Inovateus Solar Relies on the AET Rayport™ Mounting System for the Largest Rooftop Array Installed in Detroit at the BlueCross and BlueShield Campus
(DETROIT, Michigan), September 2011 – Applied Energy Technologies (AET), a leading global provider of PV mounting solutions, is pleased to announce the utilization of the AET Rayport™ Stainless Series Roof Ballast Rack for the DTE installation of a 200 kW system at the BlueCross and BlueShield Campus in Detroit.
Comprised of 936 Schott 235 Watt solar panels and covering 28,000 square feet, the PV array is the largest rooftop system in the city of Detroit. NOVA Consultants, Inc., the contractor for DTE, performed the design engineering and layout of the solar PV array and selected Inovateus Solar to supply the solar panels, inverters and the AET Rayport™ mounting system. The solar system generates power equivalent to what is typically consumed by 40 homes in a year. Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan is among the first organizations in Michigan to participate in the DTE SolarCurrents program.
"We really enjoy working with the team at AET," says Peter Rienks, Project Manager at Inovateus Solar. "The project went together smoothly and working with intelligent engineers and designers at AET was very refreshing. The Rayport™ system was the perfect solution for BCBS."
