Who we are

We set out to make solar a cost-competitive source of clean energy from all angles. With our proprietary products, we help solar developers increase location site options, eliminate major costs of construction, and maximize power generation.

At Nevados®, we are pioneering sustainable solar solutions to preserve the earth for today and for tomorrow.

Our solar solutions were developed to fill a need in the industry for solar trackers to better adapt to non-flat terrain. We envisioned a tracker solution that would accommodate all terrain types, and eliminate the need for earthwork. After years of development and rigorous testing, we designed a structure that has proven to be reliable, robust, and easy to install. To accurately optimize all terrain conditions, we have developed project design and operation software that will analyze site specific topography. Our solution saves time & cost on permitting and construction, while maintaining the natural land for future use.
