Arctech, a global leader in solar tracking and racking solutions, has secured a 1.5GW order for its 1P single-axis solar tracker, SkyLine II from PowerChina. The order is for a solar project in Al Ajban, UAE, signifying a strong entry for Arctech into the Middle East market in 2025.
Solar PV Plant to Power 160,000 Homes
Once completed, the plant is expected to produce green electricity that will power around 160,000 households. It will also reduce Abu Dhabi's annual carbon emissions by 2.4 million tons, significantly contributing to green development and supporting the region's energy transition.
Aligned with the "UAE Energy Strategy 2050," which targets zero-emission clean energy, the 1.5GW Al Ajban Solar PV plant will rank among the world’s largest single-site solar plants upon completion.
Arctech Targets 15GW Capacity in the Middle East by 2025
