Plankton Energy Installs 972 kW Rooftop and Canopy Solar System for ResinTech Headquarters in Camden

Camden, NJ — Plankton Energy partnered with ResinTech Inc. to deploy a 972 kW DC rooftop and parking canopy solar system at the company’s industrial headquarters in Camden, New Jersey. The installation converts underutilized rooftop and parking lot space into a productive energy asset, helping the facility reduce electricity costs while reinforcing ResinTech’s commitment to sustainability and operational efficiency.

Designed as a behind-the-meter solar system, the project generates electricity directly onsite, enabling the facility to offset a meaningful share of its grid electricity consumption.

Dual Rooftop and Parking Canopy Solar Design

The system combines two complementary solar structures across the property:

• Rooftop solar arrays installed across the industrial facility’s roof, capturing direct sunlight and maximizing energy production.

• Parking lot canopy structures that expand total system capacity while providing shaded parking for employees and visitors.

Together, these installations transform unused surfaces into long-term infrastructure assets that support both operational savings and environmental performance.

Customer-Owned Solar Asset

The ResinTech system is structured as a customer-owned installation, allowing the company to fully capture the economic value generated by the solar project.

By producing electricity onsite, the system reduces the facility’s reliance on utility power and helps stabilize operating costs over time. For energy-intensive industrial operations, behind-the-meter solar generation provides a strategic tool for managing long-term energy expenses.

Ownership also enables ResinTech to benefit directly from available federal and state incentives designed to accelerate commercial solar adoption.

Supported by New Jersey’s SuSI Incentive Program

The project benefits from New Jersey’s Successor Solar Incentive (SuSI) Program, which provides performance-based incentives to commercial solar systems that generate clean electricity within the state.

These incentives, combined with the 30% federal Investment Tax Credit (ITC) and accelerated depreciation through MACRS, help improve project economics and support the expansion of renewable energy across New Jersey’s commercial and industrial sector.

Programs like SuSI are designed to accelerate solar adoption while strengthening the state’s distributed energy infrastructure.

Advancing Sustainability and Industrial Efficiency

The solar installation supports ResinTech’s broader sustainability initiatives while demonstrating how industrial facilities can integrate renewable energy directly into their operational infrastructure.

With nearly 1 megawatt of installed solar capacity, the Camden headquarters now generates a substantial portion of its electricity from clean energy. By deploying rooftop and canopy solar infrastructure, ResinTech strengthens both environmental performance and long-term operational resilience.
