Tony at SAP, Palo Alto

from Facebook to Sol Training:
Tom, We just completed our work through VEP at SAP, in Palo Alto. Some wheres of about 780 panels, on 4 separate roofs, no racking. The panels were mounted on a ballasted system and weighed down with paver stones, with no penetrations. We were informed by the GF (general foreman), we had broken records installing an array this large in 4 days (10 hours each). The good news is, there were guys working on this job that had attended both day and night solar classes at JobTrain, 6 guys. Out of these guys, the ones that attended your classes were: Steve Combs and I, Solar 5 and Paul Ledeboer, Solar 6. The key issue out on these multi-storied roofs is to stay hydrated all day long. The temperature had reached around 120 degrees in certain areas of the roof, at different times of the day; hope you feel like a proud (poppa) or instructor!.........Tony
