The Sunbeam - May Edition

Welcome to the May 2022 edition of The Sunbeam!


It's finally warm enough to hit the beach (and still early enough to find a parking spot)! If you’re anything like us, you’ve probably already gotten your first sunburn of the year… 2 years of quarantine seem to have made us forget just how strong those sun rays are! Now that everything is open, enjoy those outdoor events—just don’t forget a hat and sunscreen!


It’s been a busy spring for all of us at CFSS. If you attended any of the Earth Day events this year, you probably saw us—hope you stopped by to say ‘hi!’ We had great turnouts and beautiful weather at each. Speaking of great turnouts, did you attend the 5k at the NC Aquarium at Fort Fisher or the 5k WILMA Dash downtown? We had a blast at each, and a couple of CFSS folks even placed!


We are especially excited to have won Sunpower’s 2022 Regional Commercial Intelegant (a portmanteau for ‘intelligent’ and ‘elegant’) Award and the Wilmington Business Journal’s 2022 Coastal Entrepreneur Award for Professional Services! Both are great honors and we are grateful to be listed alongside the winners of the other categories.


In other news, our new building is continuing to progress nicely. Rooms are getting framed inside and our solar panels are being installed on the roof. If you’ve passed by it recently, were you able to make out the design the solar panels are creating? Hint: it’s usually red, white, and blue.


As always, we thank you for being a pioneer of the renewable energy movement. If you have questions or want to see more articles about certain aspects of photovoltaic systems, please let us know! Our goal is to be an industry and community leader, and we cannot do either without your support.


And, remember to lather up with sunscreen—while our solar panels may enjoy the sun’s power, our skin sure doesn’t!


Sunny Regards,


The Cape Fear Solar Systems Team
