Trina Solar Announces Restructuring of System Business Unit

Trina Solar Limited

today announced restructuring in its system business unit ("SBU"). The change is designed to reflect the Company's strategy and ambitions to become a first-tier global player in the downstream business. Trina Solar's SBU will be split into two separate units: a China SBU and an international SBU. The China SBU will focus on ground-mounted PV power plants in China, including development and sales, engineering procurement construction ("EPC"), and operation & maintenance ("O&M"), and the international SBU will focus on developing PV power plants in key international markets. Following the resignation of Mr. Qi Lin, formerly Company vice president and head of SBU, the Company has appointed Mr. Jiqing Gao, Company vice president, as the head of the China SBU, effectively immediately. He will report directly to Mr. Jifan Gao, Chairman and CEO of Trina Solar. Mr. Jiqing Gao has been the vice president of Trina Solar's SBU since October 2013. Previously, he was the Company's vice president of the China and Asia Pacific (excluding China), Middle East and Africa SBU from November 2012 to September 2013. Mr.
