The NX Horizon Hail Pro has emerged as the industry benchmark for hail risk mitigation through a combination of advanced hardware, software, and service innovations:
Rapid stowing capabilities
The mechanically balanced design enables stowing speeds up to 4× faster than conventional trackers, critical for responding to sudden hailstorms. Each tracker row includes an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) to maintain functionality during grid outages.
Enhanced protection engineering
The Hail Pro 75 option increases maximum stow angles from 60° to 75°, boosting panel survival rates to >90% against 3” hailstones in lab tests. This builds on the system’s inherent 360° wind engineering for multi-directional storm protection.
Intelligent software suite
Nextracker’s NX Navigator Premium provides one-click site-level stowing and automated responses to real-time weather data. The system supports cellular-enabled controllers for early-stage hail protection during construction.
Proven deployment scale
The underlying NX Horizon platform has been deployed on 17 GW of projects in hail-prone regions and over 75 GW globally, with Hail Pro extending these capabilities through specialized configurations for extreme weather events.
Comprehensive risk management
The solution combines real-time monitoring, predictive analytics, and optional construction-phase stowing services to address hailstorm risks across the project lifecycle. This holistic approach outperforms traditional trackers in both response speed and damage prevention.
