Zimmermann Solar specializes in installation, a process that can be divided into three main phases.
Do you know them?

👉Pile driving is the first one. It takes place after the survey and soil preparation, and must be performed with the utmost care and precise planning.

👉The second phase of our installation process involves structure assembly. Whether fixed, floating, tracker or for agrivoltaics, we have the best components and the better prepared technicians for a quick and effective .

And which is the next step once we have the structures assembled? Right!

👉Module fixation! In this final stage, our team of expert workers performs this task and the commissioning of the whole plant.

As a leading company in the field of large-scale solar projects, Zimmermann Solar specializes in the installation of PV systems, but we also take care of the whole process! 💪

We provide complete support from the very beginning: throughout the planning and phase, our professional team designs a customized plan for , and the of the specific systems.

After planning phase, we entrust the production to the Zimmermann Factory in Germany, where each design is tested for corrosion resistance, mechanical aspects and material quality.

📦Then we manage all the distribution logistics, ensuring a fast, safe and low-cost shipment.

After soil preparation, we begin pile driving, and we carry out the assembly of mounting structures and . Lastly, we put the whole photovoltaic plant into operation🔌.

𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐛𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲 is a fundamental characteristic of the structure installed by Zimmermann Solar. The pontoons are made from high-quality HDPE and recycled material in the inside layer. This conjunction grants the system a long life.

Likewise, 𝐅𝐥𝐞𝐱𝐢𝐛𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲 is a word that perfectly defines our company. For both planning and installation, it is essential to pursue long-term viability. That is why we need to be adaptive.

💦With respect to our floating PV configuration, ✨additional elements✨ can be integrated in order to meet customer-specific requirements: transformer stations, pumps, pipes, plant boats for vegetation, operation , etc. Besides, maintenance can be carried out safely and quickly via robust access gangways.

Summer is here☀️, and we invite you to have a look at our most appealing configuration: the 𝐟𝐥𝐨𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 PV system. 🏄‍♀️

The ZIM Float is designed as an east-west solution for fresh water and specific snow and wind loads, that we adjust based on each project. We carry out wind tunnel tests in order to determine these loads and the resulting dynamic forces. Additionally, a wave barrier is included, either integrated or external, to reduce loads.

All cables and connectors are safely protected and there is no heat accumulation under modules thanks to the open design of the Float.

Would you like to know which additional elements can be included in installations? Come back next week for a fresh post! 👓

Did you know that it is possible to make use of land for crop production and photovoltaic energy at the same time? It's called 𝐀𝐠𝐫𝐢𝐯𝐨𝐥𝐭𝐚𝐢𝐜𝐬🌾.

Zimmermann mounting systems allow for this functionality, so a sustainable is guaranteed with us.

📝 When it comes to installation for , we develop a pile driving plan after a geological survey to benefit from soil depth.

Zimmermann Solar guarantees a high degree of throughout the process: a quick and adequately supervised , in which distances are all modifiable, as well as inclination.

✅ Our complete service for this type of solutions includes a clean installation with integrated cable trays. Maintenance is easy: it only requires common tools, instead of high-cost equipment.

📡Last week we had a first look at our Tracker system in this page, and today we would like you to know some of the benefits that come with 𝐙𝐢𝐦𝐦𝐞𝐫𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐧 𝐒𝐨𝐥𝐚𝐫 𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐤𝐞𝐫 𝐢𝐧𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬:

🔧 This type of solution is perfect for large-scale projects due to its increase in performance. Its low maintenance system and innovative module bracket with integrated nut allow for comfort and a fast installation. In addition, we supply the first maintenance-free control unit which works with an innovative string-powered solution without battery. Therefore, the 𝐙𝐈𝐌 𝐓𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐤 means less operating costs and a reduced frequency of repair, among other advantages.

Our trackers are subject to wind tunnel tests up to 145 mph (233 km/h). After the geological survey and soil preparation that we carry out for each project, Zimmermann Solar professional team performs a quick and easy commissioning.

👨‍🚒Our tracker system construction is possible in rows up to 90 modules, and what is more, we are able to produce individual specific designs. Some other highlighted strengths for our solutions include an integrated cable management —no extra components necessary— and an individually adjustable cleaning position.

We are running out of time when it comes to preserving our oceans and marine biodiversity🌍.

The celebrated last week and the next Thursday, 16th June, help us remember the importance of our planet's biggest lungs. Did you know that oceans generate the largest amount of the oxygen (50%) and houses the most of animal species?🐢

Sadly, we continue to destroy this precious treasure:

●6/8 marine turtle species are currently threatened with extinction. ●1/2 turtles ingest plastic, given that it looks quite similar to jellyfish. ●By 2050, it is estimated that there will be more plastics than fishes in the oceans😔

But plastic is not the only alarming issue. Human emissions of pollutants, oil spills and the global temperature increase resulting from fossil fuel use are severely damaging our water ecosystems.
We have a responsibility to make everything in our power to change the balance in favour of . We need a real change now, and clean energies are part of the solution. 𝐑𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐰𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐠𝐲 𝐢𝐬 𝐧𝐞𝐞𝐝𝐞𝐝 𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐧 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫.

Today, we exhibit what could be our most popular mounting system: 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐤𝐞𝐫 ✴

Zimmermann's single-axis configuration, the ZIM TRACK, is the ideal choice for large and really ambitious projects. It's a state-of-the-art tracker with a superpower: its optimal and ✨.

As with all our mounting systems, the features high-quality and a high degree of standardization, thanks to the hot-dip galvanizing process (ISO 9001/ Magnelis®).

Next Friday we will talk about the advantages of our tracker system installations!
Don't miss it out next week!🧐
