GameChange Solar is a global provider of solar trackers and fixed tilt bracket systems, and has launched FlexRail, an installation system designed for flexible module selection.
FlexRail addresses the industry challenge of solar module supply fluctuations caused by tariffs, logistics delays, and global market volatility. If the photovoltaic modules undergo changes after the manufacturing or installation of the tracker, the project may face expensive redesigns or on-site modifications. GameChange Solar's FlexRail installation system allows the same tracker design to accommodate multiple different components and minimize interference.
Nat Healy, Product Director of Genius Tracker, said, "Component supply is one of the most dynamic variables in today's utility scale solar projects. By providing trackers that support various component types, we can help customers maintain project progress and protect their financial models, ensuring smooth project progress even if they replace components later in design or installation
GameChange's latest white paper, "Component Flexibility of Single Axis Trackers: Research on FlexRails and Other Tools for Coping with Component Changes in Project Design," explores key design features to enhance component flexibility, including fixture based track systems, flexible beams, unperforated torque tubes, and low profile bearings. These elements enable utility scale solar projects to adapt to the constantly changing supply of photovoltaic modules while maintaining cost-effectiveness and construction progress.
