The utility-scale solar industry is expecting much growth worldwide, creating a land use challenge. While flat desert areas are an obvious choice for solar, much land is available in parts of the world that have hilly and variable terrain. Terrain-following trackers can help with the land use challenge, by helping to put solar in place previously thought unsuitable for PV construction.
In this pv magazine Webinar, we will explore aspects of project development using terrain-following trackers including use of solar project construction design software, PVcase Ground Mount. This software helps design large-scale PV systems that follow the landscape’s natural terrain by using all-terrain trackers from Nevados.
Brian Tang and Carl Jackson, application engineers at Nevados will join to describe the benefits of using PVcase software to design terrain-following layout.
pv magazine Webinar content:
• A look at project development workflow
• Overview of the analysis of topography at preliminary layout stage
• Discussion of CAD Blocks; layout generation for complex, challenging or time-sensitive projects
• Insight into development of accurate, preliminary BOMs
Questions can be submitted beforehand in the comments window when registering or in the chat during the live webinar. Anne Fischer, senior editor at pv magazine USA, will be the moderator of this webinar.
