TecnoSun Solar USA Inc., a provider of solar tracking systems and the U.S. branch of Germany-based TecnoSun Solar AG, has begun operations in Toledo, Ohio.
‘Our goal is to become the premier manufacturer of solar tracking systems in North America by leveraging the German engineering excellence from our parent company with the American manufacturing expertise available locally,’ says Greg Knudson, CEO of TecnoSun Solar USA.
TecnoSun Solar USA will be housed at the University of Toledo's Nietzsche Commercialization Complex and is expected to have demonstration systems operating at locations on the university campus by early fall. The firm says it will offer single-axis and dual-axis PV tracking systems featuring EcoSystem, a control system that collects real-time atmospheric data to optimize operating efficiencies while repositioning trackers and the solar modules during severe weather conditions.
