NANJING, China, Sept. 25 /Xinhua-PRNewswire/ -- ET Solar Group Corp. ("ET Solar"), a Nanjing-based solar power solution provider and integrated manufacturer of photovoltaic products including ingots, wafers, modules, and state-of-the-art dual-axis tracking systems with manufacturing facilities located in Taizhou, China, announced today a 1 MW dual-axis tracking system contract with Premier Power Renewable Energy Inc. ("Premier Power"), a California-based solar systems integrator.
These dual axis tracking systems were jointly developed by ET Solar Group and Meca Solar, one of the top tracking system manufacturers in Europe. Each system has a peak power of more than 11 kilowatt and is controlled by an astronomical program to track the sun.
Under the contract, ET Solar will ship a total of 97 dual-axis tracking systems to Premier Power. These tracking systems will be installed near San Francisco in Northern California. The project is scheduled to be completed before the end of this year. With these dual-axis tracking systems, annual power output of this project is estimated to be more than 2 million KWh, up to 40% higher than fixed array installations in the same region.
Linhui Sui, Vice President and Chief Strategy Officer of ET Solar Group, commented: "We are very excited to have our first large-scale tracking system project installed in the San Francisco Bay Area. We are proud to have the opportunity to work with Premier Power, a quality and leading PV system integrator, on this milestone project. It is an official recognition of our product, service, and engineering capability."

Considering the complex landscape and environment of the project, we simply could not find a better solution than the high quality ET tracking systems. ET Solar's strong local support, superior engineering capability and solution-oriented working style made our decision much easier."
