Arctech Secures Tracker Deal for Oman’s Flagship Green Ammonia Project with ACME

Arctech has signed a strategic agreement with India’s ACME Cleantech Solutions to supply 175 MWp of solar trackers for a landmark green ammonia project in Duqm, Oman.

The deal is set against the backdrop of the Gulf region’s accelerating investment in green hydrogen infrastructure, with Duqm emerging as a focal point for integrated renewables-to-hydrogen industrial development.

At the heart of the collaboration is ACME’s 300 metric tons per day (MTPD) green ammonia facility—one of the first large-scale green hydrogen projects in the Middle East. Designed to be powered by renewable electricity, the project is positioned as a key contributor to Oman’s national energy diversification plan, which targets 35–39% renewable energy penetration by 2040, according to Oman Power and Water Procurement Company (OPWP) planning documents.

The Duqm site, while strategically located near export routes on Oman’s southeastern coast, presents complex engineering challenges. Annual solar irradiance exceeds 5,700 kWh/m², among the highest globally, but this advantage is offset by intense heat, high humidity, frequent sandstorms, and wind speeds of up to 55 meters per second. The site is classified at C5 for corrosion exposure—typically the highest category under ISO standards.

To meet these environmental demands, Arctech will deploy its Skyline II 1P single-axis tracker system, known for its structural stability and performance in high-load conditions. This model incorporates aerodynamic design principles, torsional stiffness, and automated stow modes for wind protection—key attributes in coastal desert environments. The phased delivery of trackers is set to begin in July 2025.

From a systems perspective, the use of utility-scale PV infrastructure for hydrogen production addresses one of the sector’s primary challenges: cost-effective, 24/7 green electricity. While Oman benefits from excellent solar conditions, intermittent generation necessitates a robust hardware backbone to maximize capacity factor and ensure smooth operation of downstream electrolysis systems. ACME’s decision to integrate Arctech’s tracking technology reflects an optimization strategy for energy yield per square meter—crucial for LCOH (levelized cost of hydrogen) competitiveness.

This project is also notable for its dual export and domestic potential. Green ammonia, a hydrogen carrier and industrial feedstock, is viewed as a flexible route to global decarbonization, especially for countries with limited renewable capacity. Oman’s green hydrogen export strategy, supported by agreements with entities in Europe and Asia, places Duqm in a geostrategic position—acting as both an energy exporter and a regional industrial decarbonization anchor.

For Arctech, the deal further expands its global footprint in high-growth hydrogen-linked solar markets. With deployments across Asia, the Middle East, and Latin America, the company is leveraging its experience in precision-engineered solar infrastructure to support emerging hydrogen economies. The collaboration with ACME is a case study in market alignment between solar technology providers and green hydrogen developers seeking bankable, efficient, and durable solutions.

ACME’s broader strategy includes projects in India and Africa, with green hydrogen capacities that could eventually scale to millions of tons annually. As the cost of electrolyzers declines and project financing frameworks mature, utility-scale projects like Duqm will play an increasingly central role in anchoring supply chains for hydrogen and ammonia.
