Ideematec Announces World’s Largest Single-Axis Tracker Solar Project

 

The global solar tracking manufacturer will supply 800MW of its Bifacial Horizon plus™ systems for Qatar’s leading landmark solar project in Al Kharsaah

DOHA, Qatar, November 3, 2020 – Ideematec, the leading global supplier of solar tracking systems, today announced that it will supply 800 megawatts (MW) of its Bifacial optimized Horizon Plus™ solar tracker for the world’s biggest power plant using a two-in-portrait (2P) single axis tracker.

The project is located in AL-Kharsaah, approximately 80 kilometers west of the capital Doha. The solar facility will generate enough clean energy to meet ten percent of peak electricity demand in the state of Qatar. It is on schedule to be fully operational before the 2022 World Cup and will support the Qatar National Vision 2030 for sustainable development by facilitating local decarbonization. The project is the third-largest solar plant in the world and the first utility-scale solar project in Qatar.

“We are honored to be chosen by leading global companies to supply our Horizon Plus™ solar tracker for this record-breaking project,” said Mario Eckl, CEO of Ideematec. “This milestone power plant will strengthen our Middle-East and North African (MENA) portfolio, which is on pace to total 1.6 gigawatts (GW) by 2021.”

To boost energy production and reduce maintenance costs, the plant will be one of the first in the world to utilize robots for ongoing and proactive cleaning. This is made possible by the tracker’s record-breaking length of 190 meters. Ideematec will support the project’s installation and on-site logistics and commissioning.

Ideematec has supplied trackers for some of the largest PV plants worldwide, including projects in Australia, Jordan, Morocco and Europe. In 2019 the company successfully delivered four flagship projects, each generating a significant contribution of solar energy to their region. With more than 860 MW trackers already delivered and in-operation in the MENA region, Ideematec’s Horizon Trackers are now stabilizing and exceeding their 2019 ranking as third leading supplier in the market.

Ideematec enthüllt Horizont L: Tec Solar Tracker auf der Solar Power International 2020

,

Das globale Solar-Tracking-Unternehmen enthüllt die patentierte Verriegelungstechnologie </ em> </ p>

Neusling, Deutschland, 20. Oktober 2020 – Ideematec Inc., der weltweit führende Anbieter von Solar-Tracking-Systemen, hat heute auf der Solar Power International 2020 seinen Horizon L: Tec Solar-Tracker vorgestellt. Der neue 2P-Tracker (Two Module-In-Portrait) verfügt über eine patentierte Verriegelungstechnologie, die Module gegen Torsionsgalopp durch extreme Windlasten in Position hält, um die Wartungskosten zu senken und die Produktlebensdauer zu verlängern. Der Tracker lässt sich nahtlos in bifaciale Module integrieren, um mehr Energie pro Tracker zu erzeugen, und nimmt besonders große Photovoltaikmodule auf. Die Paneele können in einem Stauwinkel von null Grad gegen Winde von bis zu 180 Meilen pro Stunde bleiben.

Horizon L: Tec baut auf der charakteristischen entkoppelten Antriebstechnologie von Ideematec auf, die dynamische Lasten in Grundpfosten und von Getrieben weg transportiert. Ideematec-Tracker benötigen viermal weniger Getriebe und Motoren als herkömmliche Tracker. Dies reduziert die Installationszeit und die Wartungskosten erheblich und verbessert die Gesamtsystemeffizienz.

„Diese Innovation behebt ein großes Problem auf dem globalen Solarmarkt“, sagte Mario Eckl, CEO von Ideematec. „Mit verstärkter Verriegelungstechnologie können große Solarprojekte auch in schwierigen Klimazonen und Regionen Strom erzeugen. Dieses verbesserte Design reagiert auf die steigende Nachfrage nach Geräten, die sowohl schnell installiert werden können, um die Baukosten zu senken, als auch für Worst-Case-Szenarien ausgelegt sind. Dies zeigt unser Engagement für die Schaffung zuverlässiger Lösungen, die unseren Weg in eine belastbare, saubere Energiezukunft beschleunigen. “

Mit einer Länge von 190 Metern ist Horizon L: Tec der längste Solartracker auf dem Weltmarkt und wird im Januar 2021 in allen Märkten erhältlich sein. Bald darauf plant das Unternehmen die Ankündigung einer 1P-Version (One-Module-in-Portrait) des Trackers mit derselben Technologie, mit der Kunden beide Optionen von einem einzigen Lieferanten erwerben können.

Während der diesjährigen virtuellen Messe auf der SPI am 21. und 22. Oktober bietet das Ideematec-Team Demonstrationen an, die vom Hauptsitz in Deutschland aus ausgestrahlt werden. Weitere Informationen zu den Demonstrationen erhalten Sie unter outreach@ideematec.com.
