ARRAY Technologies Launches Atlas™, Expanding Product Portfolio with Suite of Foundation-to-Tracker Solutions to Deliver Optimized System Performance from the Ground Up
Rhea-AI Summary
ARRAY Technologies (NASDAQ: ARRY) launched ARRAY Atlas™, a suite of engineered foundation-to-tracker solutions designed exclusively for ARRAY trackers and APA foundations to improve interoperability from the ground up. Atlas targets the utility-scale solar tracker foundation market, which ARRAY estimates exceeds $1 billion annually.
The Atlas suite includes two configurations sharing a common bearing housing platform. Atlas I, for standard soil conditions, connects driven foundations via an adjustable rolled steel C-channel, aiming to increase design flexibility, enhance procurement resiliency, and lower deformation risk. Atlas II, for challenging soils, connects engineered foundations such as helical piles or ground screws with a dual-leg interface, featuring fewer connection points and a 70% reduction in component count compared to APA A-Frame®, plus improved vertical and East/West adjustability for varied topography.
Positive
- Targets >$1B tracker foundation market with engineered Atlas suite
- 70% reduction in component count for Atlas II versus APA A-Frame®
- Procurement resiliency by reducing or eliminating commodity steel beams in Atlas I
- Vertical and East/West adjustability supports varied topography on challenging sites
Negative
- None.

ARRAY Atlas™ Suite enables more predictable installation, streamlined procurement, and greater design flexibility across projects in standard and challenging soil condition
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M., July 29, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ARRAY Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: ARRY) (“ARRAY” or the “Company”), a New Mexico-based leading global provider of tracking technology and fixed-tilt products, foundation solutions, software systems and services, today announced an expansion of its product portfolio with launch of ARRAY Atlas™, a new suite of foundation-to-tracker solutions designed exclusively for ARRAY trackers and APA foundations to enhance their technical interoperability.
Across standard and challenging sites alike, the interface between foundation and tracker has historically been fragmented, hardware-heavy, and never engineered as an integrated part of the tracker system. This includes traditional steel W-beams, the current standard for most utility-scale solar piles and foundation-to-tracker interfaces, which can create unnecessary cost and execution challenges through volatile commodity pricing, limited sourcing flexibility, and installation complexity.
Designed from the ground up, the Atlas suite reimagines the connection between APA foundation and ARRAY tracker, giving customers greater installation flexibility, procurement resilience, wire management readiness, and project certainty across virtually any soil condition.
As an engineered alternative to existing foundation approaches, Atlas provides a cost competitive and optimized solution to service the tracker foundation market, which exceeds
"For decades, developers have relied on commodity steel piles that were never engineered as part of the tracker system," said Josh Von Deylen, Chief Executive Officer of APA Solar, an ARRAY company. "Atlas changes that by bringing the foundation and tracker interface together in a purpose-built solution that helps customers install faster, source more efficiently, and execute projects with greater confidence."

Atlas is available in two configurations built around a common engineered bearing housing platform to enable customers to pair the right foundation solution for their site while maintaining a consistent tracker interface above grade:
Atlas I is designed for standard soil conditions, connecting driven foundations (a shortened W-beam or sigma pile) to the tracker through an adjustable rolled steel C-channel and bearing interface, which offers customers:
- Greater design and field flexibility to correct minor driving variation in height through vertical C-channel adjustment
- Improved procurement resiliency by reducing or eliminating steel beam in favor of roll-formed steel components
- Reduced deformation risk by shortening the driven foundation and separating it from the tracker interface
Atlas II is designed for challenging soil conditions, connecting engineered foundations (helical piles or ground screws) with a dual-leg interface and bearing interface, which offers customers:
- Better installation efficiency through an integrated design with fewer connection points and a
70% reduction in component count compared to APA A-Frame® - Enhanced adaptability for design and on-site conditions, including improved vertical and East/West adjustability, supporting sites with varied topography
As utility-scale solar projects continue to scale in size while labor availability, procurement complexity, and schedule pressures increase, developers are looking for integrated solutions that simplify construction and reduce execution risk.
The launch of Atlas represents another milestone following ARRAY's acquisition of APA Solar, a premier solar racking and foundations solutions provider, in 2025. By combining ARRAY's leadership in solar tracking with APA's expertise in foundation engineering, the companies are accelerating the development of integrated solutions that simplify project execution from the ground up.
