Tracking The Tracker

  • Higher Adoption : > 50% of added capacity in US with tracker
  • Confidence : It does add value for the cost
  • Indian Context
  • Price sensitive market – higher investment for solar PV system
  • Price sensitive market – higher investment for solar PV system
  • GST
  • Increase in prices of solar modules
  • Penetration in Indian market ~ 30% (utility scale)

Tracking The Tracker

  • Making Solar Reliable
  • In-firm power is always a lame player
  • Tracker - Flattening of curve
  • Important for grid stability

Optmization of Land

Land is at premium : Need to maximize land coverage

  • Double Portrait (Vs. Single Portrait) : 100 no. in 50m

Optimization of Land

  • Complexity in land contour
  • Undulations – need for levelling leading to incremental cost
  • Row tracker – can handle 150 N-S slope
  • Odd shape land plot
  • Row-wise independent structure
  • Optimum string combination within the row
  • Optimum string combination within the row

Operations & Manitenance

Solar PV Systems are known to be low on O & M Implicit complexity in tracker Row Tracker – Alleviating the pain

  • BLDC Motor instead of actuator
  • Less no. of drives – reducing complexity and cost
  • Proven compact and maintenance free gearbox
  • No onsite fabrication
  • Quick installation and lower mounting time for components.
