28 Jul 2022 CW Team

Since 2010, Trina Solar has supplied PV projects in all three market segments—residential, commercial, industrial, and utility—with more than 8 GW of solar modules.

“Solar modules for commercial and industrial (C&I) businesses accounted for 60% of Trina Solar’s shipments to India last year and in 2022’s first quarter, while about 40% of shipments were for utility -scale projects,” says Gaurav Mathur, India director for Trina Solar.

Trina Solar's being an early mover into India has certainly helped, as that has aided both brand recognition and establishing a strong selling base in India. The firm has been followed into India by other leading China based majors, from Jinko to Longi and many more.

Mathur says Trina Solar shipment volume in the first quarter of 2022 is at historic highs.

“We are positioned in India as a high-quality brand of module known for its high standard of after-sales service,” says Mathur.

“We have strong customer relationships,” he says, adding that the majority of the sales and customer support team have been with Trina Solar for more than seven years.

He says: “India is moving toward higher power, higher efficiency modules; the type of modules that Trina Solar is renowned for because of its reputation for technological innovation.”

“Our bestselling modules last year were the Vertex 540W and Vertex 550W modules. We have now started selling our Vertex 670W module, which is proving very popular.” The Vertex 670W module, which has an efficiency of up to 21.6%, and is among the highest power wattages offered in the market currently.

The module also incorporates market-leading technology such as 210 mm solar cells, non-destructive cutting, high density connectivity, and multi-busbar (MBB). A fundamental benefit of the module's design is its low voltage, high string power.

Trina Solar was established in 1997 and specializes in the R&D, production, and sale of PV products as well as engineering, procurement, and maintenance of PV projects; creation and sale of smart microgrids and many complementary energy systems; and management of energy cloud platformsTrina Solar introduced its Enerfy IoT brand in 2018, built the New Energy IoT Industrial Innovation Center, and formed the Trina Energy IoT Industrial Development Alliance with major businesses and research institutions in China and around the world.
