IKEA, the world’s leading home furnishings retailer in collaboration with MC Power Companies and SoCore Energy designed, constructed and commissioned the State of Kansas’ largest rooftop solar array atop their Merriam, Kansas store.

This is equivalent of reducing 680 tons of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions annually. A total of 126 strings were used and 19 string panels that included 21 24kW SMA Tripower inverters to convert DC energy to useable AC power.
