Burnaby, Canada (SPX) Feb 29, 2008 Day4 Energy announced that its highly efficient solar modules will be deployed in a new solar installation at the Portland Habilitation Center Northwest (PHCNW), a non-profit organization that trains and employs individuals with disabilities throughout the states of Oregon and Washington. The innovative green building project will feature 4,830 advanced Day4 Energy 48MC solar panels, making the 870-kilowatt solar installation the largest solar electric system in the Pacific Northwest. "We are very proud to have been chosen to participate in this project based on our ability to deliver a premium level solution to PHCNW's electrical power generation needs." said George Rubin, president and COO of Day4 Energy. "The importance of this project goes far beyond the additional sales that it generates for the company. Following our successful completion of a one megawatt project with German utility EnBW, this project in Portland marks a significant next step for Day4 Energy as our largest PV system in North America at this time." Day4 Energy 48MC photovoltaic panels were incorporated into PHCNW's design for the new facility from its earliest planning stages. "From the start, our priority with this facility was to include the most advanced elements of green building; specifically, with this solar electric system we were searching for an all-in-one package of high power output, product quality, strong field performance and sleek, modern aesthetics," said designer and architect Ernie Munch. "We selected Day4's modules because they delivered precisely that, and we approached the entire project with Day4 Energy in mind from the outset." "As a non-profit organization, we recognize the importance of being able to direct our dollars toward education and training rather than infrastructure and high energy bills. With Day4 we have a cutting edge technology solution that allows us to address this issue in the most efficient and economic manner without sacrificing aesthetics or long-term performance" said John Murphy, president of PHCNW. "By providing secure access to clean, renewable energy for decades to come, this solar energy system from Day4 Energy enables immediate and on-going economic savings while directly supporting the sustainable growth of our organization." The highly efficient Day4 48 MC solar module is based on the company's proprietary Day4 Electrode technology, an innovative approach to module construction that directly replaces the decades-old soldering connection methods to improve module efficiency, decrease costs and drive continued innovation in solar technology development Community Email This Article Comment On This Article Related Links Day4 Energy All About Solar Energy at SolarDaily.com
