• Real Time Monitoring – Each facility includes a kiosk connected to the data acquisition system, allowing visitors to view real-time energy production and learn about solar power’s impact.
• Cost Savings – CML offsets a significant portion of its electricity usage, reducing utility expenses.
• Prevailing Wage – The project was executed in full compliance with Ohio’s Prevailing Wage Law, ensuring fair labor standards.

Kokosing Solar was awarded and successfully completed the installation of 673.96 kW of rooftop solar for the Columbus Public Library (CML). The project spanned six library locations across Central Ohio.

Kokosing Solar designed and installed ballasted rooftop solar arrays. Each system was custom-designed to maximize solar production while ensuring minimal roof penetrations, preserving warranties, and maintaining structural integrity.

Kokosing Solar coordinated closely with AEP Ohio for net metering integration and worked alongside multiple roofing contractors to ensure the installations met warranty and load-bearing requirements. The project featured:

• A fully behind-the-meter interconnection for seamless integration with existing electrical infrastructure.
• A hybrid ballast mounting system tailored to each roof’s structural capacity.
• A robust operation and maintenance plan ensuring optimal system performance for years to come.
