Royal Solar — Thu, 12 Jan 2012 18:26:14 +0000

Royal Solar of Arizona is proud to announce that we have been able to help the Chevron gas station at 4737 E. Broadway Road Phoenix, Arizona 85040 toward their renewable energy goals by installing a 30.0 kW solar electric system on the shade structure above their gas pumps. This system is comprised of SolarWorld 240 watt solar panels with Enphase Energy M215 micro inverters.

We are very happy to have been able to work with the ownership and management of this forward-thinking gas station. The clean solar energy will be used in the convenience store of the gas station to power everything from lights to soda machines to air conditioning. The solar energy system will also significantly reduce the station’s electric bills.

Here are some statistics about the new solar system:

System Size: 30.0 kW-DC
Number of solar panels: 125
Projected annual electricity production: 55,170 kWh
System is expected to offset 2,640,453 Lbs of Carbon during its lifetime, which is equivalent to planting 27,267 trees.

Residential Solar Testimonial from Show Low, Arizona

Royal Solar — Tue, 05 Apr 2011 18:18:51 +0000

At Royal Solar of Arizona, we enjoy building relationships with our customers. Here is a recent email sent from a residential solar electric customer, who we installed a 7.99 kW solar electric system for in in Show Low, Arizona. We are pleased to hear that our customer is enjoying their solar system and taking additional steps to live a “green” life, including driving an all-electric car that is charged at home by their solar electric system.

Hi Chuck,
Just to let you know that our system has performed flawlessly. We are now over 13 mWh and it looks like we should make somewhere around 15 by the time our first year is up on June 2nd. Please feel free to continue to use us as reference.
Incidentally, we now have our all electric LEAF car and are charging it off the system. It really feels good to know that 90% of our driving will be with “free” fuel. Another use of the system’s current is running the battery chargers I’ve had to put on our gas driven vehicles. It is cheaper for me to drive into town, fill up gasoline containers and come back to the house and fill their tanks, than it is to drive the internal combustion vehicles to the gas station just for a fill up.
