When trackers don’t talk
Single-axis trackers rotate throughout the day, continuously reshaping the radio environment that keeps each row of modules communicating with the plant controller.
AI Summary
Single‑axis solar trackers rotate all day, constantly changing the radio environment that lets each module row talk to the plant controller. In many installations, the wireless network design is poor, reducing reliability and power yield. Track N Co’s CEO Jérôme Arliaud says that simulating signal propagation against panel angle and plant layout can remove communication blind spots. The company applied this method to a five‑plant, 49 MW retrofit, eliminating the need for field trial and error.
