McElroy Metal recently completed the retrofit installation and 500 kW solar project on its manufacturing facility in Peachtree City, Ga. The project, believed to be the largest solar installation for a metal roofing manufacturer, is part of the Medium Scale Georgia Power Advanced Solar Initiative Program. Inovateus Solar LLC, a worldwide installer of commercial and industrial solar power systems, worked with McElroy on the project.
A total of 1,960 solar panels were installed on the plant roof and on a canopy in the parking lot. The half megawatt solar system became operational in late December. The energy generated will not directly power the facility, but will be “sold” back to Georgia Power. The power generated will far surpass Peachtree’s energy consumption.
