Costa Mesa, CA
Brewer & Brewer Law Offices is a distinguished legal practice in Costa Mesa, California, committed to providing high-level representation and counsel to the Orange County community. Operating a professional legal suite requires a consistent, high-quality power supply for extensive server cooling, high-capacity digital archiving, and sophisticated climate control. To hedge against the rising costs of practicing law in Southern California, Brewer & Brewer partnered with Stellar Solar Commercial to deploy a state-of-the-art 42.2kW (DC) solar and storage-ready strategy.
Designing a solar solution for a prominent law office requires a sophisticated approach to electrical stability and long-term hardware reliability. Stellar Solar Commercial engineered a robust rooftop system that maximizes the facility’s solar harvest while providing the advanced inverter technology necessary for future-proof energy management.
The technical architecture of the Brewer & Brewer installation features:
-87 Hanwha Duo XL-G10 c/BFG 485W Modules: These high-performance, bifacial modules represent the cutting edge of industrial efficiency. By capturing sunlight from both sides of the panel, these 87 modules maximize energy yield on the law office’s rooftop, ensuring peak production even during Costa Mesa’s overcast mornings.
-3 Sol-Ark 15K-LV (208V) Hybrid Inverters: The selection of Sol-Ark inverters marks this system as a truly modern, storage-ready installation. These hybrid inverters are renowned for their high-speed switching and ability to manage both solar production and battery storage simultaneously, providing the office with a pathway to total energy independence.
-42.2kW (DC) Installed Capacity: This system was precisely sized to neutralize a significant portion of the firm’s daily electrical load, transforming a traditional overhead cost into a predictable, self-generated asset.
For a professional services firm, electricity is a major and traditionally volatile operational expense. By generating its own power on-site, Brewer & Brewer has effectively reclaimed control over its monthly overhead. In the 2026 energy landscape, where utility rates for Orange County commercial properties have reached historic highs, the foresight of this installation provides a significant competitive advantage.
Every kilowatt-hour produced by the Hanwha array is a kilowatt-hour the firm does not have to purchase from the utility at premium peak rates. This creates a permanent stream of capital savings that can be redirected toward:
-Technological Modernization: Investing in the latest legal research tools and secure digital infrastructure.
-Client Service Enhancements: Maintaining a premier, climate-controlled environment for consultations and depositions.
-Fiscal Resilience: Protecting the firm’s bottom line against future utility inflation for the next two decades.
