Contra Costa County in California recently selected SunPower to deploy a mix of Helix Roof and Carport solar systems at 10 locations totaling 3.7 megawatts, "which is expected to offset approximately 68 percent grid electricity and save $16.5 million in energy costs over 25 years," SunPower said

"Three of those sites will also feature Helix Storage systems that reach a combined 1.5 megawatts (3,000 kilowatt hours) and deliver significant demand charge savings to Contra Costa County," SunPower said

The County will buy energy produced by the project under a 25-year power purchase agreement and will own the renewable energy credits associated with the solar production
