Colorado Convention Center: A Solar Photovoltaics Case Study
David Henry & Jason Sharpe


This presentation will include an in-depth analysis of the 300 kW solar PV system installed by Namaste Solar on the roof of the Colorado Convention Center. This project represents a unique public-private partnership. Installing such a large roof top system on this landmark building presented technical challenges that required first of their kind innovative solutions. David Henry will discuss the design of the system and the partnerships that made the project possible. Jason Sharpe will discuss the technical details of the project and the challenges that needed to be overcome to make the system viable. This case study will be particularly poignant for the conference participants given that the system is located on the building where the conference takes place.
