475-kW solar array now complete atop Miami-area regional library
- Advanced Green Technologies (AGT) as well as Advanced Roofing have completed the first large-scale county-owned solar project in Miami-Dade, Florida, at the North Dade Regional Library in Miami Gardens. The project was created under a DMS contract and power solution agreement, and also it marks the very first of 3 pilot larger-scale solar projects being implemented in Miami-Dade County this year.
The North Dade Regional Library rooftop solar panel installation started in August 2022 as well as was finished in April 2023. The solar array makes up Canadian Solar modules and also RSDs, DCE racking, Chint inverters and a Veris meter for monitoring, with an overall capacity of 475 kW. The solar system is expected to offset the building's energy use by 85%. The South Dade Regional Library as well as the MetroWest Detention Center are the various other 2 projects in the pipeline and also will be finished later this year after obtaining licenses.
" The partnership in between AGT as well as Miami Dade County Leadership has shown that municipal government companies can effectively release solar assets, swiftly as well as efficiently" stated Clint Sockman Executive Vice President of AGT. "This brings tremendous value to the community as well as the County while safeguarding the setting for generations to come."
