FREMONT, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sep 4, 2025--

Nextracker (Nasdaq: NXT), a leading solar technology platform provider, today announced the launch of its proprietary NX PowerMerge™ trunk connector, a next generation DC power component designed to streamline electrical balance of systems (eBOS) installation and boost long-term reliability. With NX PowerMerge, Nextracker has reimagined DC architectures to deliver a field flexible, cost efficient, and reliable solution to aggregate DC power collection to meet the needs of engineering procurement and construction (EPC) providers and owners. This innovative solution marks the first product introduction to the Nextracker eBOS portfolio since its acquisition of Bentek earlier this year and reinforces its commitment to delivering high performance solar plant solutions at scale.

“We are excited to introduce NX PowerMerge to advance the electrical architecture of solar power plants,” said Dan Shugar, founder and CEO of Nextracker. “Customers will appreciate faster and more flexible construction, greater reliability, and alignment with the attributes of a modern grid. This is the kind of highly scalable technology that can help solar power continue to grow its share of the global power generation market.”

Compared to traditional trunk systems, NX PowerMerge provides field flexibility with fewer connections and a simplified installation process, establishing a more secure, stable power distribution path across the tracker array. Built for compatibility with all solar trackers and fixed systems, NX PowerMerge accelerates installation and commissioning, and enhances long-term reliability and energy production yield. NX PowerMerge is available for purchase now with deliveries beginning in spring 2026 with a manufactured in the U.S.A. option.

Developed to meet the demands of today’s high-voltage, high-density solar arrays, Nextracker’s NX PowerMerge trunk connector delivers a robust, 2kV-ready solution for PV string-to-trunk bus connections. With 400A+ ampacity, support for up to eight tap wires (6-8 AWG), and compatibility with trunk conductors up to 1000 kcmil, NX PowerMerge enables developers to reduce the number of connection points, simplify inverter block layouts, and streamline project designs.

NX PowerMerge trunk connector key features include:

• Field adaptable installation that aligns flexibly with diverse solar field layouts and site conditions
• Expanded contact surface area, lowering electrical resistance and enhancing connection stability
• Maintenance-free operation that reduces long-term O&M and enhances energy production

As labor costs rise and skilled field resources tighten, NX PowerMerge™ helps EPCs to accelerate timelines through simplified installation and standardized, scalable architecture designed for long-term field performance. This solution also supports the industry’s shift toward more centralized testing, standardization, and greater visibility for operators with fewer units to monitor in the field.
