Trina Storage, the energy storage arm of global solar leader Trinasolar, is set to debut its next-generation Elementa 2 Pro 5MWh Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) in the Philippines at Solar & Storage Live Philippines 2025, taking place on May 19–20 at the SMX Convention Center in Manila.
As the Philippines strives to achieve 35% renewable energy by 2030, the nation faces mounting challenges in maintaining grid stability, energy security, and cost efficiency. With the rapid growth of solar and wind integration, advanced and dependable energy storage solutions are essential to manage supply fluctuations and ensure the delivery of consistent, clean energy. The Elementa 2 Pro, an evolution of the successful Elementa 2, is specifically engineered to meet these needs—offering enhanced efficiency, flexibility, and safety.
Elementa 2 Pro features:
Improved Lifespan: In-house developed and manufactured 314Ah Trina Cell supports up to 15,000 cycles, up from 12,000 in Elementa 2, offering lower lifecycle costs and longer-term value.
Enhanced Durability: C5 corrosion resistance and IP67 protection, ensuring even greater reliability in harsh environments.
Smarter Cooling: An upgraded hybrid air-liquid cooling system reduces auxiliary power consumption by 30%. It operates efficiently in ambient temperatures up to 55°C, significantly enhancing energy utilization.
Advanced Safety: Fire mitigation systems and sandwich cabin structure, providing up to two hours of fire protection.
Trinasolar will also showcase its latest innovations: the Shield Extreme Climate Module (NED19RC.20) and the high-power Vertex N i-TOPCon Ultra 740W Module (NEG21C.20). The 630W n-type i-TOPCon Ultra Shield module is built with ultra-durable glass that is 25% thicker than standard designs, delivering 2.5 times greater impact resistance. Engineered to endure harsh conditions, it withstands up to 8000 Pa downforce and 6000 Pa uplift when installed with a three-beam system, making it one of the strongest solutions available for typhoon-prone regions like the Philippines. The module is also rated to resist hail impact up to 55 mm in diameter and carries a Class A fire rating, ensuring dependable performance across a wide range of extreme environments.
The i-TOPCon Ultra Vertex N modules boost cell efficiency by up to 1%, with enhanced power output of up to 40W. The bifacial Vertex N 740W offers an efficiency of 23.8%.
As a global leader in smart PV and energy storage solutions, Trinasolar is committed to enhancing the Philippines’ energy landscape. Trinasolar supplied its high-performance modules to PetroGreen Energy Corporation’s 27MW Dagohoy Solar Power Project in Bohol which powers around 18,000 homes and key tourist areas. The 40MW Limbauan Solar Power Project in Isabela, also powered by Trinasolar modules, produces approximately 59 GWh per year, powering nearly 33,000 households. These projects highlight Trinasolar’s dedication to delivering advanced solar solutions to support Philippines’ clean energy transition.
