Introduction

World population is expected to double by the middle of the 21st century (Global Energy, 1998). This

will consequently result in a 3-5 fold increase in world economic output by the year 2050, and a 10-15

fold increase by the year 2100. Consequently, Primary energy requirements are expected to increase

by approximately three folds by the year 2050 and five folds by the year 2100. This is expected to

exert tremendous pressure on primary energy supplier.

Energy has an established positive correlation with economic growth. Providing adequate, affordable

and clean energy is a prerequisite for eradicating poverty and improving productivity. The inevitable

increase in the use of fossil fuels alongside a country’s economic growth presents associated side

effects of threat to the nation’s energy security, as well as environmental degradation through climate

change. A feasible alternative to the indiscriminate burning of fossil fuels lies in the accelerated use of

renewable energy. In tropical countries, which have sunshine almost throughout the year in most

parts, solar energy is one of the most viable options.

Energy from the sun has been used to provide electricity for many years. This form of renewable

energy occupies less space compared to the space occupied by hydropower projects. Developing

countries can cover all their demands for energy by solar systems with 0.1% of the land area.

In a properly designed and constructed

power plant Solar module reliability should

be the greatest limiter, Inverter reliability

and warranty support should be the

second concerns. Tracker drives and

controller are least impacting.

Competitive Benefits


Unique Features - Widest Mis-Alignment Tolerance

•East/west tilt, north/south tilt, and axial twist tolerances have been expanded to make installation fast and easy.

•More than three times the misalignment tolerance of other tracking systems. •Quick & simple assembly.


Unique Features - Self-aligning connections

• Assembly of torque tubes is fast and requires minimal training of assembly workers. •Low labor rate.


Unique Features

•No field welding or fabrication: Installation delays and staffing problems are avoided.

•Fall-To-Flat: G10 Quantum tracking systems are designed to ensure that panels relax to a horizontal position when the drive system is powered down, to

reduce risk of damage to panels. •COTS parts: All critical components are commercial off-the-shelf parts, so replacements will be available from

multiple suppliers for the life of the system. •Long life bearings: Smooth, quiet, stainless-steel

bearings lined with PTFE. •COTS fluid power system: Cost-effective and reliable,

with non-toxic biodegradable fluid. •Optimized for each site: ViaSol optimizes the G10

Quantum system based on site conditions, to minimize cost.
