This 9.6 MW system is the largest school solar system in the United States. Students at all the high schools were active on their Facebook pages and Twitter accounts talking about the solar systems being installed on their campuses. The installation also serves as an important teaching aide the students can observe outside their classroom.

Using Trinasolar Panels, The Clark County School District was able to reduce energy costs and provided significant energy savings for each of the 18 elementary schools. The installation made use of available standing seam roofs for much of the installations. This brought the installation cost down and provided significant energy savings for each of the 18 elementary schools. Interactive monitoring systems inside the schools offer children the chance to learn how solar PV systems work.

Construction and testing of the Porterville project took about six months. This short construction phase was enabled by over a year of pre-construction planning and experience gained from Southern California Edison’s numerous other facilities. Additionally, Porterville City leaders were willing to draft a suitable lease for the land adjacent to the airport on which the project was built. The site was selected because it offered suitable land near distribution circuits that could support a large amount of solar power without the need for major upgrades.

The Marriott Towne Place Suites, Marriott’s 2012 “Hotel of the Year”, is located across Old Alexander Ferry Road from Joint Base Andrews. A large segment of the hotel’s guest base is military personnel on temporary duty at the base. The hotel prides itself on providing a “home away from home” and an inviting atmosphere to support the troops. The hotel began looking into a solar photovoltaic energy system in 2013. The Towne Place Suites is now the first Maryland hotel to be nearly 100 percent solar-powered.

Black Hills State University (BHSU), nestled in Spearfish, South Dakota, near the Wyoming border, is currently embarking on an ambitious mission to be powered by 100 percent renewable energy. The plan, called the President’s Climate Commitment, aims to make the school 100 percent renewable by 2030. To meet its sustainability goals, this master’s-level state university with more than 3,800 students, contracted , a leading provider of energy-efficient technologies and solutions, to install rooftop PV systems on many of its buildings.

GenPro partnered with  for a bundled package of high-quality modules, inverters, and racking. The total solar solution optimizes the PV system’s performance to deliver lower levelized cost of energy (LCOE) and quicker return on investment (ROI) for BHSU.

PV for RVs: Introducing One of the Country’s First RV Parks to Run on Solar Power.

The owner of the Glades Resort, an RV park in Moore Haven, Florida, noticed an opportunity to practice environmental stewardship and save money on his power costs by switching from traditional to renewable energy. But getting the PV system designed and ready for installation was complex, involving many moving targets and ambitious goals.

Find out how Trinasolar’s C&I Solutions team helped the Glades Resort become one of the first RV parks in the country to be fully powered by a 1 Megawatt (MW) solar power station.

Inspira Health is a charitable nonprofit healthcare organization and a regional leader in physician training. It has four medical centers, two comprehensive cancer centers, eight multi-specialty health centers, and locations throughout southern New Jersey. Inspira recently partnered with Rendina, a trusted national leader in healthcare real estate.

, located in Millville, NJ, develops, designs, and builds solar and energy storage projects for the commercial and industrial (C&I) market. Julian Rossini, the principal at Equinox, is a proven solar industry veteran with a long track record of success. Before joining Equinox, Julian partnered with Inspira to install a rooftop array using Trina Solar Tallmax modules. Atop Inspira’s Millville emergency medical center, the project garnered a nomination for 2021’s “C&I Project of the Year Award” from Solar Builder.

Building on that success, Julian, now with Equinox, once again partnered with Inspira and Trina Solar C&I Solutions to install a 331 kilowatt (kW) rooftop PV system for Inspira’s new medical clinic in Deptford, NJ.

In the heart of Texas, a newly commissioned 1.4-megawatt (MW) solar project in the City of Smithville showcases how innovative technology and strategic partnerships can overcome challenges to deliver clean, reliable energy.

The project represents a collaborative effort between Trinasolar US; UGE, the developer, owner, and operator of the project; the City of Smithville; and Spear Commercial and Industrial, a local EPC (Engineering, Procurement, and Construction) firm. Smithville, a community of people and businesses that came together with support for local growth and overall quality of life, wanted to increase local energy generation and strengthen resilience for residents and businesses.

The owners of Hawk Pointe Golf Club seek to make their course the most environmentally-friendly golf course in the country.
In addition to powering course facilities with clean solar power, Hawk Pointe has also invested in a system that reclaims and treats wastewater to supply the significant volumes of water required to irrigate the course. Solar was chosen as the clean energy source because peak energy demand on the golf course coincides with peak energy production from solar.
