We have designed a system that is rated to produce 9720 watts of power using 54 Sunwize 180 watt Modules We can mount these systems on a tilted roof with a 25 - 45 degree pitch at the same cost per watt outlined in the Standard Residential system. We can also install them on a flat roof or a ground mount. Our ground mount design may require sufficient space for 3 concrete pads, each 8 feet x 32 feet long if it is not possible to dig to the required depth. A new technique has been developed to install the mounting apparatus with large screw-like posts which are hydraulically installed. The installation time is greatly reduced with no sacrifice in quality of the installation.
This 9720 watt array faces 180 degrees in Glen Gardner New Jersey.
If your property does not have a slope and has 93 feet of length, we can make it all in one piece. As mentioned above, we can pour a pad of concrete beneath the array to provide the foundation for the mounting apparatus. This reduces the need for blasting in order to secure the footings.
This is a system recently completed in Lafayette, NJ. It consists of 3 arrays of 18 Sharp 170 watt panels for a total of 9180 watts. This is how it was constructed:
The entire project took place in the Summer of 2006. There were 3 days of 100+ degree weather, perfect for solar, but not that great for the installers.
