Solargik Leads with AI solar trackers: 85MW of Stunning Power in Italy
In a significant advancement for Italy’s solar sector, Solargik has announced contracts for 85MW of new utility-scale solar projects, all to be equipped with its innovative AI-driven SOMA Pro tracking system. This technology is specifically engineered to enable solar development on constrained and steep terrains, including sites with slopes up to 40%, that were previously considered unsuitable for conventional installations. The announcement, made on July 11, 2025, marks a major step in maximizing land use for renewable energy generation.
Diverse Portfolio Showcases Technology’s Versatility in Italy
The 85MW capacity is distributed across several key projects, demonstrating the system’s flexibility. A major component is a 45MW portfolio developed with Revalue, which will span ten different sites and is slated for fast-track delivery in the second half of 2025. Further agreements with Free Ingegneria will see Solargik’s short-structure trackers deployed on particularly challenging inclines. Highlighting the technology’s application in dual-use land models, the portfolio also includes a 20MW agrivoltaics project. This aligns perfectly with Italy’s recent push for integrated land use, such as its €323M agrivoltaics tender designed to merge solar power with agriculture.
Driving Efficiency in the Growing Italian Solar Market
Solargik’s deployment contributes to a dynamic and expanding Italian solar market. The nation’s commitment to renewables is evident in recent auctions that have allocated hundreds of megawatts to solar. The focus on advanced technology to maximize output resonates with other efficiency-driven initiatives, such as ContourGlobal’s project to repower 35 existing solar PV plants to boost their capacity without using additional land. As investment continues to flow, with companies like Clearvise AG also expanding their footprint, the landscape for advanced solar PV is becoming increasingly sophisticated.
