US National integrator, ThinkSolar, in cooperation with solar contractor Pacific Solar Energy, has completed one of California’s largest commercial roof-mounted photovoltaic (PV) systems. The 650 kW turnkey solar array for Lithographix is the first commercial array in the City of Hawthorne. "I’m proud to announce the completion of this beautiful solar plant", says ThinkSolar CEO Elmar Niewerth. "The expert installation by Pacific Solar Energy and professional teamwork among manufacturers allowed us to deliver a state of the art PV array in time and on budget." The rooftop installation at Lithographix’s 250,000 square foot facility near Los Angeles International Airport, features Schott ASE300 solar panels, selected for their durability and double glass encapsulation, Solectria inverters and a custom-designed UniRac ballast racking system.   The array, commissioned on December 15th , is already performing up to standard and is expected to offset Lithographix’s energy demand by 30 %.
