5B reports 93 m/s wind record for Maverick solar array

5B, an Australia-based manufacturer of prefabricated solar array systems, has reported a wind resilience world record for its Maverick solar system. The Maverick structure is certified to withstand wind speeds of 93m/s under Wind Region D+ as per AS1170.2 standards. 5B stated that its aerodynamic, low-profile design reduces module pressure compared to conventional racking systems. The system requires minimal ground penetration and allows rapid deployment with improved safety. Each Maverick unit delivers 50kW to 70kW of capacity and can be installed by a small crew in under one hour. The prefabricated, accordion-style system is designed to reduce on-site assembly. 5B developed Maverick for large-scale solar projects in cyclone- and hurricane-prone regions. Earlier this year, 5B secured up to $46 million under Australia’s Solar Sunshot Program to expand Maverick production in Adelaide.
