Trina Vertex S+ 445W All-Black Solar Panel
The Trina Solar Vertex S+ 445W All-Black Solar Panel (TSM-NEG9R.25) is a premium N-Type i-TOPCon module engineered for homeowners and businesses seeking top-tier performance without sacrificing aesthetics. Just a quick note on the specifications, the NEG9R.25 actually utilizes a high-density 144 half-cell layout and a sleek 30mm frame, rather than the 96 cells and 35mm frame mentioned. This advanced design helps it achieve its exceptional 22.8% maximum efficiency.
Designed with a stunning all-black finish, this module features dual-glass construction. This means instead of a standard plastic backsheet, it uses a second layer of heat-strengthened glass. This provides unmatched durability against harsh weather, salt spray, and micro-cracking while delivering extreme power output.

Why Choose the Trina Vertex S+ 445W All-Black Solar Panel
The Vertex S+ represents the pinnacle of residential solar technology. By upgrading to N-Type i-TOPCon cells, Trina has drastically reduced long-term degradation. While standard panels lose significant power over time, this module retains an incredible 87.4% of its original output at year 30. The dual-glass all-black design not only looks stealthy and modern on any roof but also prevents the common failures associated with traditional plastic backsheets.
Benefits of the Vertex S+ Dual Glass Module
-
Enhanced Durability: The 1.6mm front and rear glass layers sandwich the solar cells. This makes the panel incredibly resistant to micro-cracks during transportation and installation.
-
Ultra-Low Degradation: N-Type technology ensures a first-year degradation of just 1%, and only 0.4% annually thereafter, guaranteeing you more electricity output over the system’s lifespan.
-
Premium Aesthetics: The black anodized aluminum frame and dark internal encapsulant create a uniform, dark appearance that blends beautifully with modern architecture.
-
High Load Capacity: Certified to withstand heavy snow loads of 5400 Pa and extreme wind loads of 4000 Pa.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: What is the difference between the NEG9R.25 and the NEG9R.28? Both are excellent N-Type dual-glass panels. The NEG9R.28 typically features a slightly different cell layout or busbar design aimed at slightly higher wattages, whereas the NEG9R.25 is optimized for the 440W to 465W range with a pure all-black aesthetic.
Q2: What is the advantage of dual-glass over a standard backsheet? Standard solar panels use a polymer plastic backsheet that can degrade, crack, or let moisture in over decades of UV exposure. Dual-glass panels replace that plastic with a second sheet of tempered glass. This seals the cells in an impenetrable barrier, drastically increasing the lifespan and fire safety of the module.
Q3: Will this panel work with microinverters? Yes. With an Open Circuit Voltage of 52.6V and a maximum power current of 10.05A, this panel pairs perfectly with modern high-capacity microinverters.
Q4: How thick is the frame? The sleek black anodized aluminum frame measures 30mm in thickness. This provides structural rigidity while keeping the panel lightweight enough at 46.3 lbs for easy rooftop handling.
Q5: What is N-Type i-TOPCon technology? It is an advanced method of treating the silicon cells. N-Type cells are highly resistant to Light Induced Degradation, which causes older P-Type panels to lose power as soon as they are exposed to sunlight. This technology is the reason Trina can offer an extended 30-year power warranty.
