Massachusetts-based PV project developer Solect Energy announced that it has reached 20MW of solar power through over 150 finished commercial-scale projects — highlighting the company’s focus on delivering solar solutions to small and medium-sized businesses and groups across “The Bay State.”
Ken Driscoll, founder and CEO of Solect, said: “This is an exciting milestone for Solect Energy, which has grown by successfully working with a historically underserved market, small to medium-sized businesses, not-for-profit organizations and municipalities.
“Massachusetts manufacturing companies, commercial enterprises and institutions operate with tight budgets and require customized solutions to gain the maximum return on their capital investments. We are proud that all of our customers view us as a long-term, trusted advisor that will guide them through all phases of the process including feasibility, financing, installation and ongoing system support – with many of these customers coming back to do a second system with us or referring us to their professional network.”
Making up part of Solect’s 150-project portfolio is a 260kW installation on the roof of family-owned apple picking and shipping company Joseph P. Sullivan & Co (JP Sullivan), which, combined with another 99.5kW system on the group’s office building, will help account for over 75% of the company’s electricity needs.
Ned O’Neill, vice president at JP Sullivan, said: “When we first looked at solar with another developer five years ago, the economics did not make sense. However, with today’s financial and tax incentives in Massachusetts, a strong business case emerged.”
In addition, Solect’s 20MW of new projects serve as the equivalent of taking 3,200 cars off the road or cutting down on over 5,500 tonnes of waste sent out to landfill.b
