NEXTracker - Self-Powered Controller (SPC)
Patented and proven across gigawatts worldwide, the latest generation of Nextpower’s Self-Powered Controller (SPC) delivers precise operation and rapid response. Powered by either a dedicated mini-PV panel or the tracker itself, it remains resilient during grid outages – providing accurate location, time, and tracker angle data in any environment.
Always On
When severe weather takes down power lines, grid-dependent trackers can be left stranded. Each Nextpower SPC is self-powered and equipped with an integrated battery, ensuring at least 72 hours of uninterrupted operation.
Secure Communications
SPCs connect to Network Control Units (NCUs) via a robust Zigbee mesh network. The Datahub is then linked to cloud applications – all ensuring reliable, secure wireless communication.
Proven Performance
As the global pioneer of independent-row trackers, Nextpower has an unmatched track record in distributed-system architectures, with SPCs proven to deliver 24/7 control in extreme heat, cold, and severe weather conditions.
