Blue Oak Energy, the PV system design and engineering firm that formed Blue Oak PV Products in 2006, however remains unaffected by this acquisition.

Through this acquisition, SunLink has added combiner boxes to its product portfolio that includes its flagship commercial Roof Mount System and Ground Mount System.

HomeRun Combiner Boxes and Disconnecting Combiner Boxes are claimed to have been installed on over 65MW of PV installations at many sites across the country including the 2.42MW FedEx rooftop installation in Woodbridge, New Jersey and the Ricoh PV-powered billboard at Times Square in New York.

SunLink, that develops commercial roof and ground mount systems with multiple tilt angles and non-penetrating options for a variety of solar panels, also offers prepanelization services for its rooftop product.

Though this acquisition, SunLink will be able to offer commercial solar integrators, both mounting systems and combiner boxes in an integrated way, thereby providing system design flexibility and reducing installation cost.

Tobin Booth, CEO of Blue Oak Energy and former CEO of Blue Oak PV Products, said: “With the sale of our product company to SunLink, Blue Oak Energy can now focus our engineering talents on assisting our customers in deploying more PV systems in the next 24 months than the US has installed in the last decade.”
