According to a previous Greentech Media report, Beamreach Solar accumulated around US$250 million in costs over the lifetime of the company, which was formerly known as Solexel for the majority of its life.

The company re-launched at Intersolar North America in 2016, offering an integrated industrial and commercial rooftop system that claimed a design that enabled higher flat rooftop module density and fast installation using a lightweight PV module.

SVD and Onyx are immediately offering the facility as a Turnkey / In-place sale, rather than through an auction as previously reported.
