As owners of enormous amounts of warehouse space, electrical distributors may take special interest in last week's announcement that warehousing giant ProLogis, Denver, Colo., had signed new leases with Southern California Edison to let the electric utility install PV systems on 4.8 million square feet of its warehouse roof space.

The announcement highlighted the growing demand for rooftop space for solar projects in the Golden State and is the second phase of 100MW-worth of PV installations. Southern California Edison (SCE), the largest electric utility in California, is installing on ProLogis properties. The solar arrays are part of SCE's plans to develop the nation's largest installation of photovoltaic power generation modules to occupy unused rooftop space on industrial buildings. SCE incurs the installation costs and leases rooftop space from building owners.
