Arctech Solar has entered into contract with Biosar Australia Pty Ltd., subsidiary of Greek construction group AKTOR, for the construction of a 256.5MWp solar power plant located in Ouyen, Victoria, Australia. This plant is expected to be completed by July 2019.
The project will deploy SkySmart, a high-efficiency solar tracking system which can handle a N-S slope of 20%, uses only 219 foundations per MW and provides double pitch drive-through space for module cleaning vehicles. With its advantage of efficient factory pre-assembly, SkySmart brings economic value to contractors by minimizing the field installation labor cost on site.
This contract signifies Arctech Solar's entry into the Australian PV market.
