Nextracker and Orrcon Steel, an Australian manufacturer of tube and pipe, and distributor of steel products and wholly owned business of BlueScope Steel, announced an agreement to manufacture and deliver Australian made critical components for Nextracker’s smart solar tracker used on distributed generation and utility-scale solar farms. The first project scheduled to receive delivery of Australian made steel components from the facility is Acciona Energia’s 480MWp Aldoga Solar Farm to be built near Gladstone. Critical steel components will be produced from BlueScope’s steel coil at Orrcon Steel’s Salisbury Tube mill in Brisbane and finished at its Northgate site by Baojia, Nextracker’s global manufacturing partner for delivery to engineering procurement contractors. The new manufacturing facility was officially opened by Queensland Minister for Energy and Clean Economy Jobs.
