US based Sunpower Corp., has broken ground on a 10 MW PV system at the Redstone Arsenal U.S. Army post in Alabama which is expected to create more than 200 jobs at peak of construction. With a newly added 1 MW energy storage system, the project is designed to strengthen energy security and resilience at Redstone Arsenal, supporting the Army's efforts to reduce electricity costs at installations while also making them more energy independent, says the company.

To date, Sunpower has designed and installed solar power systems at a number of military facilities including more than 28 MW at Nellis Air Force Base in Nevada and 13.78 MW at Naval Air Weapons Station China Lake in California. 28 MW are currently under construction at Vandenberg Air Force Base.
