Solar Tracker Controls | Intelligent Optimization by Nextpower

This image shows a large-scale solar power plant situated in a desert landscape. The solar panels are arranged in a grid-like pattern, covering a vast expanse of the arid, reddish-brown terrain. In the background, rugged mountains rise up, creating a dramatic and picturesque setting for this renewable energy installation. The solar panels appear to be oriented to maximize their exposure to the sun, suggesting this facility is designed to harness the abundant solar energy available in this remote, desert environment. The scale of the installation is impressive, with hundreds, if not thousands, of individual solar panels spread out across the landscape. There are no visible structures or buildings in the immediate vicinity, indicating this solar power plant is likely located in a remote, off-grid area. The lack of any visible human presence or activity further emphasizes the isolated, natural setting of this renewable energy facility. Overall, this image conveys a sense of the growing global shift towards sustainable energy solutions, with large-scale solar power plants like this one playing a crucial role in reducing reliance on fossil fuels and mitigating the impacts of climate change.

How Nextpower Controls Deliver

Nextpower control systems safeguard solar assets with both automated and manual operation. Robust communication keeps plants running without interruption, plus delivering optimal power output when it‘s most valuable.

TrueCapture

The industry’s first and most advanced intelligent control system, TrueCapture prevents yield loss in any condition and optimizes output during the day’s shoulders. By combining on-site sensors, weather forecasts, and machine learning, it consistently delivers reliable yields across both new and existing Nextpower projects worldwide.

SPC

Patented and proven across gigawatts worldwide, the latest generation of Nextpower’s Self-Powered Controller (SPC) delivers precise operation and rapid response. Powered by either a dedicated mini-PV panel or the tracker itself, it remains resilient during grid outages – providing accurate location, time, and tracker angle data in any environment.

NCU

The latest Network Control Unit (NCU) coordinates tracker operations while continuously gathering on-site component and weather data. It offers flexible operation with proven reliability and precise control. Connected to the Datahub via Ethernet or fiber optics, the NCU serves as the intelligent, resilient nerve center of the system.
