10 kW PV Solar Tracker

The Sundial Solar Trax tracker is a ground-mounted single-axis PV solar tracker structural platform that has been developed and manufactured in Ontario for the Micro-FIT Program which is a stream of the Ontario Power Authority (OPA) Feed-in Tariff (FIT) Program for renewable energy.  Using 3D modelling software for design and development of proper fabrication and installation drawings, JADE Engineers was able to reduce fabrication costs and reduce the installation time by at least 50%.

The Sundial Solar trax will follow the sun’s path throughout the day to greatly increase power production with minimal maintenance over the 20 year Micro-FIT contract.  The tracker has proven to withstand extremely high sustained winds and gusts and operate in the robust Ontario winters.
