GameChange Solar is proud to have been selected by Tata Power, a leading
Independent Power Producer in India and part of Tata Group. This is the largest
solar project utilizing single-axis trackers in India and GameChange Solar's
Genius Tracker(TM) (
) 1P was selected for the project because of the challenging ground conditions
and high winds experienced in the area. The Genius Tracker(TM) (
) is engineered specifically for these conditions.
The project, which was only partially constructed at the time, withstood the
Tauktae cyclone when it hit in May of 2021. This was the strongest cyclone to
strike Gujarat since 1998 and had wind speeds in excess of 160 km/h and
uprooted trees & electricity poles. Due to the quality engineering and
construction of the Genius Tracker(TM) (
), no damage was caused to the portion of the facility installed at that time.
GameChange Solar also demonstrated its commitment to India as more than 20% of
the materials for the Genius Tracker(TM) (
) came from within the country. GameChange Solar is targeting to locally source
more than 50% of the parts for its systems on all future projects in India.
Vikas Bansal, Chief Operating Officer, International for GameChange Solar,
stated, "We were pleased to have Genius Tracker(TM) (
) selected for the Ahmedabad project. We are looking forward to bringing
GameChange Solar's cutting-edge Genius Tracker(TM) (
) technology to more projects in India. As a global leader in the solar
industry, we will strive to make an impact on the clean energy supply
throughout the Indian subcontinent."
