Trinity Energy project takes Florida Costco distribution center off-grid

Solar Builder

Costco's Port St. Lucie distribution center transitioned off-grid on July 28, powered by an integrated solar and battery storage system developed by Trinity Energy. The system supports all critical operations, including EV charging, while reducing strain on the grid during peak demand.

This project demonstrates the growing viability of off-grid solutions for large commercial facilities, aligning with sustainability goals and reducing operational risks tied to grid dependency.

Why it matters: The rise of off-grid commercial projects signals a potential shift in customer expectations. Expanding SolarTogether to include tailored solutions for large facilities could help FPL retain market share and address evolving energy needs.
