  • Kern Solar Structures is partnering with S2A Modular and FreeVolt USA to provide Solar CarPorT frameworks for their network of 35 "MegaFactories" throughout North America. The initial phase of the partnership begins with the construction of 2 personalized 240-kW solar carport systems at S2A Modular's Patterson and Hemet MegaFactories.

" Part of S2A Modular's success has been picking the right partners, as well as we are really delighted at what Kern is able to bring to the table. Their exclusive use of premium products enables them to develop several of the best and strongest solar awnings in the sector," claimed John Rowland, head of state as well as co-founder of S2A Modular. "One of one of the most important attributes of Kern's Solar CarPorT is its expansion ability that enables us to flawlessly add more awnings and solar generation ability if needed. Solar is a critical element to our MegaFactory operations, as well as we are certain in Kern's capacity to supply structures that will last for years."

The very first Solar CarPorT system being installed consists of 3 private carport structures which are designed to allow for system development as well as increased generation capacity as the manufacturing facilities expand its operations. The individual structures are coated in a two-tone polysiloxane safety coating in S2A Modular's hallmark eco-friendly as well as white. They additionally include laser-cut, back-lit, solar wrap column enhancements that include an illuminated S2A Modular logo design.

These structures are created to sustain a custom-made PVGRAF planetary system created by FreeVolt USA including more than 800 300-W PVGRAF photovoltaic panels. FreeVolt USA is the globe's only maker of graphene-based PV modules.

The MegaFactories are developed for power efficiency, as well as the Solar CarPorTs and also PVGRAF modules are important components and will supply all power needed to run the manufacturing facility. Each MegaFactory will certainly additionally utilize a big business power storage system like the Tesla PowerPack to save energy created by the FreeVolt modules.

S2A Modular has actually created self-reliant residences with tailor-made attributes, making use of modular building, net no as well as web positive power performance utilizing eco-friendly building materials. Construction of the Patterson MegaFactory Solar CarPorT System is scheduled for late 2020.
