Single Axis Solar Tracker Design
Innovative design drives epc savings on foundations dc bos and installation labor.
Single axis solar tracker design. The posts at either end of the axis of rotation of a horizontal single axis tracker can be shared between trackers to lower the installation cost. Those features combined with proven cost effective installation and operation have driven soltec and sf7 to the top tier globally. Soltec has launched its next generation sf8 single axis tracker system to meet the needs of utility scale pv power plants adopting the new wave of large area solar panels. A dual axis solar tracker prototype is designed to maximize the harvested solar energy.
Accommodating variable slope tolerances and having adjustable row lengths up to 120 modules allows this system the flexibility to adapt to a variety of site conditions that used to impact tracker designs. This type of solar tracker is most appropriate for low latitude regions. The next evolution in tracker design from ftc solar. The sf8 s 4 to 6.
Experimental results show that the proposed system performs 25 better than a fixed solar panel under the. Voyager is a next generation single axis tracker that provides industry leading ease of installation performance and reliability.
