China’s Trina Photo voltaic has launched two new collection of merchandise that includes an N-TOPCon configuration.
It designed the Vertex N line industrial, industrial, and utility-scale purposes, and the Vertex S+ line for residential rooftop PV programs. The 2 merchandise had been just lately launched on the RE+ convention in Anaheim, California.
Trina Photo voltaic Advertising Supervisor Melissa Cavanagh instructed pv journal that it’s going to quickly solely produce TOPcon modules. The corporate mentioned it’s also mulling the potential to arrange manufacturing capacity in the United States now that the Inflation Discount Act has been handed. The act packs in quite a few incentives for photo voltaic manufacturing at each leg of the module provide chain, in addition to balance-of-system parts.
The Vertex N is a 210Rmm N-TOPCon module with a most output of 595 W. It has a bifaciality issue of 80%, up from the 70% that conventional polysilicon photo voltaic cells produce.
The Vertex S+ is a 430 W module designed for residential rooftop purposes. It has a max effectivity of 21.9%. The module includes a light-weight dual-glass design for enhanced security, lifespan, and sturdiness.
The product is backed by a 25-year product guarantee and a most annual degradation of 0.4%. S+ consists of all Vertex collection applied sciences reminiscent of 210 mm multi-busbar triple-cut cells, non-destructive cell chopping and high-density interconnection for low voltage and most string energy.
TOPCon (tunnel oxide passivated contacts) photo voltaic modules are a spotlight for Trina as they supply larger effectivity, decrease degradation, and a greater temperature coefficient when in comparison with standard modules.
“TOPCon shouldn’t be new to Trina, we constructed our first pilot challenge 4 years in the past – a 400 MW photo voltaic plant below China’s Prime Runner program,” Helena Li, president of the corporate’s world cell and module enterprise, instructed pv journal Smarter E occasion in Munich, Germany. “We utilized our personal n-type TOPCon know-how in that challenge, however once we constructed that clients weren’t prepared to purchase these merchandise, as costs had been too excessive, though we had a manufacturing line of a sure measurement. Nevertheless, we constructed on this expertise for our present strategy.”
