1521 California Cir
1521 California Circle, Milpitas, CA 95035 is an approximately 24,892 sq ft multi-tenant office building constructed in 2000, situated in the North Milpitas submarket of Silicon Valley. The property has hosted technology and IT services tenants, consistent with the area's high-tech commercial corridor, with typical weekday daytime occupancy patterns and standard office HVAC loads. Its relatively modest single-story footprint and surface parking lot make it a strong candidate for a solar carport installation to offset daytime electricity demand.

SolarPorts designed, engineered and built a 238 kW commercial solar project using rooftop PV at 1521 California Cir in 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 529 solar panels (Canadian 450 - Bifacial) mounted on the building rooftop, paired with 23 GoodWe 10 KW inverters.
In numbers, the project delivers a 238 kW DC nameplate capacity, roughly 380,880 AC kWh of clean energy per year, and an estimated $171,396 in year-one utility-bill offsets.
