Let the PV do the work.
With solar module prices at an all time low, it’s simply more cost-effective to add solar modules than it is to add costly tracking and steel support structures to meet your project’s energy targets. Whereas tracker systems may add 20% more energy per solar module, we simply increase the number of solar modules and enjoy the benefits of eliminating steel structures. The result is a power plant with less CAPEX, lower LCOE, and higher returns.
More Energy, Less Land
With no row spacing, Erthos offers the highest energy density of any solar architecture in the industry. In cases where your project is interconnect capacity constrained, you can decrease your land requirement by up to 60%. In cases where your project is land constrained, you can increase your energy density by up to 275%.

A Bounty of Benefits
Eliminates Structural Steel
Eliminates Structural Steel
We dramatically reduce your project’s carbon footprint by eliminating approximately 40 tons of steel per MW.
Hurricane Proof
Hurricane Proof
Our standard system design is rated to withstand a category 5 hurricane at no extra cost.
No Sub Surface Risk
No Sub Surface Risk
There’s is no added cost for hard or corrosive soils and no need to pad costs to account for the variability of sub-surface rock.
Autonomous Operation
Autonomous Operation
Because the cost of each ErthBot is amortized over 2 MWac, we’re able to offer an incredibly robust machine at a very low cost per Watt.
<1% Annual Soiling
<1% Annual Soiling
The ErthBot® autonomous cleaning robot reduces soiling losses to under 1%.
70% Less Cable Usage
70% Less Cable Usage
Because an Erthos plant is so space-efficient, wire lengths and gauges are significantly reduced.
70% Less Water Usage
70% Less Water Usage
High layout density, little trenching, no pile driving, and minimal civil work means far less water use during construction.
70% Less Trenching
70% Less Trenching
High-density layout and the ability for DC cabling to run under the array means far less trenching.
Noise-Free Installation
Noise-Free Installation
No pile driving and very little use of heavy equipment means very construction noise.
Low Visual Disturbance
Low Visual Disturbance
At only 35 mm high and less than half the footprint, Erthos plants create far less visual impact.
