Hail stow system and method

Abstract

Systems and methods for triggering a stowing of one or more solar trackers comprise receiving weather data, the weather data including one or more hail parameters, determining the one or more hail parameters exceed a first corresponding one or more hail parameter thresholds, and triggering a stowing of one or more solar trackers. The one or more hail parameters include one or more of a probability of hail, a predicted size of hail, or a predicted location of hail. The systems and methods include one or more of determining the probability of hail exceeds the first hail probability threshold, determining the predicted size of hail exceeds the first hail size threshold, or determining the predicted location of hail exceeds the first threshold distance for trigging the stowing of the one or more solar trackers.
