Trinasolar Supplies 37MW RASLAG 4 Solar Plant in the Philippines

Trinasolar has supplied more than 55,000 solar modules for the 37 megawatt RASLAG 4 solar plant in Pampanga, Philippines, which has just received its Certificate of Compliance from the Energy Regulatory Commission confirming its status as a compliant renewable energy facility. The plant, developed by Philippine Stock Exchange-listed RASLAG Corp and operational since October 2024, is expected to generate approximately 48 gigawatt-hours of electricity annually in 2026 and 2027, enough to power around 20,000 households while displacing roughly 34,000 metric tonnes of carbon dioxide emissions each year.

RASLAG 4 is rated at 36.65 megawatts peak and connects to the 69-kilovolt transmission line operated by the National Grid Corporation of the Philippines, adding utility-scale clean power directly into the national grid. The compliance certification formalises the plant's regulatory standing as it continues supplying electricity to the system it has been feeding since late 2024.

The project extends a long-running relationship between Trinasolar and the Philippine solar market, where the company says it has worked with partners since 2013 to support utility-scale deployment. For RASLAG Corp, the project forms part of a broader push to expand homegrown renewable capacity as the Philippines works to meet growing power demand, a challenge facing many Southeast Asian grids as economic growth and electrification increase electricity consumption faster than new generation can be added.

Reyland Benjamin Nepomuceno, chief strategy officer of RASLAG Corp, said the project needed solar modules backed by proven technology, dependable supply and utility-scale experience, and that Trinasolar brought those strengths to support the company's efforts to bring more renewable power to Filipino communities. Elva Wang, Trinasolar's group director for Southeast Asia, said the company would continue supporting the Philippine market with solar and energy storage solutions as power demand keeps growing.
