University of Chicago- Logan Arts Center
75kW Photovoltaic Array
Project Description
This project was the university’s addition to help supplement their efforts for
a LEED certified building. The 315 module system has approximate output of
around 75kW. The object of this project was to help offset the university art
center’s energy consumption. Divane Bros. Electric Co. provided the
construction of the array, new distribution equipment, feeders, and a
communication backbone. This communication backbone allows the end user
to be able to identify the current output of the system and any given
moment. The most changeling aspect about this project was that it had an
accelerated schedule of just one month which Divane was able to
successfully complete on time.
