The latest Array STI H250 presents features such as a reduced number of piles per tracker, enhanced tolerance for East-West tilt, and a wider North-South angle between rows, contributing to improved suitability for installation in challenging terrains. The slew drives restrict the movement of each row when disconnected, ensuring safe passage for tractors and streamlining maintenance tasks. This feature helps with agri-PV as it makes the tracker suitable for dual use alongside grazing animals and crops.

The tracker comes equipped not only with a new integrated control system but also with the ability to seamlessly integrate with Array’s SmarTrack energy optimization software. This functionality enables the tracker to adjust its tilt based on the distinctive features of the terrain, prevailing weather conditions, and the specific geographical location of the installation. These adjustments are designed to enhance the overall efficiency of the PV plant, resulting in an increase in energy capture through the effective optimization of backtracking and diffuse light strategies.
Array is exhibiting this tracker at Genera 2024, so if you are in Madrid, be sure to give them a visit at Booth 10C09 today. (mfo)
