May have had to do a lot of waterproofing on the foundation--IIRC the location looked rather like a swamp.
Note that while they are in the trees, the solar arrays cannot have even one shadow accross a panel or it blocks output from the entire panel and others in series with it, until the shadow has passed, so they must be in a clearing.
