  • Soltec has actually contracted with Canadian Solar and also SPIC for the supply of SFOne trackers.
  • The trackers enable maximized energy effectiveness and lessened visual impact thanks to their lower height compared to various other tracker setups.

Spanish international solar tracker manufacturer Soltec has actually revealed that it has actually signed an agreement with solar corporations Canadian Solar and also SPIC for the supply of SFOne trackers for two Brazilian solar energy projects having a cumulative capacity of 738 MW. Work on these two power plants will certainly begin in mid-2023. The solar projects will certainly be situated in the Brazilian states of Piaui and Ceara.

The projects will be incorporated with SFOne 1-in-portrait solar trackers from Soltec. In September, the Spanish firm linked the initial solar power project constructed by it in Brazil. In 2015, Soltec had actually introduced SFOne, a new solar tracker with a double row 1P configuration, which is stated to be versatile to all kinds of projects in the global market.

Building of the claimed 2 projects will protect against the launch of over 1.5 million metric lots of CO2 to the atmosphere. Furthermore, the power produced by these two solar plants will amount the power required to supply over 900,000 families.

Soltec is an up and down integrated task which specializes in photovoltaic projects with solar trackers.

Based on the main declaration of Soltec, the solar projects will be equipped with SFOne 1-in-portrait solar trackers, which enable optimized power effectiveness and lessened visual impact thanks to their reduced height compared to various other tracker setups, allowing Soltec to adhere to the ecovoltaics-related principles of minimum visual impact and also area of occupancy.

Supply to these two nuclear power plant allows Soltec to further strengthen its position in the Brazilian solar market, where its 4.6 GW record has position this Murcia-based business as a market leader. Via these projects, Soltec, which has a factory and workplaces in the state of Bahia, further contributes to neighborhood economy and proximity purchases, based on the company's concepts of ecovoltaics, the firm has actually said.

Raúl Morales, President, Soltec, mentioned on the new order, "Brazil is a market where we have been well received ever since we began procedures below in 2015. Afterwards, we have actually established ourselves as a trusted market player thanks to our cooperation with clients such as Canadian Solar and also SPIC, with whom we are more than happy to proceed working together. We are proud to team up with top-tier players as well as further add to achieving the goal of power shift with promotion of photovoltaic or pv solar energy."

In 2021, the solar tracker market was valued at $3.4 billion but its anticipated to expand greatly with a CAGR of more than 20% in between 2022 and 2030, according to Grand View Research.
