Kyocera Solar to Provide Solar Systems to Zacher Homes
Posted on: Wednesday, 4 June 2008, 12:00 CDT
Kyocera Solar has partnered with Zacher Homes and American Solar Electric to bring solar electric systems to central Arizona's mainstream luxury housing market as a standard feature.
Zacher Homes's three new, all-solar, single-family housing developments in north-central Phoenix, Arizona, will feature solar electric systems on each home incorporating Kyocera solar modules.
Each 1,700-square foot (sqft) to 3,300sqft home will feature a 2kW solar electric system using Kyocera's high-output 205W modules. About 3,500kWh of electricity will be generated annually by each system. For homeowners, this translates into annual energy savings of about $400 at current rates.
A Fronius IG personal display meter will enable homeowners to monitor their own power use, energy output, CO2 offset and dollars saved from using solar electric systems installed on the flat foam roofs with reflective coatings. The solar electric systems will be designed and installed by solar system integrator American Solar Electric.
Tom Dyer, senior vice president of marketing and government affairs for Kyocera Solar, said: "Kyocera Solar is very pleased to partner with Zacher Homes and American Solar Electric on this environmentally friendly residential project. The use of solar electric systems as a new home construction standard is the next step in Kyocera's environmental commitment to provide solar energy to the world."
