At this year’s gathering in Cape Town, the company is showcasing its built to endure Africa’s environmental extremes and meet evolving grid challenges.

“As the energy crisis and climate volatility continue to impact South Africa and the broader African region, Trinasolar is focused on delivering real solutions that enable long-term energy security,” “Our high-efficiency PV modules and advanced energy storage systems are engineered to meet the challenging realities on the ground. Through our presence at AEF, we’re reinforcing our commitment to supporting Africa’s transition to a greener, more stable energy future; one built on innovation, resilience, and strategic collaboration.”

The centrepiece of Trinasolar’s exhibition is the debut of the Built with enhanced structural integrity, corrosion-resistant features, and dust protection, the module boasts an industry-leading 55 mm hail resistance rating, more than twice the standard. It is also certified for fire safety and engineered for performance in environments with high levels of salt, ammonia, and sand.

Delivering up to 630W output and 23.3% efficiency, the module incorporates a low-voltage, high-string design, making it compatible with widely used inverters. This configuration reduces system costs and simplifies installation—particularly valuable for commercial and utility-scale projects.

“We’re seeing strong momentum across the region, especially in the commercial, industrial, and utility-scale sectors where innovation and ease of installation matter,” said Zaheer Khan, regional director for South Africa, Trinasolar MEA. “Installers and partners are drawn to solutions like the Vertex N 630W, not just for its performance, but because it addresses real operational challenges in tough environments.

“In just the past year, Trinasolar has delivered over a gigawatt of technology solar equipment in South Africa alone,” Khan added. “It’s a milestone that reflects our growing footprint, trusted relationships, and long-term commitment to the region. And we’re just getting started.”

Trinasolar’s African offering includes solar modules, energy storage, floating PV solutions, and smart tracking systems—developed to meet diverse energy requirements with an emphasis on quality, adaptability, and system integration. With offices in Johannesburg and Cape Town and a Durban-based warehouse maintaining 10–20MW of stock for fast delivery, the company is well-equipped to support project deployment across the region. It is also expanding its commercial presence in key markets including Kenya, Nigeria, Morocco, and others.

Over the last ten years, Trinasolar has helped shape South Africa’s solar sector by supporting large-scale utilities, driving C&I adoption, and contributing to decentralisation and renewable energy growth. As the continent’s transition gathers pace, the company remains committed to scaling integrated systems, building local capacity, and partnering with governments, utilities, and private stakeholders to ensure lasting energy resilience.
