SkyFire Energy Inc. announced today the installation of a solar system on a private residence south of Calgary, Alberta, Canada to power an electric Tesla Roadster.
The array of 12 installed solar panels will deliver enough energy to offset 100% of the car's annual charging requirements.
Prior to installation, SkyFire monitored the necessary energy usage during the first few months and sized a 2160-watt photovoltaic (PV) system to generate the requisite amount of solar energy from the sun.
