SHANGHAI, July 8, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — TrinaTracker, a leading smart solar tracking system provider under Trinasolar (SHA: 688599), has announced the completion of a third-party technical review for its Vanguard 1P tracker’s wind tunnel test program. The review, conducted by independent energy expert and assurance provider DNV, evaluated a new rigid-model pressure measurement test and advanced dynamic analysis research performed by Tongji University.
The groundbreaking study took place in Tongji University’s TJ-3 wind tunnel, the world’s second-largest facility of its kind. Researchers employed a large-scale multi-row array model, measuring 5m × 2.2m, to conduct comprehensive and precise measurements of wind loads on the tracker structure. The study also investigated various parameters to ensure the Vanguard 1P tracker’s reliability across diverse application scenarios.
DNV’s rigorous review of the research findings has contributed to a significant enhancement in the Vanguard 1P tracker’s wind resistance performance.
Xie Tao, General Manager of Energy Systems for Mainland China, Hong Kong, and Macau at DNV, emphasized the importance of the study: “Trackers are critical components in PV systems, and their long-term reliability directly impacts investor returns. This review examines an innovative wind tunnel testing method proposed by Tongji University and TrinaTracker, representing a bold step forward in testing technologies amid the ongoing energy transition.”
TrinaTracker’s commitment to wind engineering research is evident in its collaborations with global industry leaders such as Tongji University, RWDI, and CPP. These partnerships ensure that TrinaTracker’s products remain at the forefront of the industry. The company’s collaboration with DNV exemplifies a new model for addressing global customer needs. Looking ahead, TrinaTracker plans to continue its investment in technical innovation, with the goal of delivering cutting-edge tracker technologies and products to the market.
