According to Adele Zhao, Head of Product Solution & Marketing Europe at Trina Solar, 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. She made the comment as she delivered a keynote speech ata technology conference in 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-TOPContechnology and achieved another increase in cell efficiency of 0.3% through laser induced firing. The upgraded Vertex N 720W+ modules can reach an efficiency of 23.2%, while the smaller version Vertex N 625W+ modules have a module efficiency of up to 23.1%.
As an outstanding member of the Vertex N product portfolio, the Vertex N 720W+series module offers the lowest LCOE for utility-scale ground-mounted solar farmswith level terrain, with its low voltage feature for high string power and thus lowsystem cost.
Vertex N 625W+ modules, suitable for small and medium sized ground-mounted solar farms, particularly with complex terrain or irregular shape, offer high flexibility in system design and are highly compatible with tracking systems. The Vertex N 625W+module is 2,382mm by 1,134mm in size, designed by Trina Solar and now adopted by industry peers as a standard module configuration.
After an initiative to standardise 700W+ module dimensions and upgrading the Photovoltaic Open Innovation Ecological Alliance, propelled by Trina Solar at the end of 2023, the Vertex N 720W+ series products are empowering the company to lead the industry further into the 700W+ era.
Trina Solar continues to push the industry toward industrialising 700W+ PV modules by promoting 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 andsolutions.
