Trina Solar, a global leader in smart PV and energy storage solutions, has unveiled upgrades to its Vertex N family of modules.

N-type modules using i-TOPCon technology will dominate global production this year, and high-power modules such as the Vertex N 720W series will lead the way in the 700W+ era, says Adele Zhao, head of EU Product Solution & Marketing at Trina Solar. She made the comment as she delivered a keynote speech at a technology conference on March 2024.

Based on the industry-leading 210mm product technology platform and with n-type i-TOPCon Advanced technology innovation, Trina Solar has upgraded its i-TOPCon technology and achieved another increase in cell efficiency of 0.3% through laser induced firing, thus upgrading its 210mm n-type scenario-based solutions. The upgraded Vertex N 720W modules have efficiency of 23.2%, Vertex N 625W modules have efficiency up to 23.1%, and Vertex S+ 455W modules have efficiency up to 22.8%.

As an outstanding member of the Vertex N portfolios, the Vertex N 720W series modules, a star in ground-mounted power stations, offer lower LCOE and BOS cost with low-voltage, high-power, ultra-low degradation, high bifaciality and higher string power. Vertex N 720W series modules have been used in many different settings for great reliability, especially in rugged conditions, such as in high-altitude areas and vast desert regions.

Vertex N 625W modules, suitable for small and medium-sized ground-mounted solar farms, especially with complex terrain or irregular shape, offer high flexibility in system design and highly compatibility with tracking system. The Vertex N 625W module is 2382mm by 1134mm, whose dimensions promoted by Trina Solar and now adopted in the industry.

The Vertex S+ 455W modules, based on 210mm rectangular silicon wafer (210R) cell technology with n-type i-TOPCon Advanced technology, offer a high-powered yet compact solution dedicated to residential solar applications. 

After an initiative to standardize 700W+ module dimensions and upgrading the Photovoltaic Open Innovation Ecological Alliance propelled by Trina Solar at the end of last year, the Vertex N 720W series products are empowering the company to lead the industry into the 700W+ era further.

Trina Solar continues to push the industry toward industrializing 700W+ PV modules by promoting the industrialization of ultra-high-power and ultra-high-efficiency modules. The company will continue to innovate with its mainstream n-type i-TOPCon technology and products, offering greater customer value with advanced technology, reliable products and solutions.
