PHOTOVOLTAIC TRACKING SYSTEMS
AGRI-PV: The perfect symbiosis of agriculture & energy
OUR SOLUTIONS
In contrast to the south-facing solar parks commonly found in Germany, tracking systems for solar modules have been used in the international environment for decades .
In this process, the solar modules are automatically and optimally aligned in north-south rows following the sun's path from sunrise to sunset.
These tracking systems increase the electricity yield by approximately 30% compared to fixed modules with the same solar module power and are increasingly used in Central Europe - including Germany - due to their high cost-effectiveness and proven technology .
AGRI-PV
Agri-PV is short for agri-photovoltaics and describes the DUAL USE of agricultural land for generating solar power and growing crops.
Solar modules are installed above farmland, enabling the simultaneous production of food or renewable raw materials and clean electricity.
This technology promotes LAND EFFICIENCY, climate protection, and rural development, as it opens up new economic opportunities for farmers and reduces competition for scarce land resources.
Open space PV
Ground-mounted PV is the generation of solar power with photovoltaic systems that are installed on open ground rather than on roofs or facades.
These systems are usually built in solar parks on fallow land or former industrial areas, are more flexible in their orientation than rooftop systems and, thanks to the highest possible density of solar modules, enable an OPTIMUM of ENERGY YIELD per area.
OUR INNOVATIVE TECHNOLOGY
1
foundation
The foundation consists of EARTH SCREWS with a length of 1.60 to 2.00 meters.
These enable FAST INSTALLATION & PERFECT HOLD for any floor with a load of over 3 tons.
2
stand
The supports with factory- preassembled drive mechanism are quick to assemble, thus eliminating the possibility of incorrect alignment on site.
SET UP - SCREW TIGHT - DONE!
3
top table
The solar modules are mounted to an upper table using OUR PRE-ASSEMBLY SYSTEM .
This is then placed on the supports VERY COMFORTABLY & EASILY .
WHY COBRASOL?
What are THE ADVANTAGES of our COBRA TRACKING SYSTEM over competitor solutions on the market?
QUICK & EASY ASSEMBLY
Self-assembly is possible in three simple steps. This makes assembly extremely COST-EFFECTIVE and quick to use. TIME is MONEY .
AVOIDING ASSEMBLY ERRORS
PREFABRICATED ELEMENTS prevent complicated and faulty assembly. This also saves money.
MORE PERFORMANCE PER AREA
Our system allows for very CLOSE SPACING in the field. This means more rows fit into the available area = MORE YIELD
FREE PASSAGE BETWEEN THE ROWS
Our PV tracking system allows you to drive directly beneath the solar modules. SHORT ROUTES for management.
FLOOR-FRIENDLY INSTALLATION
The VALUABLE SOIL is not subjected to as much stress during cultivation. This means NO FAILURES or DELAYS during sowing and harvesting.
MANAGEMENT OF TALL CROPS
Classic field cultivation & yield through solar energy even for tall crops such as corn due to HIGH CONSTRUCTION HEIGHT .
Yield is EVERYTHING!
Agriculture + solar power = double yield
In addition to traditional agriculture, agri-PV systems in the field enable DOUBLE USE of the same area.
This not only generates income through harvesting, but also CONTINUOUS INCOME through electricity production.
Thus, THE TOTAL YIELD PER HECTARE IS MULTIPLIED and the area generates yields all year round.
Prefabricated elements:
Faster + easier installation = low costs
Assembly in 3 EASY STEPS :
1. Install SCREW FOUNDATIONS
2. Set up SUPPORTS
3. Prefabricated UPPER TABLES put on
- FAST & AFFORDABLE built
- very SOIL-FRIENDLY INSTALLATION
- optional SELF ASSEMBLY saves
additional cash
