The owner’s goal was to achieve a LEED Gold certification on their new building. Sprig surveyed the site and created a design by carefully selecting PV components, a solar module arrangement, and supporting equipment. This design included 1,896 solar panels which accounted for 35% of the building’s energy usage and earned a total of eight LEED points, including a regional priority point. This project was able to achieve the certification goal while staying within budget.

Sprig worked with a structural engineer to design a support system for the solar arrays. A ballasted mounting system was utilized to minimize roof penetrations and provide a lightweight install.
