Unirac Awarded Contract for 37.2 MW Ground Mount Steel (GMS)
Installation in Guam
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M., March 26, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Unirac, Inc., a
Hilti Group Company and the leading provider of high quality,
competitive PV mounting solutions in North America has been selected
by Sunora Energy Solutions and NRG Energy to provide a 37.2 MW Ground
Mount Steel (GMS) mounting system to be installed on the island of
Inarajan, Guam. The solar array will offset 15,000 tons of CO2
emissions from fossil fuel generation and provide clean energy to
power the equivalent of 12,000 homes annually.
John Plumlee, CEO of Sunora cited "Unirac is an important partner for
Sunora in helping us achieve our business strategy to bring unique
solutions to large commercial, industrial and utility-grade customers.
We trust Unirac's engineering capabilities; GMS is flexible with a
proven installation base. The system is capable of meeting our
rigorous design requirements while yielding a cost competitive
solution, a critical element for this project when we selected
Unirac."
GROUND MOUNT STEEL evolved from more than 10 years of experience in
the fixed ground mount market to meet a variety of project
requirements. Powerful light gauge structural steel components yield
low material costs. Extremely low total installed costs are achieved
through Unirac's innovative project construction methods with
pre-assembled components. With more than 400 MW installed in North
America, GMS is the system of choice for fixed-tilt commercial and
utility ground mount projects.
"We are privileged to join with Sunora and NRG in advancing solar
energy in communities across the country and abroad," said Peter
Lorenz, Unirac CEO. "Our shared mission is to deliver high-quality
solar solutions at the lowest total cost."
