They installed thirty 285-watt SolarWorld modules on the roof of the campus auditorium. This builds on the twelve modules that were previously installed at the campus' science center last year.
The students at this small liberal arts college in Elkins, WV have, for the second year running, installed more solar PV capacity than any other residential college in West Virginia. The enthusiasm and funding for their projects comes directly from the students.
Students initially identified locations on campus where they thought solar might be a good fit. We met last fall to look at one of the better locations - the Harper-McNeeley Auditorium. Turns out that the site was sweet!
It is always a pleasure to work with the D&E students. They are hardworking, smart, and affable. Our installation of thirty solar panels, thirty Enphase microinverters, and the associated wiring was polished off in record time. Everyone ended the day sun-kissed and pleased with the result.
