The technology that Abengoa Solar installs with its tracking PV systems, Copero PV, is proprietary.
Abengoa Solar installs PV systems that use 1-axles and 2-axles tracking. Tracking the sun results in significantly higher performance when compared to fixed PV systems. 1-axles tracking improves yield by about 20% and 2-axles tracking improves yield by about 35%.
Abengoa Solar invests heavily in the R&D of new photovoltaic materials and designs. Abengoa Solar's research groups collaborate with institutions and research centers to improve concentration, thin film and conventional silicon technology. The PV laboratory assesses the performance of different PV technologies.
