Arctech Solar: Transforming India's Solar Landscape

Arctech Solar, a global leader in solar tracking and racking solutions, has made remarkable strides in the Indian solar market over the past eight years. With a strong commitment to innovation and sustainability, Arctech has played a pivotal role in shaping India's renewable energy landscape.

Achieving Milestones in the Indian Solar Market

Since 2015, Arctech Solar has been a prominent presence in the Indian market. Over the years, they have successfully completed numerous significant projects, including a 1.7GW project in 2020 and a massive 2.8GW project in 2022. Their track record proudly includes the commissioning of over 5 gigawatts of solar trackers, demonstrating a proven track record of performance.

In August 2022, Arctech Solar marked a major milestone by launching its first joint venture factory in India, Jash Energy, with an annual capacity of 3GW.

Setting Apart in the Competitive Solar Industry

As the regional head of Arctech Solar in India, the company's focus on service and quality sets them apart in the competitive Indian solar industry. They prioritise customer needs by understanding local and individual requirements. Their solar solutions have significantly contributed to the growth of solar energy adoption in India. By increasing energy generation, reducing carbon emissions, empowering communities, creating jobs, and introducing advanced technologies, Arctech Solar has made clean energy more accessible and impactful.

Adapting to a Changing Landscape

India's renewable energy sector has been rapidly evolving, and Arctech Solar has adapted to these changes and evolving policy frameworks. To align with India's production-linked incentive scheme (PLI), Arctech established its first joint venture factory dedicated to solar trackers in India last year. Located in Mundra, Gujarat, the factory has achieved self-sufficiency by locally sourcing steel for manufacturing key components of Arctech's solar trackers, showcasing a commitment to long-term localisation in India.

Notable Achievements

Arctech Solar's remarkable achievements include being India's largest supplier of solar trackers in 2020, holding a 45% market share in 2021, and successfully completing the shipment of 1.7GW of cutting-edge 1P SkyLine trackers in Rajasthan in challenging circumstances posed by the COVID-19 pandemic.

A Success Story: The 860MW AEML Solar Power Plant

Arctech Solar's impact on India's solar energy capacity is exemplified by the 860MW AEML solar power plant, the largest bifacial+tracker power generation project in India. Situated in a complex desert region with high wind speeds, Arctech implemented its renowned SkyLine solar tracking solution, known for its adaptability on varying terrains. With the help of AI Smart Control technology, SkyLine maximises power output by overcoming shadow effects, ensuring stable performance even in harsh weather conditions.

Innovation and Sustainability

Arctech Solar's commitment to innovation aligns seamlessly with its sustainable approach to solar energy solutions. With a focus on research and development, Arctech has launched the world's first PV company-owned numerical wind tunnel, enabling in-depth analysis for solar power plants. The company holds more than 410 IP patents, reflecting its dedication to advancing solar technology.

Contribution to Clean Energy Goals

Arctech's solar tracking and racking solutions have significantly contributed to India's clean energy goals by increasing energy yield, reducing carbon emissions, and providing more cost-effective solutions. Their patented multi-point drive mechanism technology has been instrumental in achieving up to 2% more energy yield per year and lowering the levelised cost of energy. Smart backtracking algorithms optimise tracker tilt in real time, avoiding shading effects and generating additional power output.

Collaboration with Local Partners

Arctech Solar collaborates with local partners and stakeholders to ensure seamless project execution and support government initiatives. Their local joint venture company and manufacturing facility focus on building a robust supply chain in India. This approach aligns with both clean energy objectives and economic goals.

Future Initiatives

Looking ahead, Arctech Solar's presence in India holds exciting prospects. The colossal Khavada project, with the largest solar capacity in India, underscores their commitment to renewable energy expansion. The company's commitment to innovation drives the introduction of novel materials and designs into the Indian market, ensuring cost-effective solutions. Arctech is diversifying its commitment to sustainable energy solutions, including solar carports, fixed structures, and more.

Shaping the Future of Solar Technology

Arctech Solar envisions its role in shaping the future of solar technology in India and globally. The company's mission-driven approach focuses on core offerings such as solar tracking and racking systems, BIPV (Building Integrated Photovoltaics), energy storage solutions, and more. With a global network and a commitment to advancing renewable energy, Arctech Solar continues to be a driving force in the clean energy transition.
