Decades of Proven Tracker Performance
When it comes to utility-scale solar, long-term reliability is everything. At ARRAY, we engineer solar tracking systems designed to perform through decades of operation, helping developers and owners secure project value well beyond the first few years of commissioning.
One of the best examples is the Alamosa Solar Project in Colorado—a groundbreaking for its time 8 MW installation that came online in 2008. Then, it was the largest utility-scale solar project in the United States, powered by ARRAY’s DuraTrack® tracking system. Nearly two decades later, Alamosa continues to deliver reliable energy production despite extreme weather swings, high winds, and temperature shifts from summer highs to winter lows of –50°F.
Inside the Case Study, You’ll Learn:
- How the DuraTrack system was engineered to handle challenging terrain and environmental conditions.
- Why Alamosa remains a field-proven benchmark for tracker longevity.
- The role of ARRAY’s evolving product portfolio, including ARRAY SmarTrack® optimization software, in driving greater performance and value over time.
- Lessons for developers, EPCs, and investors seeking proven solutions that support lower OpEx and long-term ROI.
This case study demonstrates how engineered simplicity and relentless reliability—core ARRAY values—translate into projects that stand the test of time. While consumer technology from 2007 may be obsolete by today’s standards, the Alamosa project highlights the difference a tracker built for endurance can make.
