SunPower Corp., Helio Micro Utility and the San Jose Tech Museum of Innovation (The Tech) have dedicated a 185 kW solar electric system at the museum – the first commercial solar system on a downtown San Jose building.
Designed and installed by SunPower, the system features SunPower T10 Solar Roof Tiles, equipped with SunPower solar panels. T10 Solar Roof Tiles are non-roof penetrating and tilt at a 10-degree angle to increase energy capture. The system, which is located atop the roof of Parkside Hall, a facility adjacent to The Tech's main structure, will generate enough electricity to match approximately 10% of The Tech's electricity use.
