A solar tracker for power generation involves aligning a photovoltaic panel at an optimal angle toward the sun to capture maximum sunlight, thereby enhancing the electricity production capacity of a solar plant. These trackers are utilized to generate clean energy and reduce carbon emissions during the power production process, ultimately improving the efficiency of solar panels and maximizing their output.
The main products in the field of solar trackers for power generation are single-axis and dual-axis trackers. Single-axis trackers employ technology that adjusts the position of a solar panel along a single axis, allowing it to follow the changing position of the sun throughout the passing days and years. The technologies utilized include photovoltaic (PV) and concentrated solar power (CSP). Applications for solar trackers span across residential, commercial, industrial, and utility sectors.

This solar tracker for power generation market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future state of the industry.
The solar tracker for power generation market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $7.29 billion in 2024 to $7.94 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.0%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to increased solar efficiency, falling solar costs, renewable energy incentives, energy independence, environmental awareness.
The solar tracker for power generation market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $11.47 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.6%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to advanced tracking technologies, global solar installations, energy storage integration, efficiency improvements, emerging solar markets. Major trends in the forecast period include single-axis vs dual-axis tracking, smart and autonomous tracking, floating solar trackers, real-time monitoring and data analytics, climate-adaptive tracking.
The increasing demand for renewable energy sources is anticipated to drive the growth of solar trackers in the power generation market. Renewable energy is derived from naturally replenishing sources, such as sunlight, rainfall, geothermal heat, and ocean waves. Solar trackers play a crucial role in harnessing these renewable energy sources for power generation. For instance, in 2023, a report from the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA), a U.S.-based agency, indicated that utility-scale electricity generation from hydropower in the U.S. reached 240 billion kWh, representing 5.7% of the total energy share. Consequently, the rising demand for renewable energy sources is expected to fuel the growth of the solar tracker market.
The growing demand for off-grid solar systems is expected to contribute to the expansion of the solar tracker market for power generation in the coming years. Off-grid solar systems operate independently of the main power grid, generating power through solar panels installed on rooftops. These self-sustaining systems store energy in batteries during sunlight hours for use during the night. Solar trackers enhance energy production, improve energy efficiency, reduce maintenance costs, and increase energy-generating capacity in off-grid solar systems. As reported by the United States Department of Energy in August 2023, a record-breaking 9.5 million off-grid solar products were sold in 2022, amounting to 94 megawatts (MW). Therefore, the growing demand for off-grid solar systems is a driving force for the solar tracker market in power generation.
Leading companies in the global solar tracker market for power generation are concentrating on developing advanced technologies, such as low-carbon innovations, to improve energy efficiency, reduce environmental impact, and promote sustainable energy practices. These low-carbon technologies significantly lower greenhouse gas emissions by enhancing energy efficiency or utilizing renewable energy sources. For example, in April 2024, Nextracker, an India-based manufacturer of advanced solar tracking systems, introduced the NX Horizon low-carbon solar tracker. This tracker employs Electric Arc Furnace (EAF) technology to process recycled steel, resulting in substantially reduced greenhouse gas emissions compared to traditional methods that depend on iron ore and coal. This method not only lessens environmental impact but also supports the U.S. steel industry by utilizing domestic scrap steel supplies.
In January 2022, Array Technologies Inc., a US-based solar tracking solutions manufacturer, acquired Soluciones Tecnicas Integrales Norland, S.L., a Spain-based solar tracker manufacturing company, for an undisclosed amount. The acquisition strengthened Array's position as a global leader in solar trackers, with a strong presence in North America, Latin America, and Europe. This strategic move positions Array as an expert in the rapidly growing Brazilian solar sector, establishing it as the world's largest solar tracker company with production capacity and technical expertise on three continents.
