A 100MW Bundaberg solar farm will be supplied with Infinity, a tracking technology in what will amount to the country’s highest wind speed design tracker yet built.

European solar tracker company PVHardware will be supplying the extreme weather tracker which will be the 18th large-scale project in Australia.

“Our newest tracking solution is equipped with cutting-edge features tailored to withstand extreme weather conditions and will play a crucial role in ensuring the success of this project, and future projects to come,” PVH Australia country manager Alejandro Cantos says.

“The importance of efficient green infrastructure processes is increasingly evident in the market for both developers and the government.”

Infinity’s versatile string interconnectivity offers a range of optimisation options. For example, its Unlinked mode enables independent row triggering, enhancing operational effectiveness. When equipped with PVH’s advanced SCADA and control system, DBox5, the tracker’s capabilities are extended.

Infinity will be deployed at its NSW facility for training purposes. The technology is designed to increase installation efficiencies and reduce the need for earthworks, meaning solar farms can be built faster and at a lower cost.
