| Emcor subsidiary begins work on solar installation Emcor Group, Inc. announced that its subsidiary Dynalectric Company of Oregon has begun work on a solar power array (multiple photovoltaic solar panels) for Portland Habilitation Center, a non-profit organization that trains and employs individuals with disabilities throughout Oregon and Washington state. When completed, it will be one of the largest solar electric systems in Oregon. Dynalectric will design and install the solar array and all supporting electrical systems. The installation consists of 4,830 solar panels, an 870 KW DC solar array, and a wiring system designed to maximize the efficiency of its photovoltaic capabilities. Seven 125 KVA inverters will be located at the south perimeter of the Habilitation Center's new industrial center in Northeast Portland and the 60,000-square-foot solar array will be designed without any building envelope roof penetrations, which means it maintains the integrity of the roof to prevent water leakage. write your comments about the article :: © 2008 Construction News :: home page |
