Trina Solar Sets Record for Solar Module Efficiency
China’s Trina Solar has achieved a new world record for solar module conversion efficiency, the company announced. Its large surface area n-type fully passivated heterojunction (HJT) modules reached an efficiency of 25.44% in laboratory tests, as verified by Germany's Fraunhofer CalLab, a leading solar research organization. Passivation technology, which minimizes surface defects in solar cells, enhances energy conversion. Improved efficiency allows for smaller installations and reduced costs, making solar energy more accessible. Professor Martin Green from the University of New South Wales ..
