SUNNYVALE, Calif. — Level 10 Construction recently announced it has completed a $65-million renovation of the Silevo California Technology Center in Fremont, California, a two-building solar fabrication and R&D facility. Level 10 Construction provided Design-Build services for the 200,000-square-foot project, working with architect M+W Group, Integrated Engineering Services, Inc. and Degenkolb Engineering U.S.A.
Silevo develops and manufactures innovative solar panels that use a proprietary thin-film cell technology to deliver a high amount of power per square foot. Silevo is wholly owned by SolarCity.
Level 10 Construction began work on Silevo’s manufacturing facility in January 2015. The two-building project houses Silevo’s staff offices, R&D facility and cell manufacturing and assembly processes.
The manufacturing plant contains a non-rated cell fabrication area and a localized Class 100,000 cleanroom for cell manufacturing. Level 10 Construction built-out the fabrication space to meet a number of technical requirements, including those for specialty gases, chemicals, CDA, vacuum air, argon, nitrogen wastewater treatment, water recycling and deionized water.
Some of Level 10 Construction’s projects in the Bay Area include the $578-million Moffett Place mixed-used campus in Sunnyvale, and the $540-million, 802-foot-tall 181 Fremont residential and office tower in San Francisco.
