On August 29,  Dynamic Energy, a leader in distributed clean energy solutions, announced it has completed a 907 kW commercial rooftop solar project with Cooper-Booth Wholesale Co., a full-service distributor for convenience store merchandise in the Mid-Atlantic.

Situated on 61,000 square feet of industrial rooftop located at the company's Mountville, Lancaster County warehouse and headquarters, the project will offset Cooper-Booth's rising energy costs while driving the company's green energy initiatives.

The project is expected to generate approximately 1.17 gigawatt-hours of renewable energy annually, offsetting 817 metric tons of carbon dioxide per year, equivalent to the amount of carbon sequestered by 950 acres of US forest in one year.

The solar installation includes 1,680 solar modules.

"Working with Dynamic Energy has been a great experience," said Barry Margolis, president of Cooper-Booth Wholesale Company. "Choosing to go solar was an easy decision, given the significant energy savings and the positive impact on our sustainability goals. This project aligns with our commitment to reducing our environmental footprint while also making a sound financial investment."

With headquarters in Pennsylvania, Dynamic Energy has extensive experience developing and constructing clean energy solutions in the Mid-Atlantic and across the United States.

Dynamic developed, designed, and constructed the Cooper-Booth project to maximize state and federal solar incentives.

As the developer-partner, Dynamic collaborated with the local utility and Authorities Having Jurisdiction to manage the complexities of interconnection, permitting, and installation.

"Dynamic is honored to partner with Cooper-Booth to support its energy needs and sustainability objectives," said Oliver Davis, President of Dynamic Energy. "In addition to being a smart capital investment, this project will reduce grid congestion and deliver a cost-effective way to cut corporate emissions. Lastly, collaborating with Cooper-Booth underscores Dynamic's mission to distribute energy and generate change."
