We love the sunny sky and the white clouds reflecting off the array in this photo. This system was installed on a standing seam metal roof using S-5N clamps. We anticipate that this system will produce about 85% of their annual usage.
We installed this array on a small outbuilding available on the property. This system will generate half of their annual needed energy, but if they use the state incentive to help pay the remainder of the year, they’ll see a 100% reduction in utility costs.
Rather than racking a system on the flat roof’s available, we were able to install 24 SunPower 335watt AC Modules on the east facing roof. This system will generate about 8,000kWh on an annual basis and helps reduce the amount of energy they need to purchase from their local utility.
We filled the south roof of this home with 24 SunPower 335watt AC Modules and will generate over 8,500 kWh on an annual basis. For this client, this about 1/2 of their total consumption! They are excited to pay less money to the utility company and produce as much clean energy as possible.
This client’s energy usage was lower than most of the same size and appliances and was able to get away with an 8.7kW array to make 100% of their annual usage. We love that the design was kept square and still allowed space for the vent at the top of the array.
This client was so excited to install solar on their home in Port Angeles. They wanted to maximize their return and went with the largest system available for the Washington State Incentive. They have 35 SunPower 335watt AC Modules that will make over 10,000 kWh on an annual basis.
This client was excited to know that we could install on the standing seam roof and eliminate having to penetrate the roof to attach the rail. We were able to use S-5 clamps that clamp onto seam, rather than to the truss of the house. Not all standing seam roofs are the same, we must use the profile of the seam to determine which clamp is best for the project.
Finnriver Cidery and Orchard installed a large 65kW solar array, making it the largest solar array in Jefferson County. We installed on what was formally known as the “Parlor’, their tasting room, commercial kitchen, and new warehouse storage building. Finnriver not only received a 25% USDA Grant but also used a “Barnraiser” to help local clients help fund their project as well.
This home right on the bluff in Port Angeles was outfitted with 32 SunPower 335 Modules and paired with 2 Inverters. This client was quite excited about the addition of the secure power supply outlet. This provides limited power during a daytime outage, enough to charge a phone, laptop or other small appliance.
We knew that we needed to make the power, the challenge was fitting the 35 modules on the roof like a puzzle piece. We had to ensure the vents on the roof still had space to keep proper ventilation for the home.
