Orleans Marketplace goes Solar!

The first Orleans Marketplace solar installation went live today. The system consists of 381 solar panels, is 85kW, and is the largest on Cape Cod, to date. The panels were installed just in time for the days to start getting longer again.

The system, while owned and maintained by Unutility Electric, will provide the electricity at a discount rate to the Marketplace below. This model for system ownership best meets the needs of the building management and provides the Cape with green jobs and less pollution. In addition, a new white membrane roof was installed. This roofing system is also noteworthy as it uses an advanced membrane technology that reduces the building’s heating and cooling energy requirement.

Unutility Electric is planning to replicate this project’s success across New England.
