GameChange Solar, a Connecticut-based provider of solar tracking solutions for ground-mounted PV installations, is partnering with China-based PV manufacturer Jiangsu Zhenjiang New Energy Equipment (JZNEE) to build a 3 GW tracker factory in Dammam, Saudi Arabia.
The facility will have an initial capacity of up to 3 GW, with the potential for expansion up to 5 GW. It is scheduled to be commissioned in June 2024. The companies aim to meet the growing demand for PV trackers in the region.
