Solar Carport Case Study

Project Brief​

In 2018, ESA was selected as the Engineering, Procurement, and Construction subcontractor to a major utility in Florida to construct a 434.7 kW single tilt carport canopy at the Pelican parking lot on the St. Petersburg Pier.

This solar project is a part of greater scope to renovate the St. Petersburg Pier and revitalize the community with new restaurants, shops, and vendors. The project is a cooperative effort between the City of St. Petersburg, Skanska Construction, RBI and ESA.

As the primary EPC, ESA worked directly with RBI to manage the carport design and construction as well as coordinating with the Utility and the City of St. Petersburg to meet an aggressive construction schedule.
