Solar panel manufacturer Trina Solar has joined hands by way of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) Solar Juice, an Australian solar distributor. The MoU will pave the way or Solar Juice to procure 1 GW of Trina Solar Vertex modules across a span of three years.

Trina Solar will bring its Vertex N modules for residential and commercial projects into the Australian market. These modules entail the Vertex S+ NEG9R.28 and NEG9RC.27 (450W+ mono-facial modules) that have been designed for residential application. The Vertex NEG18R.28 (a 500W+ n-type i-TOPCon dual-glass module) are tailored specially for the commercial and industrial segment.

Trina Solar has had presence in the Australian market since 2011.

The firm’s Vertex S+ dual-glass module series are integrated with 210mm rectangular silicon wafer (210R) cells. They also boast n-type iTOPCon technology.

The announcement of this 1 GW partnership follows shortly after Trina Solar signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with wholesale distributor, Marubeni Australia, to supply 1.5 GW of Vertex N solar modules to the Oceania region over a five-year period. Previously, Trina Solar also joined hands with Australian firm MPower to supply solar panels and trackers. Trina Solar will supply Vertex N bifacial module with iTOPCon (NEG21C.20) and the Vertex bifacial module (DEG21C.20) to the firm.

Australia’s solar landscape is witnessing an expansion in demand in the commercial and industrial sector. Australia’s installed solar capacity stood at 30 GW when 2022 ended. 2022 was also the first time when the rooftop installations in the Australian market in the commercial & industrial segment took over the installations in residential rooftop segment with 1.47 GW and 1.35 GW of installations respectively.
