{"id":888,"count":5,"description":"<strong>Trina Solar<\/strong> It is one of the world\u2019s five largest manufacturers of photovoltaic modules. Founded in 1997 in Changzhou, it has accumulated more than 200 GW of installed capacity across over 100 countries and has been a Bloomberg Tier 1 company since 2013. In Spain, it is one of the brands most frequently installed by professional installers, thanks to its balance of efficiency, price and the strength of its warranty.\n\nAt FV Componentes, we stock the current range <strong>n-type TOPCon<\/strong>, in stock in Spain with delivery within 24\u201348 hours.\r\n<h2>Which Trina solar panels do we have in our catalogue?<\/h2>\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li><strong>Trina 455W Vertex S+ NEG9R.25 Full Black:<\/strong> Compact residential design with an all-black finish, for exposed roofs.<\/li>\r\n \t<li><strong>Trina 465W Vertex S+ NEG9R.28:<\/strong> the same residential design with slightly more power per module.<\/li>\r\n \t<li><strong>Trina 515W TSM-NEG18R.28:<\/strong> medium-sized, offering a good balance between power and manoeuvrability.<\/li>\r\n \t<li><strong>Trina 640W NEG19RC.20:<\/strong> large-format roofing for commercial and industrial buildings.<\/li>\r\n \t<li><strong>Trina 730W NEG21C.20U:<\/strong> the most powerful module in the range, for ground-mounted and large rooftop installations.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<h2>What does it mean for a Trina panel to be n-type TOPCon?<\/h2>\r\nTOPCon (<em>Tunnel Oxide Passivated Contact<\/em>) adds an ultra-thin layer of oxide and doped silicon to the rear surface of the cell, which reduces carrier recombination at the contact. On a silicon substrate <strong>n-type<\/strong>, which translates into three measurable advantages over the previous-generation p-type PERC: higher cell efficiency, <strong>most favourable temperature coefficient<\/strong> and lower annual degradation, as well as being unaffected by the LID effect.\n\nThe difference is particularly noticeable in summer: when the cell reaches 65 \u00b0C, a module with a better thermal coefficient delivers several percentage points more output than an equivalent module in terms of nominal power.\r\n<h2>Which Trina panel should I choose for my installation?<\/h2>\r\nFor <strong>residential roofing<\/strong>, the 455 W and 465 W Vertex S+ models: they are smaller, lighter and can be installed by a single person on a pitched roof. The all-black version is the best choice when the roof is visible from the street.\n\nFor <strong>commercial premises or warehouse<\/strong>, the 640 W and 730 W models reduce the number of modules, structures and connections required for the same installed power, which is where time is saved during installation.\r\n\r\nBe careful with large-format modules in residential installations: a 730 W module is over two metres long, and handling it on a sloping roof in windy conditions is awkward and risky.\r\n<h2>Trina or AIKO? Trina or LONGi?<\/h2>\r\n<a href=\"\/en\/brand\/aiko-solar\/\">AIKO<\/a> It leads the way in efficiency per square metre thanks to its ABC back-contact technology, and is the go-to choice when roof space is limited. It costs more per watt.\r\n\r\n<a href=\"\/en\/brand\/solar-longi\/\">LONGi<\/a> and Trina compete in the same TOPCon market, with differences relating more to availability and price than to technology.\n\nOur view: if you have plenty of space, Trina offers the best value for money in terms of price, warranty and manufacturer support. If every square metre counts, it\u2019s worth paying the premium for AIKO.\r\n<h2>What is the warranty on Trina panels?<\/h2>\r\nThe current range offers <strong>product warranty<\/strong> \u2014manufacturing defects\u2014 and <strong>linear performance guarantee<\/strong>, which guarantees a minimum power output for 25\u201330 years. These are two different things that should not be confused: the product warranty covers module failure; the performance warranty covers the module producing less power than promised.\n\nCheck the specifications for each model for the exact number of years, which vary between series.
