Trina Solar has launched its integrated PV and energy storage systems at the 16th International Photovoltaic Power Generation and Smart Energy Conference and Exhibition.

Held at the Shanghai New International Expo Centre from 23 to 26 May, the event saw Trina Solar unveil its latest generation 210mm Vertex n-type products of 695W, 605W and 450W, p-type Vertex 670W, TrinaTracker Vanguard 2P solution, energy storage systems and other all-in-one smart energy solutions. All these products demonstrate the company’s commitment to leading the way in smart solar energy solutions for a net-zero future.

In addition, Trina Solar launched its advanced n-type i-TOPCon technology at the show. New products featuring state-of-the-art HJT and iBC technologies were also on display. Trina’s booth attracted thousands of visitors from Europe, North America, Latin America and the Asia-Pacific region.

Trina Solar’s 210mm n-type scenario-based solutions are tailored to operate in a wide range of settings, with lower BOS costs and LCOE to maximise customer value.

Trina Solar unveils its n-type i-TOPCon Advanced technology

Trina Solar has continued to innovate with the global launch of its n-type i-TOPCon technology with cell efficiency reaching 26% and module output power 700W+.

Trina Solar has expanded its technical expertise in areas such as iBC and HJT. At SNEC, the company debuted its HJT PV modules with a maximum power output of 730W+ and efficiency of 23.5%, which can increase power generation by 4-8%. SMBB combined with high-density encapsulation enables the modules to achieve zero cutting loss and an ultra-low carbon footprint 30% lower than PERC.

Also unveiled were iBC PV modules with a maximum power output of 480W+ and maximum efficiency of 24%. The modules, with an all-back contact and full passivation contact design, have non-front finger shading, presenting a perfect appearance and providing customers with the ultimate aesthetic experience.

Trina Storage’s Elementa for integrating PV and energy storage system

Focusing on the integration of PV systems and energy storage, Trina Storage presented its leading products at the show which including the 306Ah Trina cell with more than 12,000 life cycles, the Trina Storage Elementa liquid cooling system, with a longer system lifetime in excess of 10,000 cycles and residential energy storage products as well as its power conversion system.

Trina Storage also unveiled next-generation solutions for integrating PV systems and energy storage, demonstrating trends in technology applied to high-temperature lithium-ion battery energy storage systems without air conditioning.

Upgraded trackers for more adaptability

The next-generation Vanguard 2P that was on display, with its multi-motor control system, is safer, more reliable, and easier to install than traditional mechanical drives. The tracker can be adapted to more complex application settings, reducing LCOE and improving customer ROI.

The new POM-polymer composites used in the spherical bearing have high wear resistance and high rigidity, resulting in fatigue life of up to 25 years. The external raw materials used to manufacture the new Vanguard 2P are subjected to quality control in salt spray and to a cyclic corrosion test to ensure they are corrosion resistant in mudflats and coastal areas. Its water-resistant and dust-proof level also reaches to IP65 or above.
