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 second-largest facility of its kind worldwide. Researchers employed a massive multi-row array model, measuring 5m by 2.2m, to conduct precise measurements of wind loads on the tracker structure. The comprehensive analysis also explored various parameters to ensure the Vanguard 1P tracker’s reliability across diverse application scenarios.
DNV’s rigorous review of the research findings has significantly bolstered confidence in the Vanguard 1P tracker’s wind resistance capabilities. This advanced wind load evaluation marks a substantial improvement in the product’s performance under challenging weather conditions.
Xie Tao, General Manager of Energy Systems for Mainland China, Hong Kong, and Macau at DNV, emphasized the importance of the study, stating, “Trackers are a crucial component of PV systems, and their long-term reliability directly impacts investor returns. This review examines an innovative wind tunnel testing method developed by Tongji University and TrinaTracker—representing a significant leap forward in testing technologies amid the ongoing energy transition.”
TrinaTracker’s commitment to excellence is evident in its dedicated wind engineering research capabilities and collaborations with global industry leaders such as Tongji University, RWDI, and CPP. The partnership with DNV exemplifies a new model for addressing global customer needs in the renewable energy sector. Looking ahead, TrinaTracker plans to continue its investment in technical innovation, aiming to deliver state-of-the-art tracker technologies and products that push the boundaries of solar energy efficiency.
