Under the contract, ET Solar will ship a total of 273 dual-axis trackers in the first half of 2008, with the first shipment expected to occur in April 2008.
Each tracker has a peak output of 11kW and can produce, depending on geography, between 20,000kWh and 28,000kWh per annum. Annual power output of ET Solar dual-axis trackers is reportedly up to 40% higher than a fixed array.
All these dual-axis trackers are jointly developed by Meca Solar and ET Solar, and will be operating on the high efficiency solar modules manufactured by ET Solar. ET Solar trackers are able to be fully integrated with the modules manufactured by other solar companies as well.
Xinghua Wang, chairman of ET Solar, said: The 3MW tracker transaction is the first sizeable tracking system sales that a China-based integrated solar company ever made into world’s major solar markets.
