On March 5, 2025, Tongwei presented its new TNC 2.0 series modules to the Italian market, including the TNC-G12R 48HC, 54HD, 66HD, and TNC-G12 66HD, at the KEY ENERGY, an international renewable energy expo in Italy. The TNC 2.0 series, featuring several groundbreaking technologies, boasts industry-leading module power and efficiency, positioning it as a key solution for Europe's energy transition.

Italian Market Outlook: Opportunities and Value of Tongwei TNC 2.0

According to PV Tech, Italy's new PV installed capacity is projected to exceed 8GW in 2025, driven by the European Green Deal and the Italian government's enhanced renewable energy targets. Large-scale ground-mounted power stations will account for over 60% of this capacity, with steady growth in commercial and industrial projects, and a gradual recovery in the residential market, which still holds significant importance.

The structural growth of the Italian PV market, particularly the expansion of large-scale ground-mounted power stations and the steady development of commercial and industrial applications, demands higher performance from PV modules: increased power output to reduce land costs, enhanced environmental adaptability to withstand the Mediterranean climate, and a more flexible product portfolio to meet diverse application needs. Only products with stable, high yields can create greater value for customers and more accurately meet the needs of the local market.

Powered by TNC 2.0 technology, the TNC-G12 series achieves a maximum power output exceeding 765W and module efficiency up to 24.6%; the TNC-G12R series reaches a maximum power of 670W and module efficiency of 24.8%. The TNC 2.0 high-efficiency modules provide robust, long-term revenue assurance for Italy's diverse needs, thanks to their superior efficiency, outstanding reliability, and excellent degradation control.

TNC 2.0 Technological Innovation: Four Core Processes Driving Efficiency Gains

TNC 2.0 achieves a comprehensive breakthrough in module performance through the deep integration of EPT edge passivation technology, screen printing process, 908 technology, and Poly Tech technology, providing tailored solutions for the Italian market.

Compared to traditional soldering techniques, the 908 technology employs a low-temperature soldering process to mitigate the risk of cell subfissures. It also utilizes a fully open structure, facilitating smoother paste flow through the screen and resulting in more uniform and flatter grid lines, thereby optimizing the morphology of the cell grid lines and enhancing electrical performance. By utilizing optimized passivation materials to treat the laser-cut sides of the cells, the damage to the passivation layer and lattice defects after cell fragmentation are repaired, effectively reducing recombination centers and improving cell performance. Simultaneously, selective treatment of the rear-side Poly enhances the cell's short-circuit current, ultimately leading to increased cell efficiency.

The synergy of these innovative technologies fully unleashes the potential of the TNC 2.0 modules, expanding the boundaries of module efficiency and achieving simultaneous improvements in module efficiency and bifaciality. This provides the Italian market with high-efficiency modules that offer greater value and lays a solid foundation for subsequent technological iterations and functional expansions.

Customer Sharing: Igniting the Enthusiasm of the Audience

The Tongwei booth, themed "TNC 2.0 Brings Efficiency Evolution", attracted global energy companies, investment firms, and industry experts. During the exhibition, Giuseppe Auguadro, Founder and General Manager of EEN S.r.l, a prominent Italian energy company, shared a collaborative case study as a special guest. He said, "Since 2024, we have initiated multiple collaborations with Tongwei in the European region. Our partnership with Tongwei has not only enabled the deployment of high-quality PV modules in our projects but has also allowed us to deeply appreciate Tongwei's commitment to technological innovation and its pursuit of superior quality." Giuseppe Auguadro emphasized that Tongwei modules, with their exceptional performance and stability, have achieved higher-than-expected power generation efficiency in several projects, providing solid support for the energy transition.

Furthermore, regarding the TNC 2.0 series of high-efficiency products showcased at the exhibition, he stated, "The TNC 2.0 series modules have not only reached new heights in power and efficiency, but their reliability and durability have also been rigorously tested, ensuring long-term stable operation in practical applications. We are highly anticipating more collaboration opportunities with Tongwei in the future to jointly advance the global energy transition."

Technical Presentation: Industry Collaboration Empowers the Future

Zhang Chanchan, Overseas Technical Support of Module Marketing from the PV Business Department of Tongwei Co., Ltd., highlighted TOPCon in her thematic presentation as a dominant choice in the PV market, owing to its robust cost control and reduced supply chain risks across various technological pathways. As a leader in efficiency advancements, Tongwei's TNC-G12/G12R series is designed to maximize returns and minimize costs for international projects through enhanced power output and conversion efficiency, thereby accelerating payback periods.

Tongwei showcased its comprehensive approach, from R&D innovation and stringent raw material selection to advanced manufacturing processes and comprehensive after-sales service, demonstrating how the efficient collaboration across these stages drives the superior performance of the TNC 2.0 series modules.

Anchoring on Technology: Building a Zero-Carbon Ecosystem in Europe

Through the KEY ENERGY exhibition, Tongwei demonstrated its strategic shift from "product export" to "technology empowerment" in the European market. Looking ahead, Tongwei will continue to deepen collaborative innovation with European partners, leveraging the TNC 2.0 series to accelerate the global energy transition.
