'Solar Module Super League' (SMSL) member Trina Solar is intending its initial major solar cell manufacturing expansion over the last few years, driven by its movement to large-area PV modules making use of the 210mm wafer dimension as it ramps manufacturing of its high-performance mainstream 'Vertex' Series modules in 2021 onwards.

The power company has won the race to acquire a 572 MW, 13-project solar plant portfolio owned by Madrid-based, Canadian-U.S.-controlled designer X-Elio.

While mono-grade polysilicon prices did not lower much in the very first quarter owing to steady need, multi-grade was up to record lows as its market share reduced. During the 2nd quarter, composes PV InfoLink elderly analyst Cooper Chen, the marketplace saw extreme supply. Monocrystalline makers have been performing at full tilt and also bringing brand-new capabilities online as set up, while the pandemic crazes on overseas.

China Three Gorges is to get in Spain's solar fray through the acquisition of a 500MW profile from designer X-Elio.

The most recent products in the Vertex series from the Chinese maker, introduced at the SNEC PV Power Expo in Shanghai, are readily available in 6 versions with reported effectiveness ranging from 20.4-21.2%.

Grid scale lith-ion batteries may be increasing Stateside, yet an expected recovery in the assembly line sector will be put on hold up until following year because of the pandemic, according to one expert.
