As solar projects become ever larger, sites with slopes and uneven terrain are becoming the norm for project development, leading tracker manufacturers to adapt their offerings accordingly. Molly Lempriere details the latest launches that aim to address this issue.

Solar tracker manufacturer PV Hardware has planned to build a new solar structure and tracker facility occupying 65,000m2 in an industrial park in Valencia, Spain.

SolarEdge has become the first vendor to meet the South Australian government's new dynamic export regulations, which aim to stabilise the grid with sophisticated yet remote cloud control technologies.

Australia’s Renewable Energy Agency (ARENA) has awarded A$41.5 million (US$28.51 million) in funding to 13 research projects aimed at reducing solar costs.

Using an in-house tool and PVsyst simulation software, a team from Chint New Energy Technology Co. analyse the LCOE of utility-scale solar systems in various countries based on three technologies: PERC, TOPCon and HJT.

Solar tracker manufacturer Soltec has signed an agreement with Canadian Solar and SPIC to supply 738MW of its trackers to two Brazilian solar projects.
