Portfolio

EcoSolaris continues to innovate in the field of renewable energy, offering customized solutions for each customer's needs. A recent example is the installation of a 6.5 kWp solar tracker in the courtyard of a residence, demonstrating once again our commitment to innovation and to providing optimal solutions for our customers' energy needs. This project illustrates how cutting-edge technology can be harmoniously integrated into a residential environment, transforming an ordinary backyard into a source of clean and sustainable energy.

Why a Solar Tracker?

A solar tracker is a smart system that allows photovoltaic panels to track the movement of the sun across the sky throughout the day. This technology optimizes the angle of incidence of the sun's rays on the surface of the panels, maximizing the amount of energy captured and converted into electricity. Compared to a fixed system, a solar tracker can generate up to 25% more energy, depending on location and weather conditions.

Key benefits of a Solar Tracker:

• Maximized energy production: By tracking the sun, photovoltaic panels capture more energy throughout the day, regardless of the sun's position in the sky. This translates into consistent and predictable power generation, even on days with variable sunshine.

• Increased energy efficiency: The system generates more energy with the same area of panels compared to a fixed system. This means that more power can be achieved with fewer panels, optimizing available space and reducing investment costs.

• Increased return on investment: Higher energy production leads to higher savings on electricity bills and a faster return on investment. In the long run, a solar tracker proves to be a very profitable investment, generating significant financial benefits for the owner.

• Adaptability: Solar trackers can be installed on the ground, adapting to various configurations and needs. This flexibility makes them suitable for a wide range of applications, from residential to commercial and industrial buildings.

• Durability: Solar tracking systems are designed to withstand extreme weather conditions, including high winds, heavy snow and high temperatures. This ensures long-term reliable operation and reduces maintenance costs.

System operation

The solar tracker tracks the movement of the sun across the sky throughout the day, orienting the photovoltaic panels in the optimal position to capture the maximum amount of solar energy. The solar energy captured by the panels is converted into direct current, which is then converted into alternating current by the inverter. The electricity produced is used to supply the consumers in the home, and any surplus is injected into the electricity network, according to the regulations in force.

The monitoring system allows real-time tracking of system performance, including energy production, consumption and component status. This data is useful for optimizing the operation of the system and for identifying possible problems. Also, the monitoring system can provide information about the savings achieved and the positive impact on the environment.
