TrinaTracker, a leading tracker manufacturer and business unit of Trina Solar Co., Ltd., has effectively demonstrated for an entire year the efficient operation of its 600 MW photovoltaic plant, as part of the ±800 kV UHV DC Power Transmission Project located in Qinghai-Henan, China. Furthermore, Trina Solar has been the only supplier of the whole installation that provided both modules and trackers.</p>
<p>
Recently, Trina Solar released a series of testing results on the mechanical reliability of the 670W Vertex module. Covering six tests, including static mechanical load test and five rigorous tests including non-uniform snow-load test, extreme low-temperature mechanical Load test, hail test, extreme DML test and extreme wind tunnel test, the serial testing results achieved an across-the-board verification of the excellent mechanical load reliability of the 670W Vertex modules.</p>
