Vince McClelan of Energy Design Co in Eugene OR installed a canopy over a
fueling station in Eugene.It was a roughly 30kW project and looks
beautiful...you may contact those folks for more info. Sequential
Biofuels is the name of the gas stationThey sell biodiesel, ethonal and

Hi Jay,
My experience was the exact opposite with Unisolar triple-junction structural
standing seam systems in 1996 and megawatts of Unisolar from 2003 to 2007. My

(PVWATTS uses crystalline PV temperature coefficient).
Joel,
I've been either a participant or observer of the PV field/industry as long

Hi Marco,
