The US Department of Commerce has found that five Chinese solar PV manufacturers have been circumventing its import tariffs by relocating minor portions of their supply chains to Southeast Asia.
Chinese solar PV company Trina Solar has supplied 140MW of its Vertex dual-glass bifacial modules to French renewable power company Voltalia for a solar PV project in Albania.
Trina Solar has produced the first of its 210mm n-type i-TOPCon cells at its production facility in Qinghai province, China, as the scale of n-type solar production continues to ramp up across the industry.
Trina Solar will continue the shift from producing p-type to n-type products, while it aims to base its manufacturing and operations purely on renewable energy by 2030.
Aquila Clean Energy EMEA – the European renewables platform from Aquila Group – has signed an 800MW PV module supply deal with Trina Solar for Aquila’s project pipeline in Southern Europe.
