1P vs 2P — which to choose

1P (one module in portrait) is the volume default: cheapest, easiest install, best for flat terrain. 2P (two modules stacked in portrait) has higher wind resistance and better terrain following — pick it for undulating sites, high-wind zones, or where longer torque tubes reduce foundation count.

Frequently asked questions

QHow does terrain slope affect tracker choice?

1P handles up to 15% slope N-S with backup. 2P and articulated 1P can handle up to 20% with reduced GCR. Above 20%, consider fixed-tilt terraces.
