Market Potential A majority of Madagascar’s renewable energy potential remains unharnessed. The country has high hydro, solar, and wind potential and considerable biomass resources. In its New Energy Policy (NEP), the government identified an ambition to produce 85% of the country’s power from renewable sources by 2030 Madagascar has a large solar energy potential. Almost all regions of Madagascar receive over 2,800 hours of sunshine per year, with the daily solar radiation ranging from 1,500 to 2,100 kWh/m2. PV systems are currently utilized for powering public buildings such as health clinics, as well as off-grid community electrification solutions. A few foreign companies are assisting with various electrification projects on a small-scale (i.e. solar-powered pumps for clean water) Solar farms in Madagascar, solar racking provided by Antaisolar The total capacity of this ground project is 6MW, which is comprised of several projects ranging from 1to 2MW and installed in Diego, Tamatave, Majunga and other places. Due to the frequent cyclone season, the maximum wind speed is very high and up to 60m/s. Madagascar has a tropical rainforest climate, with lots of rain, flat but muddy land. Antai Solar adopted concrete foundation with aluminum mounting system with measurement and calculation by the engineer for ensuring sufficient strength in cyclone weather. Antai Solar provide the solar mounting solutions through OCEAN TRADE, and the project was successfully completed under the efforts of parties. Among one of the projects, Mr Andry Nirina Rajoelina, president of Malagasy, had visited and inaugurated the 2MW solar hybrid project in Tamatave. It’s estimated that the project will allows the cut of 1400t of CO2 per year!

The desert photovoltaic power plant in Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, China, which used Antaisolar manu-adjustable solar fixed solar racking and had an installed capacity of 100MW, has been successfully connected to the local grid. It effectively encourages the organized production of local renewable energy, the ecological climate, plateau agriculture, and animal husbandry. The region has a relatively dry environment, extreme land desertification, and dust storms are normal. The landscape of the region, which is located on a hill, is high and undulating. Antaisolar resolved the immense difficulties presented by the challenging construction environments, delivering technology and product resources for this PV project with considerable expertise in working with difficult solar racking projects. By changing the tilt angle, the power station will receive more direct sunlight, improving power generation efficiency significantly. The power station’s annual power consumption is expected to be 195 million kwh, saving 64,200 tons of conventional coal and minimizing 204,000 tons of carbon dioxide and other gases. There is no question that the growth of the photovoltaic industry in the desert and Gobi not only has significant economic benefits, but it also serves an ecological role of sand prevention and control. It is expected to be the third recent method of sand protection and management, following afforestation and desertification regulation and sediment fixation by sand barriers. Based on the vision of "Backbone for Solar World", Antaisolar will focus on its brand positioning- the Expert in Hard & Core Technology for Solar Mounting & Tracking System, and strive to provide high-end customized solar racking solutions for global clients to safeguard the blue sky and white clouds.

Recently, Antaisolar announced that the 1st phase of one 10MW roof solar project is already completed at Cross-border Industrial Park in Jiangsu province, China, with Steel mounting system comprehensively adopted. With capacity of 2MW and railless ballast solar mounting solution, it was turned out to be a stable and easy solar installation on open flat roof space. The railless solar racking designed allowed the whole installation much quicker, without the long and cumbersome rails. According to local site wind rating requirement, it was secured by a certain weight of concrete block to achieve well performance. What’s more, the main material of this solar racking adopted was MAC steel with unique advantages.  It’s a kind of eco-friendly steel without hot-dip galvanized while maintaining highly corrosion resistance, also the deformation and manufacturing accuracy of the material in processing are significantly improved. Meanwhile, the pretreatment on the surface ensures the attractive appearance of the material. Antaisolar Steel solar mounting system is developed to diversify our product portfolio applicable for large-scale ground solar farm and concrete flat roof solar farm. Project site at strong corrosive soil, coastal salt-affected areas, agriculture greenhouse and composting site are all suitable for utilizing this new material.
