Racking

The Intersolar conference Munich 2024 drew over 100,000 solar professionals, completely filling the massive convention hall. Discussions focused on low module pricing, technology breakthroughs, batteries everything, general electrification, and so much more.

Solar panels are often tilted to a stowed position to prevent wind damage to utility-scale assets. Array Technologies introduced a passive stowing strategy that prevents unnecessary production losses.

The utility-scale solar mounting solution’s low carbon option places an emphasis on reducing carbon-intensive materials and improving logistics.

Renewable America designed the project to disturb the land little as possible, installing fixed-tilt tracker array that required no grading.

Solar wiring that integrates easily in the field can simplify installation, enhance both quality and longevity, and improve overall project efficiency.

Also on the rise: Renewables and storage interconnection backlog grew about 30% last year. California’s electricity multi-crisis can be aided by virtual power plants. And more.

Rutgers reports that the vertical system fits well with the aim of the project, which is to study the benefits of agrivoltaics where there is a large energy demand and limited space.

Also on the rise: Duke Energy Progress seeks approval for 76 MW solar project in South Carolina. DOE releases funds to streamline siting and permitting for renewables. And more.

Concord Green Energy selected the mounting provider for its fixed-tilt solar mounts.

Using Erthos mounting system, which places panels directly on the land with no racking or trackers, the project is expected to be installed rapidly and save on land use.
