By: Planet Solar SANTA BARBARA, Calif. - April 16, 2013 - PRLog -- When it comes to solar power, Puerto Rico is quickly taking a leadership role in the Caribbean, according to the CEO of Planet Solar, a Southern California-based company that specializes in the design and installation of solar energy systems.
The project, at the Outlet Mall Route 66 just outside of San Juan, involves 1.4 Megawatts of photovoltaic solar modules that will provide over 70% of the total electrical demand to the 446,000 square foot complex. The property includes over 60 premium outlet stores, such as Ralph Lauren, Tommy Hilfiger, Bass, Liz Claiborne, and Guess, as well as a movie theater, food court and a carousel. Planet Solar is the developer of a proprietary solar panel mounting solution, tested to withstand 172MPH wind speeds, a technology that meets the region’s stringent Hurricane Zone Hazard Area requirements. “We are excited and proud to be chosen for another project that helps Puerto Rico meet its solar energy initiatives, as it firmly establishes itself as the leader of energy conservation in the region,” said Planet Solar CEO, Ben Siebert, whose company is responsible for designing and installing solar power energy systems for several Affordable Housing communities in the region. Planet Solar has been designing and installing solar energy systems since 1983 and has offices throughout California, with satellites in Florida, Arizona and Puerto Rico.
