Arctech, a global leader in solar tracking, racking, and BIPV solutions, said it has signed a strategic contract with India-based ACME Cleantech Solutions to supply 175 MWp of solar trackers for the 300 MTPD Green Ammonia Project in Duqm, Oman.

 

A pure play fully integrated renewable energy company, ACME boasts a diversified portfolio across solar, wind, hybrid as well as firm and dispatchable renewable energy (FDRE) projects.

 

As per the deal, Arctech will deploy its signature 1P Single Axis Solar Tracking System Skyline II, engineered for harsh environments, to support the solar PV component powering one of the first large-scale green hydrogen production facilities in the Middle East region. 

 

These trackers will be delivered in phases starting from July, said Arctech in a statement.

 

The project is located near the southeastern coast of Oman, a region characterised by coastal desert conditions including sandy soils, high wind speeds (up to 55 m/s), C5-level corrosion exposure, extreme temperatures and high levels of solar radiation, with an annual average of around 5,764 KWh/m2. 

 

The area's favourable climate, with high solar insolation, has made it a prime location for utility-scale solar projects.

 

In recent years, Oman Power and Water Procurement Company (OPWP) has introduced renewable energy initiatives such as a new Concentrated Solar Power (CSP) project in Duqm. 

 

OPWP is actively working toward a diverse energy mix, aligning with the national target of sourcing 35–39% of electricity from renewables by 2040. 

 

This new partnership reinforces Oman's long-term vision and positions the Duqm region as a central hub in the global energy transition.

 

Vipin Aggarwal, VP of Procurement in Green Hydrogen and International Business, expressed delight at partnership with Arctech for its 300 MTPD Green Hydrogen project in Oman. 

 

"This collaboration marks an important milestone in our green hydrogen journey, and we are confident that Arctech's advanced tracking solutions and project execution capabilities will support us in achieving optimal energy efficiency and reliability under challenging coastal and high-wind site conditions," he added.-TradeArabia News Service
