Array and DNV Release Report on Solar Tracker Wind Stow Strategies’ Energy Impact
07 5월 2024 - 5:35AM
Array Technologies (NASDAQ: ARRY), a leading provider of solar
tracking solutions, confirmed in a new study that its safe, passive
wind stow solution can significantly optimize energy production.
Array collaborated with DNV Energy USA (DNV) to publish a
comprehensive report titled “Energy Impact of Different Solar
Tracker Wind Stow Strategies,” outlining the benefits of safe,
passive wind stow technology in solar farms.
The analysis focused on evaluating the energy
losses associated with various tracker wind stow methods and
considered multiple variables, including wind velocity stowing
thresholds, wind direction, dwell time, stow exit wind velocity
threshold, stow angle, and stow direction. The report’s findings
highlight the improved energy production of passive stow strategies
in all wind regions, particularly in medium to high wind regions.
Array’s DuraTrack® and OmniTrack™ products, equipped with patented,
safe, passive stow technology, demonstrate substantial energy
production gains and improved reliability compared to active stow
alternatives.
Key insights from the report include:
- Proven Energy
Gains: The study validates that Array's new safe,
passive stow technology significantly boosts energy production
during wind stow events, preserving 99.95% of energy on
average—effectively minimizing losses to just 0.05%. This is a
substantial improvement over the average 2.8% loss experienced with
active stow strategies, which spiked as high as 4.3% in the study.
This technology not only optimizes energy production but also
enhances overall operational efficiency at utility-scale solar
sites.
- Reliability and
Stability: Array’s patented, passive stow design enhances
energy efficiency and improves the reliability and stability of the
tracker system, allowing for longer row designs and ensuring
fail-safe wind stow mechanisms.
- Operational
Efficiency: Passive stow strategies not only deliver
significant energy savings but also enhance operational efficiency
by reducing downtime and maintenance requirements compared to
active stow methods.
“Array Technologies is proud to present the
findings of our collaborative research with DNV,” said Aaron
Gabelnick, chief strategy and technology officer at Array. “This
report proves the real benefits of safe, passive wind stow
technology, and it reinforces our commitment to providing reliable
and efficient solar tracking solutions that optimize energy
production while enhancing system durability in high-speed wind
environments.”
