• Installation of 56,300 Hyundai 355-watt Solar Panels
• BOS Installation
• Civil Engineering, Communications, and Utility Work

Challenges and Results

Due to the presence of American Bald Eagle nests in the project area, our team coordinated closely with the New Jersey Division of Fish and Wildlife. To allow the project to proceed as scheduled while avoiding potential effects to the protected species, combiner boxes, MV feeders, and other system infrastructure were moved outside of the nesting areas so that the network could be installed and energized before the project deadline. Once the eagles left their nests, our team was able to install the remaining racking and modules and connect strings to the combiners.

By helping to redesign the original project plans, we were able to complete the installation and energize 17MW of the 20MW capacity prior to the project deadline. The remaining 3MW was installed in May and June of 2017. We provided all the necessary project services in-house. The solar array is now online, producing 20MW of clean energy that powers approximately 2,100 homes in the Pemberton area every year.
