ZP-3 Hawthorne Hills Solar Array
Hawthorne Hills Solar Array
Description: The Hawthorne Hills Solar Array consists of 14 different solar arrays installed on individual buildings. Installation of the arrays posed unique challenges on top of the normal complexities of installing solar. There is a need for extra safety, security and aesthetics, as well as ensuring that the generation system does not impact personal medical devices for elderly residence. The design required optimization by selecting the right components and enclosures, management of the requirement for restricted access by residents and ready access by first responders and additional safety measures during construction to ensure that no hazard was presented to elderly residents at any phase.
