Los Angeles Community College District, LA Southwest College, Solar PV Array Improvements

Improving sustainable energy on the campus.

This project includes solar arrays consisting of a 355 kW-DC system spread over five shaded parking areas, combined with four new inverters. The arrays include 1,181 solar panels, each capable of generating 355 watts at full capacity. The expected kWh output of this system is 420 kWh in the first year of operation. This array was designed to combine with the overall campus output and connected back with the Southern California Edison Grid.
