Various solar plant projects executed in November 2006 for a total of 80 units

The power and manufacturer flexibility and the reduced installation and maintenance costs make the MS TRACKER 10 and MS TRACKER 10+ appropriate choices for large photovoltaic plants, such as the Murillo el Fruto facility in Navarra, as well as for the small renewable energy operators' smaller installations of different sizes and power requirements. The support that PROINSO provides small developers and installers is a value-added service that MECASOLAR clients enjoy. In most cases, small developers, installers  or builders confront complex projects for the first time, and PROINSO's EXPERIENCE is one of our added values. For example, MECASOLAR solar trackers are installed in the photovoltaic solar power plants in:

• AGUARON (ZARAGOZA). -  MS TRAKER 10+, 6 UDS
• ALLEPUZ (TERUEL). -  MS TRAKER 10+, 13 UDS
• JAEN.-  MS TRACKER, 5 UDS
• SORIA.  - 40 UDS DE MS TRACKER
• REQUENA DE CAMPOS (PALENCIA). - MS TRACKER, 10 UDS

The Murchante photovoltaic solar power plant will use 150 Mecasolar trackers in its first phase and 110 more later.

The Murchante photovoltaic solar power plant will use 150 Mecasolar trackers in its first phase and 110 more trackers in its second phase. The great multi-power and multiple manufacturer FLEXIBILITY of our trackers has allowed us to install 9.52 kWp per tracker for this project. The tracker model chosen for this project is the MS TRACKER 10+. The 10-year GUARANTEE on parts and workmanship has been a key factor in the decision-making process for clients and financial entities that have financed client investments. This order, placed in 2006, marked the 428th tracker ordered and to be supplied in the first semester in the Spanish market, an undisputable demonstration of Mecasolar's prominence in said market. A total of 3,936 MWp of solar power has been supplied by our solar trackers. Considering that CNE and IDAE have predicted that around 26 MWp connected to the grid will be installed in Spain this year, we can confirm that Mecasolar's market share for the year would be 15%. It would account for more than 25% of the solar tracker installations. THE MARKET BACKS OUR TRACKERS  as one of the most innovative products with the best quality-price ratio in Europe.
