Title:
BIFACIAL PHOTOVOLTAIC MODULE, SINGLE AXIS SOLAR TRACKER AND OPERATING METHOD THEREOF
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2022/101126
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
Solar trackers are designed to withstand high wind loads, eventually by oversizing the structure and incurring in higher material cost and rendering high costs scenarios when deploying solar trackers in solar fields. The object of the invention hereby disclosed is aimed at a solar tracker and method for operating said solar tracker that yields a solution highly structured solar trackers by providing a single horizontal axis solar tracker associated to at least one bifacial photovoltaic module. The single horizontal axis solar tracker of the invention has a bifacial photovoltaic module associated to the torque tube by means of a joint fixture along one of the sides of the bifacial solar module in such way that the solar module jointly moves when the torque tube rotates. Said single horizontal axis solar tracker of the invention may be operating according to the time of the day, consequently to the available sunlight, in such a way that face of the bifacial photovoltaic module associated to the torque tube is facing the sun. A bifacial photovoltaic module is also provided herein.
