TCL Solar presented its latest photovoltaic technologies at the Korea Green Energy Expo in Daegu during the past week, highlighting its focus on South Korea’s expanding solar market. The country is projected to reach a cumulative installed solar capacity of 55.7 GW by 2030, with over 5 GW expected annually. The company displayed high-efficiency modules, including TOPCon and Back Contact technologies, alongside lightweight solutions tailored for ageing industrial rooftops. These offerings are positioned to support distributed and floating solar segments, which are driving market growth. The showcase also reflects TCL Solar’s broader strategy to collaborate with local partners and strengthen its presence in the Korean renewable energy ecosystem.
TCL Solar showcased its latest photovoltaic solutions at the Korea Green Energy Expo in Daegu during the past week, as the company expanded its engagement with South Korea’s growing renewable energy sector. The exhibition comes at a time when the country is targeting a cumulative installed solar capacity of 55.7 GW by 2030, with annual additions exceeding 5 GW, driven by increasing adoption of distributed and floating photovoltaic systems.
The company presented its T5 Pro TOPCon Multi-Cut product, which incorporates advanced Tunnel Oxide Passivated Contact (TOPCon) technology combined with overlapping cell architecture. The module is designed to deliver a maximum power output of up to 670W and 755W, positioning it within the high-efficiency segment of solar energy solutions.
In addition, TCL Solar introduced its C2 Back Contact module, which is engineered to deliver higher energy yields, particularly in complex installation environments. These include projects with high balance-of-system costs, limited land availability, low ground reflectivity, or partial shading conditions. The module’s design eliminates front metal lines and busbars, offering both improved performance and enhanced visual integration with architectural requirements in urban settings.
The Back Contact module also provides a higher power output, exceeding comparable TOPCon modules by approximately 20W, while maintaining improved resistance to hot spots and a lower degradation rate of around 0.35%. Such features are intended to improve long-term efficiency and operational reliability in varied deployment conditions.
The company further highlighted its lightweight module range, weighing approximately 5.4 kg per square metre, which reduces structural load by nearly half. These modules are particularly suited for installation on ageing industrial rooftops, a segment gaining traction in South Korea as part of distributed solar deployment strategies.
Alongside product showcases, TCL Solar acknowledged its local partner, Prana Solution Co., Ltd., for achieving strong sales performance, underscoring the company’s collaborative approach in the Korean market. The firm also pointed to its manufacturing capabilities through its parent, TCL Zhonghuan, including the development of an advanced silicon wafer production facility.
The exhibition participation reflects TCL Solar’s strategy to align with South Korea’s renewable energy targets by offering localised solutions and strengthening partnerships. The company indicated that it would continue working with regional stakeholders to support solar capacity expansion while advancing its international footprint through the Korean market.
