As solar portfolios scale, asset owners across the industry face performance degradation, such as tracker misalignment, field-aging hardware and communication faults.
Polar Racking’s Solar Asset Management Division will offer field inspections and mechanical assessments, including alignment verification and structural integrity reviews to catch issues before they impact energy yield. It will also have remote monitoring and control diagnostics to identify faults in tracking logic, network performance and system response. The division offer ongoing support and direct access to Polar’s field team to maintain performance between scheduled service visits. Polar will also have training programs for asset management teams and send monthly performance reports for projects.
“We have spent years in the field deploying racking and tracking systems across hundreds of sites in some of the most demanding environments in North America. We know what happens to these assets over time — and we know what asset owners need to protect their returns,” said Sam Alradhi, VP of operations at Polar Racking. “This division was built in direct response to what our customers were asking for: a single, trusted partner who can support them from day one through the life of the project.”
