Sedona Solar Technology of Flagstaff and Maruntech Enterprises Pvt. Ltd. of Chennai, India have announced a partnership for large photovoltaic projects in India, beginning with a 5 million watt project in the spring of this year. The initial project will be built on five sites in India, using technology developed by Sedona Solar Technology. Funding is being provided by Tapal Steel Pvt., a leading Indian steel company.
While evaluating various technologies for increased energy output from photovoltaic (solar electric) power installations, our team decided that the innovative InteliTrack Rail Tracking System developed by Sedona was the way forward., according to B. Deepak Rai, Director of Maruntech. It offers the benefits of dual axis tracking at lower total cost of installation, and lower operating and maintenance costs.
Matt Kesler, Sedonas CEO, added, This will be our first megawatt-scale project in Asia, and will allow us to prove that our technology is cost-effective for our partner, Maruntech, as well as for energy consumers in India. Maruntech is primarily a design and engineering company, located in Chennai (formerly known as Madras). Based in Flagstaff, Sedona Solar Technology provides tracking systems which increase the amount of energy produced by each solar panel.
