Trinasolar, a global leader in smart PV and energy storage solutions, has significantly accelerated its presence in Saudi Arabia by forging strategic collaborations with ACWA Power, aiming to support large-scale renewable energy projects and contribute to the Kingdom’s sustainable energy transition.

Trinasolar is supplying its high-efficiency Vertex N modules (NEG19RC.20) to the 1.15GW Haden Solar PV Independent Power Plant, a flagship PIF4 project developed by ACWA Power and executed by China Energy International Group.

Set for completion in July 2026 and grid connection in February 2027, the project is one of the largest solar initiatives currently underway in the Kingdom.

Module deliveries began in late 2024. Built for high-temperature environments, the Vertex N features bifacial technology, a high-density layout, and multi-busbar design, delivering up to 23.3 percent efficiency and reliable output in Saudi Arabia’s demanding desert climate.

Under Saudi Arabia’s National Renewable Energy Program, Trinasolar is supplying 900MW of its Vanguard 1P smart trackers to the Al Khushaybi PV Project, one of three solar developments led by ACWA Power. This marks Trinasolar’s first local content–compliant tracker deployment in the Kingdom.

TrinaTracker’s Jeddah manufacturing facility is now fully operational, supplying Tracker Control Units (TCUs) to the PIF4 project. The milestone underscores Trinasolar’s role in advancing Vision 2030 by localizing production, boosting supply chain efficiency, and supporting the national renewable energy ecosystem.

Designed for high-heat, high-wind, and sandy environments, the Vanguard 1P system delivers stable, efficient performance. Tracker deliveries were completed in just five months, keeping the project on schedule, with execution managed through a hybrid remote and on-site model for seamless coordination.
