By July 2025, Trina Storage, the energy storage arm of the world’s largest solar company, Trinasolar, will have completed more than 2.4 gigawatt hours of utility-scale storage capacity in the Asia-Pacific area. BloombergNEF estimates that 16 GWh of new Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) capacity will be added in APAC (excluding China) in 2025, with these deployments, which span Australia, Japan, Southeast Asia, and South Asia, making a significant contribution.
Trina Storage has been chosen to provide cutting-edge BESS technology for a number of significant renewable energy projects as the demand for grid-scale storage is growing in important APAC markets. This includes 500 MWh for Australia’s Limestone Coast North Energy Park and 1.7 GWh of BESS for one of the biggest storage projects in South Asia to date. Trina Storage’s standing as a reliable partner for utility-scale energy storage that can handle intricate, multi-phase utility deployments is strengthened by these advancements.
The Elementa Series, a clever, fully integrated storage platform constructed using Trina’s proprietary lithium iron phosphate (LFP) cells and engineered to maximize performance from cell to grid, powers the projects. It is possible to have more control over quality, safety, and performance by producing and developing its own LFP cells. Important characteristics include auxiliary power usage as low as 1.8% and a clever thermal management system that keeps cell temperature fluctuation under 3°C. In comparison to traditional systems, these capabilities are designed to cut energy losses by up to 30%, resulting in increased system efficiency and the ability to provide more useful energy each year.
Trina Storage promises excellent bankability and long-term system dependability with a dependable supply chain, tested technology, extensive performance guarantees, and long-term warranties. It continues to hold the top spot in BloombergNEF’s worldwide storage providers and integrators bankability assessment and has been ranked among the company’s Tier 1 energy storage manufacturers for six straight quarters. Trina Storage combines bankable project credentials, compliance with international safety and performance standards (such as IEC, UL, and NFPA) as well as local standards and certifications (in nations like Australia and Japan), and strong regional execution capabilities, all supported by global technical expertise with localized support. Trina Storage has been a favored partner for utility-scale energy storage projects thanks in large part to these capabilities, which have also helped to increase investor trust.
“Our growing presence across APAC reflects not only strong market demand but growing recognition of Trina Storage’s differentiated technology, delivery capabilities, and long-term reliability,” stated Dr Leo Zhao, Head of Energy Storage at Trinasolar Asia Pacific. “Trina Storage is well-prepared, with a full-scope delivery framework from manufacturing to commissioning. In key markets, we have established expert local teams who understand regional policies, grid requirements, and market dynamics. With proven technical strength and reliable project delivery, Trina Storage is setting new benchmarks for the global energy storage industry.”
With utility-scale projects underway across the region, Trina Storage continues to expand its footprint and support APAC’s clean energy transition through safe, high-performing, and future-ready energy storage solutions.
