2011-02-16
SAN JOSE, CA, February 16, 2011 (Press-News.org) SunPods announced today that the Company received a Letter of Intent to utilize the SunPods SOILS (Solar Operational Landfill System) for a closed municipal landfill project. Project Navigator, Ltd. (PNL) via its solar power projects development group, PVNavigator (PVN), has entered into a lease option agreement with the County of San Bernardino to begin the site evaluation to develop a 2 MW photovoltaic (PV) solar facility on their closed Big Bear Sanitary landfill located in Big Bear, CA.

PNL chose SunPods solar technology as the go to approach in their original proposal to the County. The SunPods factory-built solar arrays are delivered fully assembled and pre-wired to the project site. The solar units are then set in place and connected to scale to the specified project size.

The power adjustable legs are easily adjusted to accommodate uneven terrain."

He continues, "They specialize in areas that are critical for implementing renewable energy solutions on compromised land including the often complex design, permitting, and financing phases."
