Ingenieros supervisando la construcción de una planta fotovoltaica bajo un contrato EPC (Engineering, Procurement and Construction).

EPC (Engineering, Procurement and Construction) is the most widely used contractual model for large-scale renewable energy projects. Find out what it involves, what its phases are, the responsibilities of the EPC contractor, and why this model is key to the financing and implementation of solar power stations, wind farms and energy storage systems.

Solar tracker: what it is, how it works and its importance in a photovoltaic plant

by
A single-axis solar tracker that orients photovoltaic panels to maximise solar energy production at a photovoltaic plant.

A solar tracker is a smart structure that orients photovoltaic panels to follow the sun’s path in order to maximise energy production. Find out how it works, what types are available and why it has become a key technology in large-scale solar power stations.
