so tracking isn't really working I guess it's a story about tracking solar
The article doesn't mention tracking, why would you say it's not working?
Slide 25 here shows that 99% of new utility installs in 2024 were single-axis trackers, because costs have fallen so far

What's different about 2025?

I don't know, it's a paywalled site.
It's still completely unclear to me why you'd say an obviously false thing like "tracking isn't working." I was hoping you'd have some new information to back up such a claim, because that would be very useful!
