Trinasolar strengthens partnership with MaxSolar with Vertex N G3 supply agreement

September 10, 2026
Trinasolar, a global leader in smart PV and energy storage solutions, will supply its latest Vertex N G3 modules to MaxSolar, a holistic renewable energy infrastructure developer and operator, for five solar projects in Germany.
The agreement expands the companies’ existing cooperation and marks MaxSolar’s transition to Trinasolar’s latest generation of utility-scale module technology.

Under the agreement, Trinasolar will supply 74MW of its Vertex N G3 dual-glass n-type modules (NEG19RC.20Q) across the five projects. Deliveries are scheduled to take place during Q4 2026.

Vertex N G3 supporting long-term project performance

Vertex N G3 combines high power output and strong energy yield with long-term reliability, supporting the performance and economics of utility-scale solar projects. Based on Trinasolar’s third-generation n-type i-TOPCon Ultra cell technology, the platform introduces a quarter-cut cell design, evolving from the half-cut architecture of previous module generations. By reducing current flow and electrical resistance within the module, the quarter-cut design helps minimise power losses and improve thermal performance, contributing to module efficiencies of up to 24.8%.

The modules also offer 85% bifaciality and are designed to deliver strong performance across a broad range of operating conditions, including low-irradiance and high-temperature environments. An optimised temperature coefficient of -0.26%/°C supports energy generation as module temperatures rise and can deliver up to 1.55% more power than mainstream modules at peak operating temperatures.

“The requirements for modern renewable energy infrastructure are evolving rapidly. As a manufacturer-neutral infrastructure developer, we choose technologies that best meet the technical and commercial requirements of each project. Our portfolio ranges from conventional ground-mounted solar parks and tracker-based applications to increasingly integrated hybrid projects that combine solar generation with battery storage. Trinasolar has proven to be a reliable module partner over the years, combining technological innovation with strong product quality and bankability. We are pleased to further expand our cooperation through the deployment of the latest Vertex N G3 modules,” said David Butz, COO of MaxSolar GmbH.

Long-term performance and reliability are also central to the Vertex N G3 value proposition. The modules feature an ultra-low annual degradation rate of 0.35% and are backed by a 30-year power warranty, supporting predictable energy yields over the lifetime of the solar assets.

This long-term performance is complemented by Trinasolar’s established bankability, financial strength and more than 20 years of presence in Europe, providing additional confidence for project financing and long-term asset performance.

“We are very pleased to build on our established relationship with MaxSolar as they transition to our latest Vertex N G3 technology,” said Gonzalo de la Viña, President of Trinasolar Europe and Latin America & Caribbean. “This agreement reflects our shared focus on delivering high-performing, reliable solar projects with strong long-term value. By combining advanced module technology with our strong experience and capabilities in the European utility-scale market, we look forward to supporting MaxSolar across these projects and further strengthening our cooperation in Germany.”

Supporting Germany’s utility-scale solar expansion
The latest agreement builds on an established relationship between MaxSolar and Trinasolar. To date, MaxSolar has purchased a total capacity of 1.55 GW from Trinasolar over the past 5 years.

The five projects will contribute to the continued expansion of utility-scale solar generation in Germany. The collaboration brings together MaxSolar’s project development and infrastructure expertise with Trinasolar’s latest-generation module technology to support the delivery of high-performing, reliable and cost-competitive solar assets.

Trina Solar modules are being deployed across a growing portfolio of at least five PV projects in Germany, with a particular focus on southern regions. The projects are at different stages of development and implementation, with module allocations being adjusted as planning progresses. The portfolio supports the continued delivery of renewable energy infrastructure across the region.
