As global PV module supply chains become increasingly unpredictable, due to impacts from tariffs, fluctuating prices, and sudden technological shifts, developers face escalating risks of modules changing late in project development. This pv magazine webinar explores how structural flexibility in single-axis tracker design can mitigate these risks, preserving both schedule and project economics.
Learn how the Genius Tracker’s flexible design architecture empowers solar developers and asset owners to lock in procurement earlier, hedge against supply volatility, and maintain profitability in a rapidly changing solar market.
Drawing from a real-world case study, experts from GameChange Solar and DEPCOM Power will demonstrate how adaptable features such as, unpunched torque tubes, and low-profile bearings, enable seamless module substitutions even after fabrication.
The webinar will examine how global trends in module tariffs, supply chain disruptions and price volatility are impacting utility-scale project planning. We will review how tracker system design enables projects to adapt to a wide range of modules, freeing up flexibility in procurement.
pv magazine Webinar content:
• How tracker procurement can be used to protect project schedules and budgets as safe harbour deadlines approach
