As part of its "Solar Employment Path" program, Trina Solar donated 300 solar panels to YouthBuild Global. These n-type TOPCon components will be used in solar installation training laboratories across the United States to provide photovoltaic bracket system installation training for YouthBuild students and provide practical experience that is crucial for the solar installation profession.

Some modules will be installed on affordable housing units built by YouthBuild students in YouthBuild Lake County, North Chicago, Illinois, to help low-income families offset their utility bills. The remaining modules will be installed on the roof of CLC, Inc. YouthBuild building located in Fort Worth, Texas, to help offset most, if not all, of the facility's utility bills, thereby allocating more resources to student support and project expansion.

Cao Jianjun, Vice President of North American Photovoltaic Business at Trina Solar, said, "This donation is not just about solar panels, but also about creating opportunities for our future leaders. It is crucial to help future generations acquire real skills that will power their careers and community development in the coming years. Trina Solar is honored to collaborate with YouthBuild Global to support this initiative. ”

As the headquarters of the youth construction movement, YouthBuild Global has joined forces and collaborated with a vast network of youth construction projects worldwide, supporting young people to achieve their aspirations and fully unleash their potential. In youth development projects, young people who have dropped out of school or become unemployed can regain their education, acquire vocational skills and qualifications, and become community leaders.

YouthBuild Global's "Solar Energy Employment Path" program is dedicated to training young people in solar installation skills and providing them with relevant qualifications to help them achieve meaningful career development in the thriving renewable energy sector. By providing students with experience in installing a universal system, the YouthBuild project ensures that participants can proficiently use various solar energy technologies upon entering the workplace.

We are very grateful for Trina's generous donation. This is of great significance for our project and the young people we serve, "said John Valverde, President and CEO of YouthBuild Global. This means more practical training, more practical experience, and more opportunities to create the future and community for our next generation

The solar employment pathway program is rapidly expanding, with plans to install solar panels in more project locations to reduce operating costs and provide affordable solar solutions for new homeowners.
