Trinasolar has announced plans to expand its hybrid solar initiatives across Southeast Asia (SEA) after successfully launching Malaysia’s largest hybrid solar project. The hybrid project is located in Merchang, Terengganu, the 100 MWac project combines 35 MW of floating solar panels with 65 MW of ground-mounted panels, designed to offset 202,024 tonnes of carbon emissions annually.
Furthermore, the plant employs Trinasolar’s Vertex 590-595W bifacial modules, known for their resilience in coastal environments and high efficiency. This technology captures sunlight from both sides of the panels, enhancing energy generation and reducing costs.
In April 2024, Through a master sales agreement (MSA), Trina Solar provided 117 MW of photovoltaic (PV) solar modules for various projects led by Rizal Green Energy Corporation, a subsidiary of PetroGreen. This collaboration aims to help the Philippines reach its target of 35 per cent renewable energy by 2030.
