SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 16, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Blue Sky Utility, a California based renewable energy developer, and Sunpreme Inc., a US-based solar photovoltaic company and Pascco Companies, a national real estate investment firm, are pleased to announce the completion of a 1.62Megawatt commercial rooftop solar system located on Hanford Mall in Hanford, CA. The system is the largest commercial rooftop Solar PV installation in Hanford and the largest solar system to be installed, to date, on a shopping mall in the state. The system is estimated to generate almost 3,000,000 kWh of clean, emission free electricity annually – enough energy to serve over 450 homes, while providing a centerpiece to the holistic approach to environmental stewardship.

"There was only one panel design capable of meeting the energy production requirements within the constraints of available rooftop space, timeframe and cost efficiencies required for Blue Sky Utility. We chose Sunpreme Bifacial Panels once again for their higher lifetime energy production, proven product reliability and an outstanding warranty for a long-term investment. Over 1.62MW of Sunpreme Maxima GxB310/370 with bifacial advantage – were installed to meet the project requirements. This is our 3rd business project in collaboration with Sunpreme, with a unique business model, and they have demonstrated once again that they are a reliable and trusted partner, with innovative and truly professional customer support," said Ran Bujanover, Founder and President at Blue Sky Utility.

"We could not have envisioned such a long-term partnership with anyone other than Blue Sky Utility and Sunpreme, given their extensive expertise in applying renewable solutions to retail real estate ettings," noted Joanne.
