Hanover, MA – Lighthouse Electrical Contracting, Inc. of Rockland recently completed solar installations at the Planet Subaru dealership in Hanover. The 78.54kW system is comprised of 374 Evergreen Solar panels mounted to the building’s 9,200sf roof via a ballasted Sunlink roof-mount system, specified due to its lack of roof penetration, Satcon solar inverters, and a Solectria data acquisition system.
Lighthouse PM Newell Thomas and Foreman Billy Norcott headed a crew of five electricians based out of Local 103. The project commenced in mid-January and was completed in late April 2011.
The system will supply about 85,000kW of electricity per year, which represents approximately 40% of the dealership’s energy needs.
The Subaru dealership, owned by brothers Jeff and John Morill, has won several awards for their environmentally friendly approach to their dealership including the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s Energy Star Small Business Award and USA Today’s and National Auto Dealer Association’s Dealer Innovation Award.
