Trinasolar Powers Uzbekistan's 126 MW Sarimay Solar Project with 184,328 Vertex N Modules

TASHKENT, Uzbekistan, Sept. 9, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Trinasolar, a global leader in smart photovoltaic (PV) and energy storage solutions, has supplied 184,328 Vertex N 695W modules to the 126 MW Sarimay Solar PV power plant in Uzbekistan's Khorezm region. Now fully commissioned, Sarimay Solar is delivering renewable electricity to the country's national grid.

Uzbekistan is expanding large-scale solar and wind generation as it works toward its goal for renewable sources to account for 40% of electricity generation by 2030. Sarimay Solar turns that national ambition into operating capacity.

Construction of Sarimay Solar began in May 2024, with the plant delivering its first megawatt-hours in November 2025 before completing commissioning. A three-kilometre transmission line connects the facility to Uzbekistan's national grid, enabling it to supply electricity to JSC National Electric Grid of Uzbekistan.

Spread across about 180 hectares, Sarimay Solar is expected to generate approximately 252 gigawatt-hours of renewable electricity each year, equivalent to the electricity needs of around 60,000 residents. The solar farm will offset more than 140,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide emissions annually. These outcomes show the contribution a single utility-scale project can make as Uzbekistan adds renewable generation to its power system.

The utility-scale Sarimay project is powered by Trinasolar's Vertex N 695W (NEG21C.20) modules, which combine n-type i-TOPCon advanced cell technology with bifacial dual-glass construction. The modules are well suited to Uzbekistan's arid continental climate, where hot, dry summers, wide seasonal temperature variations and exposure to sand and dust create demanding operating conditions. A low temperature coefficient helps limit power loss in high temperatures, while tested resistance to sand and potential-induced degradation supports long-term durability. The modules are also backed by a 30-year power warranty, providing performance assurance for a project operating under a 25-year framework.

"Sarimay shows how Uzbekistan's renewable energy ambition is becoming operating infrastructure. At this scale, module performance is a system-level consideration: high output, bifacial generation and long-term reliability all contribute to how a solar plant is designed to generate over decades," said Elva Wang, Group Director of Southeast, South and Central Asia, Trinasolar Asia Pacific. "We are proud that Vertex N is supporting this project, and we will continue working with partners to advance utility-scale solar across Uzbekistan and Central Asia."
