Build on Challenging Terrain—Without Slowing Your Project Down

DOWNLOAD THE CASE STUDY
How one utility-scale solar project reduced construction time from ~12 months to ~3.5 months on a sloped, wind-prone site.

 

Sloped terrain and high wind conditions can delay utility-scale solar projects—driving up cost, complexity, and risk.

Grading, permitting, and overactive wind stow strategies can all extend timelines and limit performance.

ARRAY OmniTrack® is designed to help developers build faster on complex sites—without unnecessary earthworks or energy tradeoffs.

The Challenge: Terrain and Wind Working Against Your Timeline

For developers in regions like EMEA, site conditions can introduce compounding risks:

  • Grading and earthworks can add time, cost, and environmental impact
  • Certification requirements may delay project timelines
  • Traditional wind protection strategies can overcorrect, limiting energy capture

The result: Projects take longer to build—and may underperform once operational.

The Solution: Terrain-Adaptive Tracking with Passive Wind Response

The ARRAY OmniTrack® is a terrain-following solar tracker system designed for utility-scale solar projects on sloped and uneven sites.

OmniTrack is engineered to:

  • Follow natural land contours to reduce the need for site rework
  • Simplify installation with fewer system components
  • Respond to wind conditions in real time without added system complexity
Case Study Snapshot

The Erica Project (Spain)

Developed by Ríos Renovables and Aspiravi, the Erica Project presented a combination of sloped terrain and frequent wind exposure.

Using ARRAY OmniTrack®, the project team was able to:

  • Minimize site disruption with near-zero ground movement
  • Significantly reduce construction time from potentially ~12 months to ~3.5 months
  • Achieve measurable improvements in energy production versus traditional wind stow approaches

 

“We would absolutely recommend OmniTrack. ARRAY’s team really listened to what we needed and had this well-designed, highly adaptable product that exceeded our expectations.”

— Felipe Enrique Bianco, General Manager, Ríos Renovables
