BlueChip Energy™是专门为民用住宅、商业、政府和公用事业建筑提供太阳能完整解决方案的公司。今天该公司宣布已开始Rinehart太阳能农场第二阶段建设。该项目是佛罗里达州的一个规模达10兆瓦的公用事业太阳能光伏发电项目。
Rinehart Solar Farm此项目位于佛罗里达州的玛丽湖畔，总容量约为10兆瓦MW，每年可发电1500万千瓦小时。这相当于大约1100个家庭每年所耗电力。该项目将覆盖38万平方英尺的屋顶空间和周边BlueChip Energy设施的部分面积
该太阳能农场正处于兴建阶段，已完成屋顶顶端共120千瓦的设备安装，装有520块230瓦德单晶硅板和最先进的60千瓦的Fronius逆变器。预计第一阶段将于2010年7月完成。第二阶段是包括500千瓦组件的房顶项目。随后的第三阶段包括1.4兆瓦屋顶系统和8MW地面系瓦。
BlueChip Energy公司拥有电力购买协议（PPA）。Rinehart太阳能农场可为佛罗里达提供可持续使用的清洁能量。作为清洁能源项目，该项目将刺激经济快速发展，是本地形成高薪酬，高技能的太阳能建设特色经济。
BlueChip Energy™, a provider of complete solar energy solutions for residential, commercial, government and utility applications, today announced it has started stage one of the Rinehart Solar Farm, a 10 MW utility-scale solar PV facility in Central Florida.
The Rinehart Solar Farm project, located in Lake Mary, Fla., will have a total capacity of 10 megawatts (MW) and an annual generation of approximately 15,000,000 kilowatt-hours. This is equivalent to the annual energy use of roughly 1,100 area homes. It will cover a portion of the 380,000 square foot rooftop space and surrounding acreage of BlueChip Energy’s Lake Mary facility.
The solar farm is being built in stages, starting with a roof top plant totaling 120 kilowatts (kW). It will feature 520 monocrystalline 230 Watt panels and two state-of-the-art 60 kW Fronius inverters. The first stage is expected to be completed by July, 2010. Stage two is a roof top plant consisting of 500 kW. Subsequent stages will consist of a third, 1.4 MW rooftop system and 8 MW of ground-based systems.
The company has a power purchase agreement (PPA) to supply Progress Energy Florida with renewable solar power from the Rinehart Solar Farm. As a clean energy project, it will stimulate the local economy by creating an estimated 100 high-paying, high-skilled jobs while building local expertise in solar energy. “We expect the Rinehart Solar Farm to serve as a model in the state of Florida for more large-scale, alternative-energy projects," commented Lawrence Hefler, spokesperson for the company.
