The project is split into two separate systems, the first of
which (Equipment Garage, Community Solar, Array A) boast a 124.5
kWp capacity installed in front of the meter for efficient off-site
energy utilization by the local community. The second system
(Office, Net Metered, Array B), a 106 kWp solar power capacity,
positioned behind the meter for additional on-site energy system
utilization, reliability, and flexibility.
“We are so thrilled that the construction of this important
project is officially completed and are proud to be a partner to
WMGLD on their sustainability journey,” said Pete Christakis,
Executive Vice President and General Manager of the East Region at
Ameresco. “The clean energy transition wouldn’t be possible without
the help of organizations committed to implementing sustainable
infrastructure upgrades like solar energy solutions that can make a
real difference, both in the short and long-term.”
The first and second arrays, with respective one-year production
estimates of 143,400 kWh and 118,731 kW, were financed through both
a community solar offtake program and via a Net Metering Feed in
Tariff.
“Collectively, we are always looking for opportunities to
maximize our environmental impact in line with our power supply
decisions, and this collaboration with Ameresco represents a
perfect opportunity for us to continue to find ways to support our
clean power efficiency,” said Vinnie McMahon, Senior System
Engineer at WMGLD. “This collaboration firmly aligns with our
commitment to being a responsible leader and steward to the
environment.”
Construction on the project began on Friday, November 3, and
both systems were completed March 1st, 2024.
