Founded in 2017 as a merger between Grupo Clavijo and MFV Solar, Nclave specialises in the design, manufacturing, installation and maintenance of fixed tilts and solar trackers. To date, it has developed more than 5GW of projects and has a pipeline of more than 2GW.

Trina said the deal represents an “important strategic development” that will boost its competitiveness. Wu Qun, secretary of the Trina Solar board, added the combination of the two companies’ technologies will enhance Trina’s one-stop solutions as well as the efficiency of its tracker products.
