Argand Energy Solutions, based in Charlotte, N.C., has begun work on the installation of a 497 kW PV system at J&S Wholesale and Rental on North Fayetteville Street in Asheboro, N.C. The installation uses U.S.-manufactured modules from Sharp.
J&S will receive a lease payment for otherwise unusable rooftop space as it acts as the project's host site, Argand Energy Solutions says. J&S will lease its rooftop to a third party that will sell the renewable energy and credits to Progress Energy Carolinas under the SunSense Commercial Solar PV program.
