Arctech secures 425 megawatt solar tracking projects across Central Asia

Solar equipment manufacturer Arctech secured 425 megawatts of utility scale projects in Central Asia on 11 August 2026 including 325 megawatts in Kyrgyzstan and 100 megawatts in Kazakhstan

KUNSHAN, China, Aug. 11, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Solar tracking and mounting specialist Arctech has secured 425 megawatts of new utility-scale projects in Central Asia, including a 325 megawatt SkyLine II project in Kyrgyzstan and a 100 megawatt SkyLine II project in Kazakhstan.

These new contracts bolster Arctech's standing in the region and capitalize on its success in one of the world's fastest-growing renewable energy markets. The Central Asian landscape presents significant engineering challenges, from frost-heave soils and gravel terrain to complex geological conditions, which require specialized solar project design and execution.

For the 325 megawatt project in Kyrgyzstan, Arctech devised a customized foundation solution to address the region's frost-heave soils, gravel areas, and challenging terrain. The SkyLine II's terrain adaptability aided in accommodating the complex landscape. Comprehensive pre-assembly and optimized construction planning facilitated efficient on-site installation and enhanced productivity.

In Kazakhstan, the 100 megawatt project faces similar environmental conditions, with frost-heave soils and varied geological conditions. Arctech utilized site-specific engineering optimization and foundation verification to ensure the tracking system and foundations were well-suited to the local ground conditions. Tailored delivery planning supported the project's efficient execution.

Arctech's recent accomplishments reinforce its capacity to combine terrain-adaptive tracking technology with site-specific engineering solutions, enabling dependable solar deployment across various and challenging environments. The company has delivered over 3.5 gigawatts of solar tracking and mounting systems in Central Asia, with more than 700 megawatts in Kyrgyzstan and over 900 megawatts in Kazakhstan to date.

Arctech's success in Central Asia is underpinned by its Eurasia team, deep localized engineering expertise, and longstanding partnerships. As the region accelerates its renewable energy transition, the demand for reliable and adaptable utility-scale solar solutions is expected to grow. Arctech remains committed to expanding its regional expertise and working closely with customers and partners to support the region's long-term clean energy objectives.
