SolarPorts designed, engineered and built a 150 kW commercial solar project built on SolarPort carport structures at 1326 Allston Way in Berkeley, CA. The site now generates a substantial share of its own electricity on-site, cutting peak-rate exposure and locking in long-term energy costs.

The installed system includes 240 solar panels (Runergy 625 Bi-Facial) mounted on 4 SolarPort carport structures above the parking lot, paired with 2 CPS 60 KW - 480 inverters.

In numbers, the project delivers a 150 kW DC nameplate capacity, roughly 275,700 AC kWh of clean energy per year, and an estimated $124,065 in year-one utility-bill offsets.
