PV America – Part One – SPG Solar

Alternative Energy HQ attended the PV America show this week in San Jose CA to get an inside look at the solar power generation industry and what the leaders in PV think about the future of solar energy development. We spoke with a number of business leaders at the show and in coming days we will be featuring those discussions.

Today we are highlighting our conversation with Bill Elwell, VP at SPG Solar which is based in Novato, CA. Bill is in charge of the development of SPG’s SunSeeker® Tracker.

The SunSeeker® Tracker benefits include:

Designed and tested to endure all weather conditions
Up to 25% more power generated compared to a fixed-tilt system
Streamline and flexible design to use less land, concrete, steel, cabling and wiring
Pre-assembled, no field welding or cutting required and fewer posts needed, reducing labor costs and allowing for full scalability
Built to last with few moving parts, corrosion-resistant steel and minimal required maintenance

Here is the discussion we had at PV America with Bill Elwell of SPG Solar.
