Arctech SkyLight, Newly-launched Tailored Solar Tracker for the LATAM Market, Wins New Orders

Published

on

SAO PAULO, Sept. 5, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Arctech, the world’s leading solar tracking, racking and BIPV solutions provider, has unveiled its latest innovation: SkyLight, a tracker set to revolutionize the solar energy sector. The launch took place during an exclusive event on August 26th called SkyLight Solar Synergy, held in partnership with JA Solar and Solis – renowned manufacturers of solar modules and inverters respectively.

The 1P Linked Dual-row Solar Tracking System SkyLight is designed with a single-point drive mechanism, catering to low wind speed regions, particularly in the Latin American market. It offers an optimal combination of reliability, safety, stability, and cost-effectiveness.

Equipped with self-developed slew drives that allow for an operating angle of ±60° with tracking accuracy ≤0.2°, SkyLight demonstrates consistent and reliable performance throughout its entire life cycle. Meanwhile, the design of the single-point drive mechanism reduces the number of components in SkyLight compared to conventional solar trackers, resulting in a reduction in production costs.

Additionally, by incorporating new split-design polymer bearings that eliminate pipe threading and calibration, SkyLight significantly reduces installation time by 30% and cuts down on both installation and maintenance costs by 10%. Furthermore, SkyLight’s connectors made from high polymer material internally connect to the torque tube, providing a more precise fit while reducing installation costs by 30%. Featuring an innovative square torque tube with rounded corners also enhances SkyLight’s bending and torsional capacity while minimizing steel utilization.

SkyLight, functioning as a terrain-following solar tracker, effectively reduces cut and fill earthworks by approximately 50%, resulting in reduced construction costs and minimal disruption to soil and vegetation, thereby optimizing ecological benefits. Additionally, with its high adaptability to terrains of up to 20% N-S slope, SkyLight provides fault tolerance of up to 15% for adjacent row foundations. This enhances land utilization rates and installation capacity while accommodating various scenarios.

Furthermore, Arctech’s third-generation AI intelligent algorithm enables SkyLight to achieve power generation gain superposition of up to 8%, maximizing energy output and reducing LCOE.

Mr. Cai Hao, President of Arctech, announced, “The launch of SkyLight marks a pivotal moment for our company and the solar industry. We are proud to introduce a product that not only meets but exceeds the demands of modern solar projects, offering unparalleled efficiency, reliability, and sustainability. SkyLight is a testament to our ongoing commitment to driving innovation in the solar sector.”

Fortunately, following the launch of SkyLight, Arctech secured orders for this groundbreaking solution during Intersolar South America 2024. In addition to two projects that will implement SkyLight – namely a 468MW project in Bahia, Brazil and a DG Package II initiative with a capacity of 160MW located in Brazil’s Northeast region – Arctech also secured another project: the 236MW SkyLine II project situated in Mendoza, Argentina.

With the launch of SkyLight, Arctech reaffirms its commitment to leading the transformation of the solar market, offering products that not only follow but define global trends in innovation and sustainability.

RIYADH, Saudi Arabia, Sept. 14, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — The Global AI Summit (GAIN) in Riyadh concluded on a high, after the summit welcomed more than 30,000 delegates from across the globe over three days. The live stream of the summit, organized by the Saudi Data and AI Authority (SDAIA), received 3.7m views.

Building on the success of previous editions, GAIN 2024 featured more than 450 speakers from 100 countries, participating in 150 sessions. It also witnessed over 25 launches and announcements, and facilitated the signing of over 80 agreements and Memoranda of Understanding (MoUs).

The summit has grown exponentially since its inception in 2020. Its growing prominence reflects the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia’s role in advancing AI capabilities as it positions itself as a global leader in this space.

The key output from the summit was the need for governments and policy makers to take global action to ensure that AI technology evolves for the good of humanity. Central to responsible evolution is an ethical framework and robust governance.

To support the advancement of AI ethics and governance, SDAIA announced the Riyadh Charter of Artificial Intelligence for the Islamic World in collaboration with the Islamic World Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (ICESCO). This promotes ethical AI grounded in Islamic values and principles, as well as sustainable development through international cooperation.

SDAIA has played a pivotal role in forging key collaborations to strengthen local and regional AI solutions, signing MoUs with Microsoft Arabia to develop Arabic language models, IBM for a Center of Excellence in Generative AI technologies, and NVIDIA to scale AI infrastructure across the Kingdom.

The summit also marked several major milestones. Alongside the unveiling of ALLaM, the world’s most advanced Arabic Language Model, other diverse initiatives such as the Global AI Community, the THAKAI Platform, and guidelines for addressing deepfake technology.

Furthermore, the launch of the Generative AI Center of Excellence by the Digital Cooperation Organization (DCO), the agreement to open an International Center for AI Research and Ethics (ICAIRE) as a UNESCO Category 2 Center, further underscored the impact of GAIN 2024.

The summit itself provided the platform for companies from all over the world to showcase the latest AI technologies and innovations, including AI generated avatars, AI generated artwork, and even Robotic bar staff serving beverages.

The summit closed with an inspirational speech from the Director of Saudi Arabia’s National Information Center, His Excellency Dr. Esam Alwagait, in which he thanked participants:

“Your candid perspectives have not only inspired us with the vision of what lies ahead, but have also grounded us in the realities we must face. Together, we have not only imagined the future of AI, but have also made it real by addressing the challenges and identifying the enablers needed to truly unlock its potential.”

He added:

“It has been incredibly inspiring to see the world come together here in Riyadh, united by momentum to make AI work for everyone. The commitment to collaborative action has been evident throughout the summit.” 

The success of GAIN 2024 ensures that the Kingdom’s AI infrastructure will be significantly strengthened and has cemented Saudi Arabia position at the center of global AI.
