TCL Zhonghuan is displaying X-series high-efficiency silicon wafers, TCL Solar T5 Pro and C2 PV modules and BlueArk energy storage products at Booth H16-A275 at the Renewable Energy India Expo, which opened on October 22 at the India Expo Centre in Greater Noida. [PR Newswire](https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/tcl-zhonghuan-powers-indias-energy-transition-with-pv-innovations-at-rei-expo-2026-302918175.html) reported the showcase on October 23.

## What TCL Zhonghuan Is Showing at REI Expo 2026

The X-series wafers are made through optimizations in crystal growth and related manufacturing processes, designed to control impurity levels and improve material properties for downstream high-efficiency solar cell manufacturing. The wafers are compatible with mainstream high-efficiency cell technologies including TOPCon, HJT and xBC, giving cell manufacturers options for process optimization and performance improvement.

TCL Solar's T5 Pro module uses high-density encapsulation technology and a three-section cell design, delivering 17% higher power generation than conventional half-cut modules under shading conditions, with a temperature coefficient of -0.26%/°C. The C2 module adopts back-contact technology and a zero-gap design, combining a larger effective power-generating area with low-light performance, shading tolerance and low degradation. Both series are designed for utility-scale, commercial and industrial distributed generation, and residential applications.

The BlueArk energy storage series covers residential and small commercial use, off-grid and microgrid systems, and commercial and industrial applications. The BlueArk X1 has an integrated design for homes and small businesses, while the X5 supports coordinated operation with PV systems and diesel generators for remote areas and industrial parks. The W10 uses liquid cooling and AI-powered early-warning capabilities for commercial and industrial energy management.

## TCL Zhonghuan's Earlier 2026 Moves

TCL Zhonghuan reported overseas module shipments of about 2GW in the first half of the year, roughly four times the prior-year figure, with growth in Europe, the Middle East, Australia, New Zealand and Southeast Asia, Jiemian reported in August 2026. In July 2026, Yicaiglobal reported the company will invest CNY12 billion (USD1.8 billion) to build a factory in Shenzhen's Guangming district for high-end 12-inch silicon wafers for integrated circuits, with a monthly production capacity of 700,000 wafers. Pv-magazine reported in July 2026 that the board approved a CNY 2.6 billion ($382 million) project to convert 20 GW of TOPCon cell capacity and 25 GW of TOPCon module capacity into back-contact production lines.

## Back-Contact Panels From SunPower, Qcells and Tongwei

TCL SunPower opened European orders on October 19, 2026 for SunPower Origin, an eighth-generation back-contact solar panel with a 40-year warranty, first deliveries expected before the end of 2026, [PR Newswire](https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/sunpower-origin-sunpowers-new-solar-panel-launches-in-europe-with-8th-generation-back-contact-technology-and-a-single-40-year-warranty-302912379.html) reported. Qcells will launch residential solar panels with U.S.-made aluminum frames by the end of 2026, using ALUKO's Tennessee facility, [Pv-magazine-usa](https://pv-magazine-usa.com/2026/10/16/qcells-to-introduce-u-s-domestic-frames-for-residential-solar-panel-lineup/) reported on October 16, 2026. Tongwei Solar introduced the TNC 2.0 FULLX G12R-48, a 48-cell residential module delivering up to 490W at 24.5% efficiency, [PR Newswire](https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/tongweis-tnc-2-0-fullx-g12r-48-a-new-residential-solar-module-designed-to-get-more-from-every-rooftop-302906670.html) reported on October 13, 2026.
