Posted by Gerard Foote on May 23, 2013

Today’s meeting covered LED fixture questions and concerns:

They presented data and layout with luminescence patterns for 2 fixtures one costing $400. 00/fixture and another $1000.00/fixture. It was mentioned that we need dimming features but no specifics on how or the criteria for that.

Also covered were:

  • different configurations for trusses and rows of PV modules, scaffolding, and height and spacing requirements for same.
  • The module size and efficiency requirements needed to create 1600(Mwh) of power annually, along with quantities per different sq/ft
  • Drainage for the snow and rain off of the modules, along with snow removal equipment in the bay areas
  • Shading impact due to elevator towers, and overlapping rays during the winter months effecting production and how to handle these issues
  • Central inverter scheme being the most effective and the optional layouts and wiring for same.
  • DC combiner boxes layout scheme and wiring to reduce the effects of shading on power production
