Exclusive Supplier for Tepuy Photovoltaic Plant, Trina Tracker Strengthens Presence in Latin America with Factory in Brazil

Vanguard 1P: The Innovative Technology That Drives Energy Production

Trina Tracker, a division of Trina Solar focused on the development and manufacturing of smart solar tracking systems with Artificial Intelligence, has signed a significant agreement with the Power Construction Corporation of China (PowerChina). The contract designates Trina Tracker as the sole supplier of equipment for the Tepuy Photovoltaic Solar Park, located in Antioquia, northwestern Colombia. A total of 108 MW of solar trackers will be supplied, highlighting the Vanguard 1P, the company’s latest innovation.

This equipment employs the SuperTrack algorithm, optimizing the angle and movement of each row of solar panels to maximize energy production. This translates into an increase of up to 8% in energy generation, even in uneven terrain or during moments of diffuse irradiation.

Reduced Costs, Maximized Efficiency: The Impact of Vanguard 1P on Large Solar Projects

Designed to operate in high-capacity solar plants, the Vanguard 1P minimizes the requirements for drive systems and controllers per megawatt, generating substantial savings in both materials and labor hours during the installation phase. Additionally, the need for fewer foundations increases compatibility with cleaning robots, and the double damper system reduces the likelihood of damage caused by strong winds.

Latin America: A Fertile Market for Solar Technology Expansion

According to data from consultancy S&P Global, Latin America accounts for over 80% of photovoltaic projects that use solar trackers, a significantly higher number than the global average, which is around 45%. This high level of adoption signals sustainable growth for Trina Tracker in the region. The company believes that by introducing its next-generation smart solar tracking technology to Latin America, it will continue to drive the development of solar projects, contributing to a greener and more sustainable energy matrix.

Growth Bet: Factory in Brazil

In a strategic move, Trina Tracker announced in August the establishment of a factory in Salvador, the capital of Bahia, with operations expected to begin in the last quarter of 2023. The plant will have a production capacity of 2.5 GW in solar trackers, and it can be expanded as demand increases. In addition to serving the Brazilian market, the unit will also supply trackers to other Latin American countries, further reinforcing the company’s commitment to the region.

The agreement for 108 MW in Colombia, combined with the new factory in Brazil, positions Trina Tracker as a key player in the Latin American solar energy market, promoting a more sustainable future through cutting-edge technological innovations.

Engineers want to carve through Africa with a giant canal to bring water from the world’s second-largest river to a dying lake on the edge of the Sahara Desert that has already lost 90% of its water.

A giant brown band visible from space, approximately 8,850 kilometers long, connected Africa to America in the Atlantic Ocean, and satellites revealed that it is neither land nor pollution, but the largest accumulation of seaweed in the world, which broke records in 2025.

Brazil filled the Northeast with wind turbines but now faces the side effect of 705 giant blades reaching the end of their lifespan by 2032 just in Rio Grande do Norte, while the world projects 43 million tons of waste by 2050.

India approved the country’s first submerged road-rail tunnel, 15.8 kilometers dug under the bed of the Brahmaputra River.

Instead of burning or burying old tires, an American city is transforming about 2,000 of them into the street itself, paving its first sections with a quieter and more durable rubber asphalt.

In just one cast, fishermen are surprised to capture 14,096 mullets in Bombinhas and close a historic season with 58,000 fish; scene recorded in the Santa Catarina paradise marks the last day of the 2026 season.

10 giant tortoises are reintroduced and, in just 6 months, trigger changes that lead scientists to investigate a phenomenon absent for 180 years; the numbers recorded on the island impress researchers from around the world.

Embraer, a company born in Brazil, is redefining global military transport with the KC-390 Millennium: it flies at 870 km/h, carries 26 tons, operates on unpaved runways, and has already won over 8 countries, including NATO members.

Brazil puts R$ 15 billion on the table to boost waterways and shipyards: there are 849 projects, 108 barges under construction, 36 vessels for Transpetro, and an additional US$ 2.25 billion already approved to accelerate the naval recovery.

Volkswagen car was produced for only 2 years and today has become one of the most interesting purchases with 128 hp, achieving up to 14.2 km/l and running 738 km with ACC and automatic braking.

Russia is on the brink of collapse: reserves have almost disappeared, oil revenues have plummeted by 45%, and experts point out the detail that could put Moscow under unprecedented pressure.

New Hyundai i20 2027: with a 1.0 turbo engine of 115 hp, up to 14.8 km/l, and being one of the cheapest cars in Brazil, Hyundai launches a national crossover larger than the HB20 for R$ 99,990

The world has bet on green hydrogen as the fuel of the future, but now faces the side effect: producing 1 kilogram requires about 9 liters of ultrapure water, and the largest projects on the planet are precisely in the driest regions of the Earth, where water is already scarce for people.

Africa has about 500,000 cell towers and most still burn diesel to operate, while companies rush to cover antennas with solar energy and avoid signal blackouts.

Farmers swapped diesel for solar panels in Pakistan, powered irrigation pumps almost cost-free, expanded rice fields, and now groundwater has become a red alert in the countryside.

Migrant workers left the world’s largest renewable energy park in India after extreme heat, 12-hour shifts, delayed wages, and poor accommodations at a site that still promises to supply 18 million homes.

Taiwanese fishermen accepted offshore wind turbines in the name of clean energy, but now they say that old routes have disappeared, fish have decreased, and income has become uncertain on the coast.
