Floating solar bracket manufacturer Ciel&Terre has developed WattRack, a new type of bracket with higher panel density than the company's previous models. WattRack is capable of installing 2.2 megawatts of solar energy on a single water surface (almost 2.5 acres).
This new type of bracket places the module in an east-west direction, has a new track installation system, and no longer has maintenance walkways between panel rows. On the contrary, Ciel&Terre created a small car that can move on solar modules so that operators can still perform maintenance. The load capacity of the car is 300 kilograms, and the maximum speed is 5 kilometers per hour.
Through this system, maintenance operations have become faster, simpler, and safer, "the company stated in a press release. The operations team no longer needs to manually carry devices and can work in a safe environment
WattRack has joined Ciel&Terre's existing floating solar bracket series, including Fusio, a triangular bracket that forms a honeycomb like array when assembled; And Hydrelio, its flagship product floating bracket, can work on water bodies with varying depths and has a 15 year history in the market.
