RECENT NEWS:


PNC BANK = NET ZERO

IN DOWNTOWN FORT LAUDERDALE FLORIDA PNC BANK IS RAISING THE BAR

WITH A NET-ZERO ENERGY USAGE BANK

Florian completed work on a branch of PNC Bank, which goes beyond Net-Zero energy usage to send power back to the local grid.

The 4,900-square-foot, LEED Platinum branch currently consumes an estimated 70,000 kilowatt hours of energy per year, compared to the roughly 84,000 kilowatt hours it produces. The 14,000-kilowatt-hour difference is equivalent to the energy it takes to power a 1,600-square-foot house for a year.

Green features of the bank include 211 solar panels, high-efficiency LED lighting, Energy Star appliances, and an energy recovery ventilation system which dramatically reduces heating and cooling costs. The landscaping, which includes only local plant species to minimize irrigation needs, and paving designed to reduce rainwater runoff, also features a fitness path which is open to the public.

FLORIAN TO HELP KICK OFF AMERICAS FIRST

CARBON NEUTRAL BANKS

TD Bank & Florian Solar Design Center are making great strides in the solar community launching America’s first carbon neutral bank chain. At a press conference held in Farmingdale, N.Y., on February.18, 2010, executives have announced that TD Bank is carbon neutral. They unveiled plans for the green design of new stores, which will include state-of-the-art technology to reduce energy consumption by 50%. To achieve this TD Bank teamed up with Florian to design a solar drive-thru canopy system: a translucent canopy sheltering drive-thru areas that produces electricity for the bank’s use.

TD Bank has built greener buildings with lower energy consumption and invested heavily in renewable energy. TD Bank has also pledged to develop LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) certified stores throughout the nation.

TD Bank came to Florian looking for a cost effective, attractive looking modern solar alternative. Florian designed multiple drive-thru solar systems to suite each banks individual size, style, and energy needs. All of these are designed to hold Sanyo’s unique bifacial HIT double photovotaic modules. This innovative product line is being added to TD Banks around the country and with numerous systems already completed. Florian is proud to help TD Bank become as green as it’s logo.

Featured in the above picture is TD Bank's new 3,800 sq ft first green LEED certified prototype store located at 214-32 Jamaica Avenues Queens Village, N.Y. This store features two Florian Solar systems. One over the entrance in a trellis design and the other over the three lane drive-thru housing 72 Sanyo HIT bifacial photovoltaic modules.

Solar product line debut San Deigo, CA
at Solar Power International 2008.

FLORIAN is proud to announce its partnership with SANYO, one of
the leaders in the solar industry. FLORIAN & SANYO offer a wide
range of refreshing architectural possibilities including awnings,
canopies, carports, trellises and more. The HIT® Double solar
module is the most efficient photovoltaic panel in the solar industry
when combined with a Florian structure since it utilizes the panels
under side to receive the proper sunlight to work at
maximum capacity.

FLORIAN designed, built & installed the above display, which was
showcased on the SANYO booth at Solar Power International 2008 in
San Diego. The display had 3 SANYO HIT® Bifacial Solar Panels
installed (see underside on left). Our sleek residential design stole the
show as well as provided a great example of what solar should be.
We are excited to lead the industry toward structural solar living design.
