When engineering, procurement and construction company Solar Energy Management<\/a> designed the largest rooftop installation in Florida, two things were especially important: that the components be industry-leading and made in America.<\/p>\n

The record-setting system was installed on the roof of Great Bay Distributors<\/a>. As the largest commercial rooftop solar installation in Florida to date, it will generate more than 2,000 MWh each year with an estimated payoff within six years. The plant will account for 90 percent of Great Bay\u2019s energy usage and offset an equivalent amount of carbon dioxide emissions as planting more than one million trees.<\/p>\n

Leading global PV integrator and SMA Authorized Distributor PROINSO<\/a> supplied the 1.5 MW systems 51 Sunny Tripower 24000TL-US<\/a> three-phase string inverters, made at SMA\u2019s Denver, CO production facility, \u00a0and other system components to the EPC, Solar Energy Management, based in Tampa, Florida. The construction of the 1.5 MW rooftop PV system is another shining example of how commercial solar is not only affordable but a great long term investment with positive financial returns for businesses.<\/p>\n
