PVH unveils solar tracker AxoneDuo Infinity: Spanish solar company PVH has launched its latest solar tracking system the AxoneDuo Infinity which will work with different terrain conditions to ensure efficient energy production, according to a statement. The tech allows rows of solar modules to be interconnected in various configurations or to independent operation with individual motors to increase flexibility and adaptability for each project. The system features control and monitoring systems like DBox5, which uses artificial intelligence and machine learning to detect failures and predict threats to the structure.
PVH's tech is already in the region: PVH opened its first regional manufacturing facility producing PV structures, solar tracking systems, and robotic cleaning devices in Saudi Arabia in 2021. The company is supplying Neom with 2.97 GW peak (GWp) worth of solar trackers for the solar farms powering its USD 8.4 bn green hydrogen plant, and providing 1.7 GW of solar trackers to the USD 2.2 bn Al Shuaibah project. PVH is also supplying the Larsen & Toubro Ar Rass solar project with 805 MW of solar trackers.
