The PV modules will be installed at the Wuhan Dongxihu Bonded Logistics Center, a large-scale distribution and import-export facility located in the city's bonded logistics zone. The project will consist of approximately 12,000 multicyrstalline Yingli Solar modules, which will be mounted on the rooftops of four separate warehouses, covering a total of 39,000 square meters. The project is expected to generate 39 million kilowatt-hours of clean energy per annum.
Construction of the project will begin in September 2014, and is expected to be completed within 5 months. Once operational, 80% of the electricity generated by the project will be used by the logistics center, and the remaining 20% will be delivered to the municipal utility grid.
"We are pleased to provide our solar modules to this important demonstration project in Hubei province," said Mr. Liansheng Miao, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Yingli Green Energy. "Institutions throughout Hubei province's bonded logistic zone have transitioned to sustainable, low-carbon energy generation in recent years, and we are honored to once again supply an innovative PV project in this region."

RBI Solar - Dahlia Has You Covered
What if you could maximize the Ground Coverage Ratio (GCR) on your next project and not have to worry about the complicated variables that come with a tracker system? With a low tilt and clearance design, Dahlia® has the highest GCR of any fixed-tilt system in the marketplace. The system is available in three tilt options (7.5, 10 and 12.5 degrees) and designed to accommodate any sized PV module. The lightweight system is engineered with fewer components, several of which are shipped to job sites pre-assembled. This design feature reduces freight costs and rapidly trims the amount of on-site installation time required to complete construction. Maximizing PV coverage on a site can lead to an increase of production, which creates greater financial return for project owners. Over 100 MW of Dahlia® projects have been deployed across the United States, in regions of variable snow and wind loads. How much can Dahlia® cover and save you on your next project?
