Trina Solar Co., Ltd. ("Trina Solar" or the "Company"), a leading global PV and smart energy total solution provider, will be showing a wide range of innovative products and smart energy solutions at this year’s Intersolar Europe, held in Munich from May 11th-13th. The Company’s European team is expecting to welcome a record number of visitors to the region’s most important solar PV show at its booth A1.370, next to the main entrance. Global launches include a new generation of Trina Solar Vertex S and Vertex rooftop modules; smart TrinaTracker solutions to maximize yield; and high-performance energy storage systems by Trina Storage. Trina Solar is also celebrating its 25th anniversary, showcasing the Company’s evolution from a pure module manufacturer to a global smart energy industry leader with distinct business areas along the solar PV value chain.
In its 25 years in the market, Trina Solar has not only shipped 100GW+ of high-performance solar PV modules and built 5.5GW+ solar projects. Rather, the Company has come quite far in expanding its business into different neighboring fields. This is also reflected in the variety of solar energy solutions on display at this year’s Intersolar Europe.
New rooftop portfolio: Bringing Europe under the Same Roof
As a truly committed leader in the European market, Trina Solar has created a dedicated portfolio of rooftop modules, adapted to regional customers’ needs. The current product range is being upgraded for even more performance while keeping a high degree of compatibility not only with BOS components, but also with local building regulations.
Trina Solar will officially launch its second generation of Vertex S universal rooftop modules, with up to 430W, and the Vertex 580W module for large C&I projects. The new members of the 210mm (G12) family feature innovative cells based on a new generation of 210mm rectangular silicon (G12R) wafers, resulting in higher efficiency and power compared to similar products on the market. Single-module power increases by up to 30W.
Completing the rooftop range is the new Vertex S+ module. The premium solution features a dual-glass design, 210mm n-type Vertex cells and is designed for maximum compatibility as well as easy installation. Vertex S+ comes with an extended 25-year product warranty and 30-year performance warranty.
The new product generation is suitable for all kinds of rooftops. With these newest upgrades, Trina Solar underlines its leadership in residential, commercial, and industrial rooftop application scenarios around the world, but also particularly in the European market.
Bifacial: The new champion of utility-scale systems
Visitors will find the complete range of Vertex dual-glass bifacial modules from 550W to 670W on display, the new standard for reliability and efficiency in utility-scale solar projects for lowest LCOE and maximum yield. Their dual-glass structure represents the most durable module technology and consequently this series features an extended 30-year performance warranty.
Vertex bifacial is a perfect match with Trina Solar’s FixOrigin fixed-tilt mounting system, designed to minimizing the impact of rear-side shading. FixOrigin is fully compatible with ultra-high performance large-format solar modules up to 670W+, with its structural stability having been confirmed in comprehensive wind tunnel tests. It is designed for quick and easy installation while maintaining high flexibility and compatibility with different foundation solutions.
TrinaTracker: Boosting Power Beyond the Horizon
The new Vanguard 1P single-axis tracker series is fully compatible with ultra-high power modules up to 670W+. It adopts the 1P (portrait mounting) single-row design and includes technology advantages for higher reliability, more significant power generation, optimized balance of system (BOS) cost and enhanced adaptability. The product has been subjected to extensive wind tunnel tests, proving the tracker's stability and reliability at high wind speed.
Moreover, TrinaTracker will showcase SuperTrack, a smart tracking algorithm that has been widely applied in many projects and has been independently verified to increase energy yield by up to 8% compared with conventional tracking algorithms, effectively enhancing project returns and unlocking more long-term value. The patented SuperTrack boasts two algorithms: The Smart Tracking Algorithm optimizes energy output in diffuse weather conditions, while the Smart Backtracking Algorithm optimizes yield when shading is caused by installation in irregular terrain.
Trina Storage: New Elementa storage solution
Trina Storage, the battery energy storage solution provider of Trina Solar, will be launching its new product – the all-new Elementa, a flexible, safe, and high-performance Battery Energy Storage Solution (BESS). The modular, smart storage solution is tailored for grid scale installations. Fully integrated and prefabricated with state-of-the-art LFP batteries, liquid-cooled thermal management system, battery management and fire detection & suppression systems, it is optimized for flexibility, smooth installation, and efficient maintenance. Elementa’s standardized design and factory-installed configuration helps reduce installation times by up to 70%, leading to lower CAPEX.
Live product launches at the Trina Solar booth
The brand-new module, tracker and storage solutions will be introduced to the audience and media in a series of live presentations at the Trina Solar booth, particularly on Wednesday May 11. The presentation schedule can be found here: https://live.trinasolar.com/live-events/
Gonzalo de la Viña, Head of Europe at Trina Solar, commented: “We look forward to Intersolar Europe as our most important event in photovoltaics, and that’s why we have brought a big delegation from all over Europe and from all business units. Moreover, this year this trade fair is likely the most important platform worldwide, therefore it is our logical choice for launching our latest products and solutions to the global market.”
De la Viña continued, “Trina Solar has been playing a leading role in the region for more than 15 years already, with 22GW+ shipped to our markets to date. We have created an impressive team of more than 250 employees in all major European markets. Part of our products and solutions have been designed in Europe, for Europe. Our European team stands firm in our mission to foster future-proof power for Europe.”
