment of sustainable development and technological innovation, and will fulfill social responsibility as an important concept of corporate sustainable development. At the 2020 people's Corporate Social responsibility Summit Forum and the 15th people's Corporate Social responsibility Award presentation ceremony held in December 2020, Trina Solar won the Green Development Award for its outstanding contribution to sustainable development.

Cao Bo said at the licensing ceremony: "the global EPD logo will continue to promote Trina Solar's environmental innovation." The company is constantly committed to developing more efficient and environmentally friendly solar photovoltaic modules, further resolving the contradiction between technological development and resource consumption, exploring a new way of sustainable development, and looking forward to establishing a cleaner and sustainable energy supply system for the benefit of all mankind with solar energy.

"We are very pleased to see Trina Solar's efforts and achievements in sustainable development." Shi Jun, general manager of Suzhou UL Meihua Certification Co., Ltd., said, "the EPD certificate also bears witness to Trina Solar's commitment to the whole society as a world-renowned photovoltaic enterprise."

Shanxi Kelite to Launch $100M Light Alloy Die-Casting Project in July, Targeting Robotics and EV Markets
[SMM Magnesium Express]Recently, it was reported that Shanxi Kelite Precision Casting Technology Co., Ltd. plans to officially commence production of its light alloy integrated die-casting project in mid-July. With a total investment of 100 million yuan, the project can produce 8 million lightweight robotic precision structural components annually, primarily serving sectors such as meal-delivery robots, household service robots, and new energy vehicles. Leveraging Shanxi's magnesium ore resource advantages, the company has successfully transformed from a traditional pipe-casting enterprise into a high-end precision manufacturing entity. It has introduced cold high-pressure die-casting core technologies and established a provincial-level doctoral entrepreneurship station in collaboration with North University of China. With the project's launch, the large-scale application of magnesium alloy in intelligent robotics and new energy vehicles is expected to deepen further, accelerating the transition of traditional casting enterprises toward high-end magnesium alloy manufacturing.

In June, global scrap tungsten markets diverged. India followed China's tungsten price rally, with active trading and higher prices in mid-June before cooling as China softened. Europe saw low-level consolidation due to high speculative inventories, but prices began to edge up in late June as stocks cleared. China's tungsten market experienced a sharp rebound followed by a pullback, and is expected to consolidate in the near term, while medium-to-long-term fundamentals remain solid.
