Project: M.C. Dean, Inc.

Location: Baltimore, MD

Project Type: Solar-Integrated Roofing System System Size: 66.512 kW

Completion: January 2011

Description: Pfister Energy of Baltimore, LLC teamed up with Kinsley Construction to install a solar-integrated roofing system on a 200-year-old building, which is adjacent to the Baltimore Ravens Stadium. The project incorporated several renewable energy technologies. First, Pfister replaced the existing roof with a premium Firestone two-ply modified bitumen roofing system to create a watertight barrier for the life of the solar system (25+ years). Following that, Pfister installed a 66.512 thin-film solar array that fully adhered to the roof membrane (62.832 kW(DC) Uni-Solar PV and 3.680 kW(DC) of Trina Solar PV). The remainder of the roof was coated with white elastomeric to reduce heat transfer into the building, thus achieving a solar integrated roofing system.

The new roof is expected to produce 76,954 kWh per year and more than 1.7 million kWh over a 25-year period, which will significantly reduce electric costs.

Project: 143-43 41st Avenue Location: Flushing, NY

Project Type: Solar-Integrated Roofing System System Size: 26.928 kW

Completion: February 2009

Description: The installed system is a truly solar integrated roofing system in that it is applied as an integral part of the roof system. The flexible, lightweight, Uni-Solar Photovoltaic Laminates are applied directly to the surface of the roofing system. The combination creates a most durable, practical energy-producing roof possible. Access to the roof is not restricted due to the ruggedness of the photovoltaic laminates, so compromises for servicing roof-mounted equipment do not have to be made. Roof loading is a non-issue due to the fact that the Uni-Solar photovoltaic laminates weigh less than one pound per square foot, a tiny fraction of the weight of glass-based photovoltaic panels.

Project: Parker Hannifin

Location: New Britain, CT

Project Type: Thin-Film Solar System System Size: 215.040 kW

Completion: February 2009

Description: Parker Hannifin had a 215 kW thin film solar electric system installed on their corporate headquarters in Connecticut. This solar electric system will help offset electrical usage costs to the company. Necessary roof repairs were made before the thin film panels were laid allowing the solar system and the roof to work in conjunction with each other.

Project: South Pole/Wicked Fashions

Location: Fort Lee, NJ

Project Type: Building Integrated Photovoltaics System Size: 30kW

Completion: January 2009

Description: The proposed system is a truly integrated BIPV system in that it is applied as an integral part of

the roof system. The flexible, lightweight, Uni-Solar Photovoltaic Laminates are applied

directly to the surface of the roofing system.

The combination creates a most durable,

practical energy-producing roof possible.

Access to the roof is not restricted due to the ruggedness of the photovoltaic laminates, so

compromises for servicing roof-mounted

equipment do not have to be made. Roof

loading is a non-issue due to the fact that the

Uni-Solar photovoltaic laminates weigh less

than one pound per square foot, a tiny fraction

of the weight of glass-based photovoltaic

Project: Pennsauken Landfill

Location: Pennsauken, NJ

Project Type: Utility-Scale Solar Ground Mount System System Size: 1.09 MW

Completion: February 2008

Description: The reclaimed landfill at Pennsauken, New Jersey was equipped with over 1 megawatt of solar electric power. This large-scale project is a ground mount design using hard panel

photovoltaic modules. Over the life of the system, greenhouse gasses such as Nitrogen, Sulfur and Carbon will be reduced by over 56 million pounds per kilowatt hour, collectively.

The standing seam metal roofs were equipped with

thin film, uni solar photovoltaic panels. The

annual estimated electric production for each of the facilities is as follows:

Mine Hill - 47,572 kWh

Lebanon - 93,350 kWh

Project Type: Solar-Integrated Roofing System System Size: 10.2 kW

Completion: 06/2008

Description: Uni-Solar flexible solar panels were adhered directly to the roofing material to create a lightweight solar roof with an ROI of only a little more than four years. With a lifespan

of thirty years and a twenty-year warranty from the roofing and solar panel manufacturers, this home’s new roof will be generating

revenue for over 20 years. This system is expected to meet 90% of the homeowners electricity demands.
