Chinese solar energy products maker Trina Solar will build a 1 million-square-foot-plus solar photovoltaic (PV) manufacturing facility in Wilmer, Texas. Counting both the property and equipment, the project is valued at more than $200 million.
When it’s completed in 2024, the facility reportedly will annually produce 5 GW of PV modules and source polysilicon from the U.S. and Europe. More specifically, the facility will produce Trina’s large power output Vertex modules using 210 mm wafers.
Steven Zhu, president of Trina Solar US, said in a prepared statement that the company has long had a vision to manufacture solar products in the U.S., adding that he has lived in Texas for more than a decade.
