Recently, in an exclusive interview with investors, Gao Jifan, Chairman and General Manager of Trina Solar (SH:688599), stated that the North American market is currently a core region experiencing a surge in electricity demand driven by artificial intelligence data centers (AIDC) and high-end manufacturing. As AI technology advances and global industries upgrade, these regions have unprecedentedly high demands for stable, clean, and efficient energy solutions, creating significant market opportunities for the energy storage industry. Since the beginning of this year, Trina Storage, leveraging its full-stack capabilities in R&D, production, and delivery—from battery cells to DC containers and AC-side systems—has continued to expand its business globally. In the North American market, supported by localized services and customized solutions, the company’s energy storage shipments are projected to exceed 1 GWh in 2025. Looking ahead, Trina will continue to advance product and technology iterations, deepen regional market penetration, and expand application boundaries, offering integrated solar-storage smart energy solutions for emerging scenarios such as green data centers, green hydrogen/ammonia/alcohol production, green mining, off-grid islands, and zero-carbon parks, thereby driving the global energy transition.
Gao Jifan also noted that to align with the evolving trends in the global new energy industry and lead the development of integrated solar-storage applications, the company has further optimized its business structure to form a four-dimensional matrix comprising photovoltaic products, energy storage solutions, integrated system solutions, and digital energy services. This initiative aims to deepen its solutions business, establish a second growth curve, and foster new business growth points. By transitioning from a photovoltaic product manufacturer to a comprehensive smart energy solution provider for both photovoltaics and energy storage, Trina Solar is committed to achieving high-quality technological innovation and synergistic ecosystem development.
