The utility-tied system has been constructed by Independent Energy Solutions using 1,680 Kyocera KD240 solar modules produced at Kyocera’s San Diego manufacturing facility.
The energy system is expected to produce 583,267kWh of power annually, and is enough energy to power almost 100 area homes each year.
Financing for the system has been provided by the Associated Students of San Diego State University.
SDSU’s array contributes to the total of over 11MW of PV energy installed at California State University campuses throughout the state.
Kyocera is a supplier of solar power generating systems, telecommunications equipment, printers, copiers, electronic components, semiconductor packages, cutting tools and industrial ceramics.
Associated Students is an independent, student-directed nonprofit corporation on the campus of San Diego State University.
