Scalable Trackers for Floating Solar

Our Mission

To unlock floating solar’s potential to meet the world’s growing electricity demand by building a scalable solar tracker that maximizes power generation

More Energy

Daily solar tracking that delivers up to 20% more energy generation over the entire lifetime of a floating solar project when compared to conventional, fixed-tilt systems

For Every Project

Built for utility-scale and distributed generation projects providing power for heavy industry, utilities, data centers & communities where land is scarce and water is a critical resource

Airon™ Tracker Technology

Horizontal Single-Axis Tracking for Floating Solar

Robust, U.S.-sourced components with an elegant design created specifically for the floating environment 

Simple Design

We distilled decades of tracker engineering into a design purpose-built for the water – fewer parts, fewer points of failure, and proven components the solar industry already knows

Installed with Ease

Airon™ uses equipment and installation process that are already familiar to solar EPCs and developers, with fewer connections and no specialized tools

Made in the U.S.

Domestic supply chain for every component and regional U.S. manufacturing simplify project logistics and streamline FEOC and domestic content compliance

Low-Maintenance Stability

Passive stabilizers maintain balance without complex mechanisms or moving parts. A low-profile design and automatic stowing balance energy production with reliable operation in the harshest weather
