I wondered that too. They even had an event to commission it. Must have been some issue later, I guess?
Also annoying that they direct rain into you during heavy downpours.
I charged here yesterday. No more construction tape around the inverters. The big inverter's screen is still blank, although it has green lights on. The little box's screen is showing what appears to be a setup or diagnostic screen. I don't know if it's using solar yet or not--maybe someone here can interpret that.

Posting those pics didn't quite work as I expected.Charged at Orangeburg over Thanksgiving Holiday and the solar panels were in production. Very cloudy so low output.

Let's try it again. Solar panels open at Orangeburg.
2.8 kW at 4pm on a rainy day three weeks from winter solstice? That's still pretty good 
(I realize that may have just been one of multiple inverters.)

Oh, they're definitely in series, but I think you are confusing numbers. Individual solar panels typically produce voltages in the 20-40V range. Stringing them together in series to get hundreds of volts is not only common but expected. You're probably thinking of 350 Watts from a single panel, which is typical for a new panel in 2023.
The only question here is how many series strings these panels are wired in. From the photos I eyeballed about 100 panels, so my guess is they are wiring in a handful of strings -- could be 3, could be 10. Maximum string voltage is 600V or 1000V, depending on Stuff.

No, solaredge makes optimizers that input two panels in parallel and then that pair goes on the string in series.
