Gao Jifan, Chairman of Trina Solar: In the next two to three years, the proportion of the company's solution business will increase to more than 50%

On June 10, at the opening ceremony of the SNEC PV+ 18th (2025) International Solar Photovoltaic and Smart Energy (Shanghai) Conference and Exhibition, Trina Solar Chairman and CEO Gao Jifan said that currently more than one-third of the company's business comes from solutions, and this proportion will increase to more than 50% in the next two to three years.

Gao Jifan, Chairman of Trina Solar: The mid- and downstream photovoltaic crystal pulling, slicing, and battery assembly links will be greatly integrated

On June 10, at the 2025 SNEC International Photovoltaic and Energy Storage Conference, Gao Jifan, Chairman and CEO of Trina Solar, said that for the manufacturing industry or the photovoltaic industry, in order to break the internal circulation and cross the cycle, the entire industry has three things to do. The first is industry integration. Silicon materials have now begun to be integrated, and the mid- and downstream crystal pulling, slicing, and battery components will also be integrated. The second is to strictly control production capacity. At this time, no matter what technology, I don’t think it is necessary or allowed to increase any production capacity, and I believe that the relevant national departments will conduct serious investigations. The third is to strengthen intellectual property protection. The number of patents in China’s photovoltaic industry is far ahead in the world. The reason why it has finally become an industry without a threshold is that intellectual property protection is not good.

Trina Solar Chairman Gao Jifan: There is no point in arguing about which technology is better, TOPCon, BC or HJT

On June 10, at the 2025 SNEC International Photovoltaic and Energy Storage Conference, Gao Jifan, Chairman and CEO of Trina Solar, said that a large number of companies are still arguing about whether TOPCon is better, BC is better, or HJT is better. I think it makes no sense. The three N-type technologies are comparable and have some advantages in different scenarios. Moreover, these debates will further mislead some of the current over-investment in the industry. Gao Jifan believes that in the future, with the advent of perovskite stacked cells, it will be the key to the real technology entering a new historical stage. According to him, this year, Trina Solar will build a perovskite pilot production line, and its efficiency will be increased by more than four percentage points based on the efficiency of the original crystalline silicon module. A new era of perovskite integrated batteries has arrived.

Big adjustment! Liu Gesong's fund's first quarter report released

The six funds managed by Liu Gesong, a fund manager under GF Fund, announced their first quarter reports, and they are still focused on new energy vehicles, electronics, lithium batteries, photovoltaics, military industry and other fields. Liu Gesong made a large adjustment in this quarter, and Seres, Yiwei Lithium Energy and North China Huachuang were significantly reduced. At the same time, he increased his holdings in Hong Kong stocks, such as Tencent Holdings, and some funds newly entered stocks such as Trina Solar, Guangdong Hongda and Zhenhua Technology. Liu Gesong believes that the A-share market is still interpreting the logic of technological innovation. Under the guidance of industry self-discipline, policy subsidies, scientific and technological support and other aspects, the fundamentals of the industry will pick up and the market style will shift to performance-driven.

Trina Solar's perovskite crystalline silicon stacking technology breaks world record again

On April 10, Trina Solar's National Key Laboratory of Photovoltaic Science and Technology announced that its perovskite crystalline silicon stacking technology has broken records again. The 210mm large-area perovskite/crystalline silicon two-terminal stacked solar cell independently developed by the laboratory has been independently certified by the third-party testing laboratory (Fraunhofer ISE, CalLab) under the Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energy in Germany, and the highest cell efficiency has reached 31.1%. This has created a new world record for the efficiency of large-area stacked solar cells, and it is also the first time that a cell efficiency of more than 31% has been achieved in a 210mm industrial-grade cell size. This achievement marks a comprehensive breakthrough for Trina Solar in the field of perovskite crystalline silicon stacking technology from cell efficiency to module power.

Qu Xiaohua, founder, chairman and CEO of Canadian Solar, said at the China Solar Storage Original Technology Forum held on February 27 that China's photovoltaic industry has entered the "dark forest" era, and patents have become a weapon for internal circulation. Qu Xiaohua introduced that in the past 24 years, Canadian Solar has accumulated more than 4,000 authorized patents. "We encounter several patent lawsuits initiated by foreign companies every year, and we have never lost a lawsuit." "We oppose photovoltaic companies to engage in malicious competition in the name of patent protection. Canadian Solar hereby promises that it will not, and will not, use litigation as the first means to resolve patent disputes." Qu Xiaohua emphasized. Previously, Trina Solar sued Canadian Solar for patent infringement and claimed more than 1 billion yuan. Canadian Solar has fought back head-on.
