SunEdison在圣地亚哥的光伏屋顶安装将会扩大国际知名度,圣地亚哥市长和AT&T和SunEdison的执行总监正着手去启动合作机制。到2011年第二季度,双方在加利福尼亚开发5个其他的太阳能安装,这相当于2GW的光伏总产量,并能输送给6个网点。
其他的加利福尼亚太阳能开发将会在Dunnigan, Commerce, Mojave, Santa Ana 和 West Sacramento建立。安装在圣地亚哥的屋顶安装光伏系统达到296KW。
SunEdison will expand AT&T's national solar initiative by activating a new roof top solar power installation in San Diego. San Diego Mayor Jerry Sanders as well as executives from AT&T and SunEdison were on hand to officially flip the switch on the solar power system. In addition to this installation in San Diego, AT&T has contracts with SunEdison to deploy five other solar power installations in California by the second quarter of 2011, equating to approximately 2 megawatts of total solar capacity for all six sites.
The additional California solar deployments will be located in Dunnigan, Commerce, Mojave, Santa Ana and West Sacramento. The solar power installation in San Diego is a 296 kW rooftop mounted photovoltaic system.
"Partnerships such as this one between AT&T and SunEdison show why San Diego continues to be the national leader in solar energy," said San Diego Mayor Jerry Sanders. "Our residents and businesses have embraced clean energy, which not only benefits our environment, but also our region's economy."
The program is made possible through a strategic power purchase agreement (PPA) between SunEdison and AT&T under which SunEdison will construct, monitor and maintain an additional five solar power installations in California. In return, AT&T will buy the energy produced from the solar systems to offset their grid demand. Once activated, the six systems will total an estimated 2 megawatts of solar capacity and will generate over 3.2 million kWh of energy within the first year of operation.
