ALBUQUERQUE, New Mexico, Jan. 24, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Array Technologies, Inc. (ATI), the pioneer and global leader in solar tracking solutions, is pleased to announce its expansion to the Middle East, North Africa and Turkey (MENAT) region. ATI continues to expand its leadership in this emerging solar tracking market by securing multiple utility-scale projects and opening a new office in Abu Dhabi. The company has also received an innovation award courtesy of the Middle East Solar Industry Association (MESIA) and the World Future Energy Summit (WFES).
ATI is partnering with STC Elektronik to provide solar trackers for four projects totaling 24 MW in Turkey. The portfolio will be built in the first half of 2017. The purchase agreement for these projects located in Sugözü Mevki, Sazli, Söke, and Aydın was signed last week at WFES in Abu Dhabi.
ATI is committed to supporting the expansion of renewables in the MENAT region, a developing market segment with tremendous opportunity for solar adoption. GTM's Global PV Tracker Landscape 2016 report notes that the MENAT region's tracker market will grow faster than any other region in the world, with an annual growth rate averaging 56 percent from 2016 to 2021. ATI's local presence in the MENAT region, as well as relationships with local companies like STC Elektronik, puts ATI in an excellent position to service the growing demand in the region.
"We are excited to have a presence in the Middle East and look forward to spearheading growth in this emerging hotspot of solar activity," said Ron Corio, ATI founder and CEO. "We are proud to accelerate solar tracking adoption within regions that have so much to gain from clean energy."
