The solar photovoltaic (PV) rooftop system on the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando, Florida, was completed in 2009 over the south concourse. This project is a U.S. Department of Energy Solar America Showcase. This goal of this project has to include five primary components: a 1-megawatt (MW) PV system, four 10-kilowatt PV systems, a 3,000-square foot Climate-Change Education Center, a statewide marketing program, and an economic development program. The showcase 1-MW PV system is the largest rooftop PV system in the southeast United States.
