Spanning more than an acre of the roof on the University of Akron’s Stiles Field House Athletic Facility, the 638.1 kW array is the largest of its kind in Ohio. Representing the University’s commitment to energy conservation, the installation offsets approximately 1% of the institution’s energy consumption and reduces the peak demand by nearly 5%. With an estimated cost savings of $2.3 million over 30 years, because of A&P’s turn-key DesignBuild-Operate solution, the University had no out-of-pocket costs yet maintains the long-term ability to purchase the array from A&P at either the 10- or 20-year anniversary of project completion.

This project consisted of 455-kW adhered pliable thin-film modules, which were part of a larger $37.9 million historic preservation project on the United States Air Force Academy Campus in Colorado Springs, Colorado. These frameless solar-panels are applied to the top of the roof membrane in a near-integrated application to allows for an unobtrusive solarprofile without the cost of a totally integrated model. Other significant benefits of this system include a reduction of the overall structural capacity required to support the array and the flat installation’s shade tolerance. This project is an excellent example of A&P’s ability to enhance a historic facility with solar power without jeopardizing the client’s desire to maintain the established aesthetic and building profile.

This project is comprised of 403 Phonosolar 240 w modules and a central 100 kW inverter. The solar scope was added to an existing contract to construct a 72,000 sf new replacement elementary school for the school District. The ballasted mounted panels placed on two separate rooftops features a string level monitor that allows A&P’s maintenance and operation team to assess the individual performance of each group of panels to verify maximum output. A&P will own and operate this array in a power purchase agreement with the District long after the larger building scope was released to the client’s authority.

This project features four ground-mounted arrays and one roof-mounted array, which feed transformers at five different schools in support of the District’s energy needs. A&P owns and operates these units and leases the mounting space from the District. Each ground-mount array is comprised of 263 Ten K Solar modules and reflectors, while the rooftop system is composed of 134 phonosolar polycrystalline panels. Greene County Schools benefited from A&P’s ability to provide a turn-key, Design-Build-Operations solution and has garnered the District significant positive media attention and additional revenue.

Integrated into the County’s Public Utilities Operations and Vehicle Maintenance facility, the scope involved mounting 962 modules to a standing seam metal-roof of a large vehicle port. Our team’s ability to not only lead the design and installation phases of the solar project but also manage the overall construction of the supporting vehicle port structure was a key differentiator during the client’s selection process. A&P’s deep national vendor relationships allowed the team to acquire a specialized racking system from a Colorado-based solar vendor whose system is specifically fabricated for the standing seam roof. Despite the project’s location in the rainy and often cloudy Pacific Northwest, this installation continues to provide reliable, high-volume solar power that regularly exceeds the monthly projections established pre-installation.

This project uniquely disperses the manpower and resources required to design, construct and operate several different municipal systems under a single delivery timeline, streamlining the overall costs. Each of six different small 40kW arrays was integrated into a single scope by working with the various municipalities to leverage a common Minnesota Made rebate. The rebate allows area solar clients to receive significant financial incentives for using Minnesota Made PV products. Each configuration was tailored to the City’s needs, with installations mounted on a combination of public schools and public safety buildings throughout the Minneapolis area. By contracting independently but simultaneously, the clients were able to achieve an economy of scale typical of a large enterprise without overextending fiscal resources by acquiring systems that would be more on par with a smaller application. Municipalities involved in the project include Minneapolis Public Schools, the City of Waconia, the City of Woodbury, the City of Mankato, the City of Rogers, and Mounds Park Academy.
