Sunpreme Transforms UC Berkeley Rooftop into Solar Art
Sunpreme has transformed the rooftop of the University of California, Berkeley campus into a functional work of art. The company combined solar installations with aesthetic designs, creating the largest solar power system on the UC Berkeley campus. Commissioned in the first quarter of 2016, the system uses Sunpreme's innovative bifacial modules, which absorb light from both sides, increasing energy yield.
The system, installed by Siemens, consists of double-glass modules containing 60 solar cells each, boasting an impressive efficiency of 21.5%. Sunpreme's modules, chosen for their reliability and aesthetics, do not require grounding due to their frameless construction. The system's temperature coefficient stands at -0.28%/C, and its low-light behavior is notably good. Sungevity, another solar installer, has praised Sunpreme's professional customer service and high-quality products. The rooftop system now equips the building with photovoltaic power, turning it into a sustainable and innovative space.
Sunpreme's solar power system on the University of California, Berkeley campus demonstrates the company's commitment to transforming urban environments. By combining functionality and artistry, Sunpreme has not only increased the campus's sustainability but also enhanced its aesthetic appeal. The system's reliability and efficiency, as praised by Siemens and Sungevity, ensure that it will continue to serve the UC Berkeley campus's energy needs effectively.
