Applied Energy Technologies (AET) Reaches 275 MW Milestone

Applied Energy Technologies (AET), a preferred supplier of commercial and utility-scale racking systems and one of the top 10 solar racking companies in the United States, announces that it has crossed 275 MW in installed solar racking systems across the U.S. and South America, and is on pace to surpass 300 MW in the field by year end. Engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) contractors and developers have come to rely on AET’s high quality racking systems and customer service and are now turning to AET for installation. To address this market demand, AET is expanding its services to include solar installations through its subsidiary, Blue Frog, allowing EPCs and developers to have both their solutions from AET and installation services backed by AET.

Blue Frog also recently completed the installation for a 2.2 MW rooftop project in Indianapolis. AET’s Rayport™-B ECO roof ballast was selected for the project.
