SkyFire recently announced the installation of a solar system on a private residence south of Calgary to power a Tesla Roadster, the world's first electric supercar. The array of 12 installed solar panels will deliver enough energy to offset 100 per cent of the car's annual charging requirements.
Prior to installation, SkyFire, one of Canada's largest solar Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC) contractors throughout Western Canada, the Northwest Territories and Ontario, monitored the necessary energy usage during the first few months and sized a 2160-Watt photovoltaic system to generate the requisite amount of energy from the sun.
