en.Wedoany.com Reported - German company Next2Sun has launched a new vertical mounting system, Fields2Sun Max, designed specifically for large utility-scale photovoltaic power plants. This solution extends the technology developed by the company for agrivoltaics and distributed generation applications—vertical installation of east-west oriented PV modules—to large-scale projects.

Unlike traditional tilted configurations or tracking systems, vertical systems produce a significantly different generation curve. The east-west orientation increases power output during morning and evening hours while reducing it during midday, aligning the generation curve more closely with periods when electricity commands higher prices on the wholesale market. The company believes this solution is well-suited for markets such as Spain.

Next2Sun states that this solution is designed to address the new market environment: maximizing energy output is no longer the sole objective, and the ability to generate electricity during periods of higher economic value is becoming increasingly important.

The Fields2Sun Max system is designed for large-scale projects and does not require PV modules optimized for vertical configurations. It is compatible with standard commercially available modules, but requires high-power modules exceeding 700 Wp.

The company notes that vertical PV offers greater resistance to wind, hail, and snow.

Next2Sun will unveil more project information and technical data at booth A4.130 during the Intersolar trade fair in Munich, Germany, from June 23 to 25.

Next2Sun recently signed a strategic cooperation agreement with Norwegian technology company Over Easy Solar to jointly promote the distribution and commercialization of vertical PV solutions. Over Easy Solar has developed lightweight vertical PV modules suitable for flat roofs and green roofs, which are lightweight and easy to install, and can be used in combination with Next2Sun's vertical systems.
