System Design Custom Solar has designed the system utilizing all American made components utilizing the currently engineered carport structure with options to modify the design. The system has been designed as a turnkey installation including permits, utility interconnections, material procurement and installation. Custom Solar will work the City of Fort Collins to determine the best design to fit the parking garage. Custom Solar will work with the City of Fort Collins team to set up the proper networking to establish good data monitoring communications and will train City staff at the end of the project. Staff training will include hazard identification, system shut down procedures, identification of performance issues and monitoring portal access. An O&M manual will be left onsite for City staff use as well as for the maintenance team. The proposed system as designed will connect to the carport structure as shown in the provided plan set from the RFP solicitation. The PV system will require 90' of the planned 150' structure shown in the drawings. The size of the structure can be reduced to match the array size. Custom Solar requests that the contractor building/erecting the structure add welded metal tabs to the top of the 4x4 beams to allow for the connection of the solar panels to the structure. Providing tabs on the structure will allow Custom Solar to install the PV system to the carport structure without harming the protective galvanized/painted coating on the structure and allow for easier integration. Alternatively Custom Solar requests that the 4x4 HSS beams be replaced with Z-purlins, C-Purlins or Angle to facilitate drilling holes through the beams to bolt panels directly to the structure. Custom Solar can provide structural engineering for the PV systems connection to the carport structure. Custom Solar's planned layout is below. 8 The system has been designed to 54.72kW-dc to meet the requested size of 50kW. The system has been designed using (192) American made Solarworld 285W solar panels. The panels will be paired with (4) Fronius Transformerless Inverters for an AC system rating of 57kW with a favorable 0.96 DC/AC ratio. The inverters have been proposed to be installed on the roof of the building so as to comply with the NEC rapid shutdown requirements and simplify maintenance requirements. We can work with the City if alternative locations are preferred. As designed the PV system will fit between the four light posts planned for the top story of the garage without mechanical interference. The NW light poles do not cause any shading issues for the solar array but the SW light poles will cause a shadow on the PV system in the mornings primarily during the winter. It is a suggestion to relocate the SW light pole further south by ~15' to remove all shading from the PV system. Additional lighting may be required below the PV system. Custom Solar has reviewed the electrical drawings provided in the solicitation and approve of the location shown for the electrical interconnection. Locating the 200A breaker on the utility side of the main breaker allows for the interconnection of up to 57.6kW-AC and can be upgraded in the future to a larger switch to facilitate an expansion of the system. Relocating the switch/breaker to the load side of the main is feasible but will limit the PV AC capacity to 46kW with no room for future expansion. The rough electrical layout has been provided below in the form of a basic one-line diagram. Custom Solar plans to interconnect the system to the 200A breaker as shown. Custom Solar acknowledges that the conduit runs to the electrical room from the roof will be provided by others and requests a minimum 2.5" raceway. Custom Solar plans on pulling wire from the roof to the electrical room and installing all of the necessary disconnects and meters required at ground level per NEC code and Utility requirements. Technology Overview The products used for this project have proven themselves to be very reliable. The project uses standard monocrystalline panels which have a proven track record and have been install for decades. While the technology is nothing new, the products have greatly improved in both performance and quality. Additionally due to the minimal shading concerns seen Custom Solar has chosen to install 4 centralized inverters to reduce the risk of failures seen with DC optimizers and Micro inverter products seen within the last decade. The centralized inverters operate at up to 1000V both decreasing voltage drop along the strings and increasing the efficiency and performance of the inverters. Additionally the inverters used can be mounted in interior locations or exterior next to the PV arrays to me rapid shutdown requirements if necessary. Our current plan is to install the inverter underneath the solar canopies but we can work with the City to determine the final locations. 9 PV Modules The PV modules used in this project are manufactured by Solar World an American Tier 1 manufacture. The model of the panels is a SW 285 W Mono which is guaranteed to have a power output of 0 to +5W over the labeled power rating upon delivery. The PV modules are manufactured with monocrystalline cells and do not use toxic Cadmium. The panels have been designed for wind and snow loads up to 170 psf. Spec sheets are attached in the "Supplementary Equipment Documentation". Custom Solar has been installing Solarworld panels since 2008 with great success. The PV modules performance will be verified during the construction of the system by testing string voltages and comparing the system output to the expected output. Each string will be tested for insulation resistance, short circuit current, open circuit voltage and ground continuity. Inverters The inverters used in this system are the Fronius 3-Phase Transformerless String Inverters. The max efficiency of the inverter is 98%. The data sheets can be found in the "Supplementary Equipment Documentation". Custom Solar has been using the Fronius products since 2008 and has experienced high reliability with the product. The Fronius inverters are Smart Grid ready with many different variables able to be adjusted. Some but not all of the available controls include: Inverter shutdown, Power limiting, Reactive Power, Power Factor, frequency control, etc. Manufacture documentation has been included in the appendix detailing the additional features. Carport Mounting Systems Custom Solar plans to utilize Unirac Solar Mount Rail to connect the PV System to the carport structure. The rail is capable of supporting the 4' spans in between supports and has built in grounding features allowing for a much cleaner installation. The racking system is American made. The system is capable of meeting the local 30psf snow load and 126mph 3-sec gust. The systems design weight will fall below 5 psf for design purposes. 10 System Performance and Monitoring Performance Estimation The systems first year total energy production estimate is shown in the table below. The system is expected to produce 68,392kWh in the first year of serves given past weather data for the area. The annual system degradation is expected to be no more than 3% in the first year and 0.5% for every year following. The production estimates have been generated using NREL's PVwatts calculator with site specific and equipment specific data. 11 Performance Verification & Monitoring The monitoring system provided for this system is manufactured by Egauge Systems. The monitoring system has been used on several commercial sites including on City of Fort Collins facilities. The monitoring system will provide information on the performance and health of the system by recording panel temperature and solar irradiance to develop a model of expected production. The monitoring system will report instantaneous power production information accessible via a web based portal with access given to the installer, owner and any third party users. The basic monitoring will record both energy and power of the inverters onsite and compare it to the modeled energy output. The system will send alerts to the maintenance staff when the system is underperforming or when the system is down so that issues can be immediately resolved. Custom Solar plans to connect the monitoring system via an Ethernet connection to the Cities internet network to establish the most reliable internet connection available. There are no ongoing fees associated with the Egauge when installed using an internet connection. The system performances will be measured and compared to the expected performance by comparing the actual performance to the expected performance as calculated in the following formula: System Adjustment Factors: 1. PV Array DC Capacity (kW) = P 2. Temperature Adjustment = (1-(Tpanel°C-25°C) x (Tcoeff)) = T 3. Irradiance Adjustment = (IRR / 1000W/m^2) = I 4. Inverter Efficiency = E 5. Mismatch and DC and AC wire Losses (~4%) = .96 = M 6. Soiling (0% at time of install) = 1.0 = S Inverter Expected Power = P x T x I x E x M x S The end user interface is an easy to use web-based portal that displays both current and past performance. There are several friendly public views available on the Egauge portal as well as a more comprehensive view used for maintaining the system and analyzing the performance of the system. The portal keeps track of individual inverter performance, alarms, status alongside weather data. An example of the Egauge web based portal with performance modeling can be seen here: http://proto2.egaug.es/5750C/ 12 Example views of Egauge Monitoring System shown below: 13 System Maintenance and Support Custom Solar has a team of 3 people dedicated to technical/customer support. This staff responds to both commercial and residential customer support issues. Our staff reviews all installed systems monthly to ensure all systems are operational. Additionally systems are setup to alert staff in the event of system issues. System availability on all system monitored has been historically above 98%. Issues related to Custom Solar's standard workman warranty are covered by Custom Solar including assistance in claiming manufacture warranties. Custom Solar will handle all O&M if the system is pursued under the terms of a PPA for the full term of the PPA. Under the terms of a PPA it is in Custom Solar’s best interest to respond to and repair all system alerts/issues promptly to insure the system is operating at full capacity and generating a return on the investment. Custom Solar responds to all down systems within 24 hours of an issue being reported by a monitoring system or customer. Phone response hours are limited to 8 am to 5 pm Monday through Friday with emails monitored through the weekends. Depending on the severity of the issue Custom Solar can deploy staff on the weekends to resolve and issue.

(“SolarWorld”), you have chosen a level of quality, which meets the highest requirements. SolarWorld assumes that use in accordance with regulations will reliably maintain the function of the products to produce electricity (hereinafter referred to as: functional capability) as well as reliably maintaining the performance of the products. As a sign of our confidence in this quality, SolarWorld is happy to grant you as the end-user of the products (i. e., the person who put the products into operation correctly for the first time or the person who has legitimately purchased the products from such an end-customer without any modifications) the rights which are presented below: A - Limited product warranty: 1. SolarWorld provides you with a warranty for the functional capability of the products until ten years has elapsed since the purchase of the product and that the product: • will not suffer from any mechanical adverse effects, which limit the stability of the solar module. A condition for this is correct installation and use in accordance with regulations, as described in the installation instructions enclosed with the product. • will not be subject to any clouding or discoloration of the glass. • with its cable and connector plug will remain safe and operational, if they are installed profes- sionally and are not permanently positioned in water (puddle). However, damage to the cable, which is caused by abrasion on a rough lower surface owing to insufficient fixing or owing to unprotected running of the cable over sharp edges, is excluded. Any damage caused by animals (e. g., rodent bites, birds, insects) is also exempted. • with its aluminium frames will not freeze up when it is frosty if it is installed correctly. The ap- pearance of the product as well as any scratches, stains, mechanical wear, rust, mould, optical deterioration, discoloration and other changes, which occurred after delivery by SolarWorld, do not represent defects, insofar as the change in appearance does not lead to a deterioration in the functional capability of the product. A claim in the event of glass breakage arises only to the extent that there was no external influence. 2. If the products exhibit one of the above mentioned defects during this period and this has an effect on the functional capability of the product, SolarWorld will repair the defective products, supply replacement products or provide the customer with an appropriate residual value of the products as compensation at its discretion. B - Limited performance guarantee: 1. SolarWorld guarantees that the actual output of the product will amount to at least 97 % of effec- tive output during the first year after purchase of the product and as of the second year after pur- chase of the product, the effective output will decline annually by no more than 0.7 % for a period of 24 years, so that by the end of the 25th year after purchase an actual output of at least 80.2 % of effective output will be achieved. In the event of a negative deviation of actual product performance from the so-called threshold values, SolarWorld will either supply you with replacement products, which make it possible to maintain actual performance, carry out repairs, which make it possible to achieve actual performance or provide you with financial compensation for the lower performance of the product. During the first 15 years of the guarantee period SolarWorld will exclusively either supply replacement products, which make it possible to maintain the actual performance or carry out repairs, which make such an actual performance possible. After 15 years of the guarantee period SolarWorld is free to also grant financial compensation for the lower performance of the products. 2. When replacement products are supplied, there is no entitlement for the use of new products or those which are as good as new. On the contrary, SolarWorld is authorized to also supply used and/ or repaired products as replacements. C - Further conditions of entitlement: 1. The period of the performance guarantee under B) is restricted to a period of 25 years from the purchase of the product and will not be extended even in the event of a repair or exchange of a product. 2. The effective output and the actual output of the products are to be determined for the verification of any guarantee case using standard test conditions, as described under IEC 60904. The decisive measurement of performance is carried out by a recognized measuring institute or through SolarWorld’s own measurements (the assessment of measurement tolerances is undertaken in accordance with EN 50380). The guarantee does not cover transport costs to return the products or for a new delivery of repaired or replacement products. It also does not cover the costs of the instal- lation or reinstallation of products, as well as other expenditure by the end-customer or seller. 3. Ownership of all products which have been replaced passes to SolarWorld. / Perfect Welding / Solar Energy / Perfect Charging / AFCI & NEC 2014 Compliant TECHNICAL DATA FRONIUS SYMO (10.0-3 208-240, 12.0-3 208-240, 10.0-3 480, 12.5-3 480, 15.0-3 208) INPUT DATA SYMO 10.0-3 208-240 SYMO 12.0-3 208-240 SYMO 10.0-3 480 SYMO 12.5-3 480 SYMO 15.0-3 208 Recommended PV power (kWp) 8.0 - 13.0 9.5 - 15.5 8.0 - 13.0 10.0 - 16.0 12.0 - 19.5 Max. usable input current (MPPT1/MPPT 2) 25.0 A / 16.5 A 50.0 A Max. usable input current total (MPPT 1 + MPPT 2) 41.5 A 50.0 A Max. array short circuit current (1.5 * Imax) MPPT 1/MPPT 2) 37.5 A / 24.8 A 75.0 A Integrated DC string fuse holders NA 6- and 6+ MPP-voltage range 300 - 500 V 300 - 800 V 350 - 800 V 325 - 850 V Operating voltage range 200 - 600 V 200 - 1000 V 325 – 1000 V Max. input voltage 600 V 1000 V Nominal input voltage 208 V 350 V 350 V NA NA 325 V 240 V 370 V 370 V NA NA NA 480 V NA NA 675 V 685 V NA Admissable conductor size DC AWG 14 - AWG 6 copper direct, AWG 6 aluminum direct, AWG 4 - AWG 2 copper or aluminum with input combiner Number of MPPT 2 1 OUTPUT DATA SYMO 10.0-3 208-240 SYMO 12.0-3 208-240 SYMO 10.0-3 480 SYMO 12.5-3 480 SYMO 15.0-3 208 Max. output power 208 V 9995 VA 11995 VA NA NA 15000 VA 240 V 9995 VA 11995 VA NA NA NA 480 V NA NA 9995 VA 12495 VA NA Max. continuous output current 208 V 27.7 A 33.3 A NA NA 41.6 A 240 V 24.0 A 28.9 A NA NA NA 480 V NA NA 12.0 A 15.0 A NA Recommended OCPD/AC breaker size 208 V 35 A 45 A NA NA 60 A 240 V 30 A 40 A NA NA NA 480 V NA NA 15 A 20 A NA Max.

No intervention needed. Grid voltage approaching limit values. Targeted reactive power control stabilises the voltage [Q(U)]. Reactive power is not enough to keep the voltage within the limit value. In-phase effective power control prevents a shutdown [P(U)]. Overvoltage range (mandatory shutdown) Q Reactive power ΔP Change in effective power U Voltage UN Nominal voltage Voltage-dependent reactive power control Voltage-dependent effective power control STABLE GRID DUE TO TARGETED ASYMMETRICAL FEED / Should the voltage be too high in just one phase, Fronius inverters can reduce the power in this phase while feeding more energy into the grid in the other two phases. This targeted asymmetrical feed means there is no loss of energy and the grid voltage is improved. ADVANCED GRID FEATURES FOR A STABLE GRID / The Advanced Grid Features (AGF) incorporate a range of functions that support reliable grid operation. They prevent grid faults and unexpected failures leading to yield losses. In line with new guidelines for energy fed into the grid, these features can be activated at any time.

Seller does not warrant that the Goods will operate with any accessories or within any system not sold under the Agreement and Seller’s warranty is limited to the operation of the Goods in a stand-alone mode. Some countries, states, or provinces do not allow the exclusion or limitation of implied warranties or the limitation of incidental or consequential damages for certain products supplied to consumers, or the limitation of liability for personal injury, so such limitations and exclusions may be limited in their application to an end user and others. When the implied warranties are not allowed to be excluded in their entirety, they will be limited to the duration of the applicable written warranty. The warranty gives specific legal rights which may vary depending on local law. Other legal warranty or liability claims against Fronius remain unaffected by this warranty. In the event of such claims, please contact the vendor of your device. Our General Delivery and Payment Conditions under "Legal information" on our website (www.fronius.com) also apply. Previously valid warranty conditions are replaced by these conditions. Fronius reserves the right to make changes to the warranty process at any time. Current and detailed information about warranty terms and conditions can be found on our website at www.fronius.com/solar/warranty cases ownership of the faulty device/parts is transferred to Fronius when the replacement device is received. If the faulty device/parts is/are not returned to Fronius within 60 days, they will be charged to the installer at the current replacement prices. Fronius Warranty Extension/Warranty Extension Plus An extended warranty can be purchased up to 30 months after dispatch by Fronius. Fronius may reject orders received later. The extended warranties only apply to Fronius inverters unambiguously identified by their serial number. It is possible to extend the warranty to 10, 15 or 20 years from dispatch by Fronius. Considerations when making a warranty claim Contact your installer without delay. They will get in touch with Fronius regarding the warranty process. The procedure in the event of a warranty claim must be agreed with Fronius. This is the only way of ensuring that the warranty services remain free of charge for the warranty holder. Fronius will not bear any costs incurred due to non-observance of the warranty procedures stipulated by Fronius (such as non-agreed transport costs, service charges, travel expenses, installation costs, customs duties, etc.). The installer is responsible toward the warranty holder for observance of warranty procedures. It is the responsibility of the warranty holder to substantiate the warranty claim and show that the conditions are met. In particular, the purchase invoice, serial number of the device and commissioning report (the date on which the device was provided, commissioning date and report from the power supply company), as well as proof of payment of the warranty extension fee, must be presented. The purchase price must have been paid to Fronius in full in order for the warranty service to be provided. the voltage to approach the upper limit values.

In the Smart Grid of the future, generators will communicate with both consumers and the grid to ensure a stable mains supply. Grid operators in the future will also be imposing new requirements on local generators such as photovoltaic systems - requirements that Fronius inverters already meet today. FUTURE-PROOF AND COMMUNICATIVE / With Fronius, you are choosing an inverter packed with a range of intelligent features that is accepted by all energy providers. Over a system service life of at least 20 years, future requirements can be met through quick and easy software updates or plug-in cards. / Smart Grids need communication. Data from the inverter, such as power and voltage, can help the power supply companies to assess the condition of the grid. A communication link with decentralised generators also allows the activation and configuration of grid- supporting functions to prevent losses or power failures. / This symbol stands for a plethora of intelligent features. Fronius inverters are communicative, future-proof and provide stable grid operation. / Fully equipped for the grid of tomorrow with Fronius inverters. Mounting System / PC Board Replacement 4.
