Liberty Self Storage, Covington, La., is a multistate storage facility business and Louisiana’s largest solar-powered company. In 2016, the company dedicated itself to green energy, commissioning solar conversions for the first nine of its 12 locations in St. Tammany Parish, but this time the company wanted to do something different at its Covington facility.

In line with its liberty name and what it represents, the company chose an American flag solar panel array designed by The Next Energy Technology, Kenner, La. The 74.88-kilowatt DC solar array is mounted to an MBCI® Ultra-Dek® standing-seam metal roof with an S-5!® PVKIT® 2.0™ Direct-Attach™ solar solution paired with S-5-V Mini clamps, allowing precise physical module arrangement to achieve the artistic objective.
