SAN FRANCISCO, April 25, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Ecoplexus Inc., a leading developer of solar photovoltaic (PV) systems, today announced that it has commissioned six solar PV projects, totaling 54 megawatts (MW) in North Carolina. The six projects, reaching $79 million in project value, represent the completion of Ecoplexus' second and third portfolios in North Carolina, bringing the Company one step further in its goal of playing a meaningful role in providing renewable solar power to the state. 54 MW of clean energy is enough to provide power to over 5,000 homes, and provide the reduction of approximately 56,000 metric tons of CO2 or almost 130,000 barrels of oil.
