ARRAY Technologies, a solar tracking technologies and services provider, unveiled DuraTrack Hail XP, a solar tracker designed to withstand extreme hail and wind events.
Hail XP builds on ARRAY’s DuraTrack platform and is engineered specifically for hail-prone regions. The tracker was developed with direct input from customers, insurers and industry partners.
“Hail XP is a breakthrough in tracker resilience,” said Aaron Gabelnick, chief strategy and technology officer at ARRAY Technologies. “It represents a significant leap forward in safeguarding solar assets by combining innovative engineering with the robust reliability our products are known for, and our customers expect from ARRAY.”
As insurers increasingly require proactive weather mitigation strategies, Hail XP sets a new company benchmark for tracker reliability. The tracker does not rely on batteries for operation, and is instea AC powered. Hail XP has a 77° stow-tilt capability to mitigate incoming hail impact.
It is integrated with ARRAY’s SmarTrack Hail Alert Response and patented Passive Wind Stow technologies, and features a reinforced bearing housing, larger gear rack and upgraded damper designed to work in harsh weather conditions. Hail XP is expected to be available for first shipments in early 2026.
