CHANGZHOU, China, Aug. 26, 2022 /PRNewswire=KYODO JBN/ --

On August 24, Trina Solar announced that its proprietary Vertex high-efficiency

n-type monocrystalline silicon module, based on 66 pcs of 210 mm x 210 mm

high-efficiency n-type i-TOPCon cells, has achieved a record aperture module

efficiency of 24.24% for industrial large-area n-type i-TOPCon modules. This is

independently confirmed by TÜV Nord.

In this March, Trina Solar brought the maximum efficiency of 25.5% for

large-area 210 × 210mm i-TOPCon cells, setting a new world record for

industrial large-area n-type i-TOPCon cell.

Trina Solar's researchers in State Key Laboratory of PV Science and Technology

developed multi-busbar and novel encapsulation technologies, together with

non-destructive laser cutting technology to improve module efficiency. By using

large-area 210mm n-type i-TOPCon cells, they brought the maximum aperture

efficiency of 24.24% for large-area 600W+ modules with an area of 2.807 m2.

"We are very proud to announce the latest achievements developed by our

technical team at the State Key Lab. This is the first time to demonstrate over

24% module aperture efficiency with industrial large-area n-type i-TOPCon

cells," said Dr. Yifeng Chen Yifeng, head of high efficiency cell and module

R&D center, " This is the 25th record that Trina Solar achieved in terms of

cell and module efficiencies. Trina Solar is dedicated in technology innovation

and its transfer to high efficiency products, to create value for our

customers. "

Trina Solar strategically develops n-type products and continues to lead the

next generation of high-efficiency n-type technology to create greater value

for customers. Since taking the lead in realizing the mass production of n-type

modules in 2018, Trina Solar's high-efficiency and high-power n-type modules

have been well recognized by the market and widely used in utility power

stations and C&I power plants.

In order to meet the growing demand for 210+ n-type solar modules, in 2022,

Trina Solar plans 8 GW production capacity of n-type modules, which all based

on Trina Solar's 210+ N technology, best combining high-efficiency of n-type

cells and high reliability of 210 Vertex module, bringing premium green

technology and perfect aesthetic experience to residential customers.
