Trinasolar to Supply Modules for 27 MW NSW Green Hydrogen Project

Trinasolar has been selected to supply solar modules for the Good Earth Green Hydrogen and Ammonia (GEGHA) project near Moree in New South Wales, marking a key milestone for what is set to become the state’s first green hydrogen and ammonia production facility.

The project’s 27 MW solar farm will be powered by Trinasolar’s 510 W and 515 W Vertex S+ (NEG18R.28) modules, which feature n-type i-TOPCon technology and a dual-glass design. The company said the modules were selected for their durability, weather resistance and low degradation, supporting long-term renewable energy generation and improved project economics.

Construction of the facility is currently underway. Once operational, the GEGHA project is expected to produce up to 200 tonnes of green hydrogen annually and approximately 4,500 tonnes of low-carbon ammonia. The project is intended to replace imported fossil fuel-based fertilisers and contribute to emissions reductions in the agricultural sector.

Trinasolar said its n-type i-TOPCon technology helps minimise light-induced degradation, enabling stable energy output over the project’s lifetime. The company added that the technology is designed to support lower lifecycle costs and enhance long-term performance.

According to Edison Zhou, Head of Australia and New Zealand at Trinasolar, the project highlights the growing role of solar energy in supporting emerging industries such as green hydrogen and low-carbon fertiliser production by providing renewable electricity for the facility.

Joe Cumming, Senior Project Manager at Hiringa Energy, said the GEGHA project has been designed as a commercial pilot for decentralised hydrogen and fertiliser production that could be replicated across regional Australia. He noted that Trinasolar’s experience in the Australian market and its dual-glass module technology were key factors in the module selection for the solar farm.
