I thought only the government can afford to blow money like that.

I dont think the tracker was THE POINT oil pan:
The point was the fact that HEAT DECREASES EFFICIENCY and panel lifespan.
So what are easy ways to keep panels cool?
1st would be a decent sized gap between panels and roof or whatever so a breeze can get at the bottom.
IMHO 2nd would be well watered plants underneath and around as they evaporate water into the atmosphere and Evap cooling is the most efficient cooling you can get. That's why it's cooler under a tree than it is under a roof...
That all goes to hell in humid climates, so you could move to Zaire (or whatever its called this year) if you felt like taking a dump on some facts..?
