Kyocera supplies solar modules for PPL park

Kyocera Solar dedicated the PPL Renewable Energy Park in which Kyocera supplied over 5,000 solar modules for completion. The 3,800 kilowatt Energy Park located in Camden County, New Jersey is composed of three power generating plants and was built by PPL Energy Services. Two of the three plants feature solar energy systems comprised of Kyocera Solar modules. The Energy Park features multiple technologies, including solar and landfill gas-to-energy power generation. Two of the newly constructed power generating plants within the Energy Park will generate energy for Aluminum Shapes, a Pennsauken New Jersey aluminum fabricator.

A 2,800 kW landill gas-to-energy power generator located at the Pennsauken Sanitary Landfill and a 500 kW solar energy system located on site at Aluminum Shapes provide power to the Pennsauken fabricator.

The 500 kW solar energy system is made up of 2,674 Kyocera KC187 modules with an estimated annual production of 600,000 kilowatt hours. The third power generating plant in the Energy Park, a 500 kW solar energy system also located at the Pennsauken Sanitary Landfill, will provide power to run the 2,800 kW landfill gas-to-energy power generator at the landfill, which in turn provides energy back to the Aluminum Shapes facility.
