Its design, carried out by S.O.M., the New York-based architectural firm, and construction was commissioned by the Korean multinational Samsung. Onyx contributed with the installation of a large photovoltaic canopy of 27,986 sq ft covering the main entrance to the building.

 

Onyx Solar® has taken part in this project by installing a large photovoltaic pergola of over 2,600 m2 located at the entrance to the building with an installed power capacity of 125 kWp.
