Trina Solar has achieved a new record efficiency of 23.56% for 210mm P-type monocrystalline silicon PERC cells, which are already in mass production.

Reports have emerged alleging that US officials have begun detaining solar module shipments suspected of infringing the withhold and release order (WRO) implemented in June.

A 60MW floating solar project installed on a reservoir in Singapore has been connected to the grid and is now in commercial operation.

Trina Solar has achieved a record aperture module efficiency of 23.03% for larger-area industrial silicon p-type modules, the manufacturer said.

PV Tech’s Carrie Xiao provides an extensive overview of the solar modules on display at this year’s SNEC PV Power Expo in Shanghai, comparing all of the major product launches, exhibitions and technologies that took centre stage.

LONGi’s ascent to the top of the solar module shipments league table captured headlines last week, but it also cements the view that consolidation in the sector is inevitable, with an oligarchy of majors dominating market share. Carrie Xiao assesses the prospects of those top five companies as 2021 heats up.

‘Solar Module Super League’ (SMSL) member Trina Solar has reported total module shipments in 2020 of 15,915MW, an increase of over 81% compared to the 8,756MW shipments recorded in 2019.

PV Tech speaks to Franck Zhang, head of global product strategy and market at Trina Solar, to discover the next steps for 210mm modules as power outputs continue to grow.

Trina Solar has added to its Vertex series of next-generation solar modules, launching an ultra-high power 670W version.
