Construction begins on Ground-Mount Solar Array in Woodburn Oregon

Advanced Energy Systems of Oregon is proud to commence construction of an 83kW PV ground mount array at the BrucePac Meat Product Designers site in Woodburn, Oregon. The ground-mount array will cover an estimated 6500 square feet, and will produce an estimated 92,000 kWh/yr using made in Oregon components such as SolarWorld modules and PV Powered inverters.

Originally designed in 2010 as a 367 kW system, the project was not selected by the Oregon Department of
Energy as a Tier 2 project for receipt of tax credits. The project was then downsized to meet the criteria for a Tier 1 PV project, which then gained approval for the preliminary tax credit.

The initial phase of construction has begun, where the anchor posts are being driven into the ground. Once the posts are set the racking will be installed, and the SolarWorld modules will be installed.

Stay tuned, as photos and project updates are posted here. Thanks to BrucePac for making an investment in renewable energy!
