SolarPower designed and built the system with SunPower solar panels. The construction on the project commenced in October.

Alon Tamari, co-CEO of SolarPower, said: “By combining SolarPower’s design and construction expertise with SunPower panels, the most efficient solar panels commercially available, HP will maximize the amount of clean solar power generated on the roof. We are very pleased to have completed the first solar power installation for the high-technology industry in Israel.”

Howard Wenger, president of global business units at SunPower, said: “SolarPower’s leadership in Israel was clearly an advantage to SunPower as we entered the market. On four continents, the proven performance of SunPower’s technology has achieved a superior return on investment for our residential, commercial and power plant customers.”

SunPower claims to have completed more than 550 large solar power systems worldwide, including the recently completed 24MW Montalto solar power plant in Italy.
