"UNI-SOLAR laminates are a perfect fit for the South Country
School District which was looking to install efficient and powerful
solar energy systems," said AGT's President, Michael Kornahrens.
"We are proud to provide excellent products to help the South
Country School District strive for energy independence and play a
major role in reducing greenhouse gases, all while educating the
students on the importance of renewable energy."
These installations are expected to save the district more than
$152,533 annually and will provide a carbon offset of 824 metric
tons per year. The annual energy generation to the district is
projected to be over 948,000 kWh per year – approximately 158,000
kWh of energy generated per school.
"UNI-SOLAR laminates are the most seamlessly-integrated solar
products available today, which makes them a very desirable option
for projects like those in the South Country School District," said
Ken Fox, President-Americas of United Solar. "Educational
partnerships such as this are critical to the future sustainability
of our planet. By educating today's youth on renewable energy, we
are developing a foundation for long-term sustainability."
Weidersum Associates Architects PLLC, a full-service
architectural firm located in New York, was the project developer
and Triple M Roofing, a New York-based roofing company, was the
installer of choice for this installation.
A web-based solar monitoring system provided by AGT has been
installed at each school, displaying real-time usage data. The
monitors will detail energy and cost savings, providing school
visitors, students and staff a clear understanding of the
advantages of this earth-friendly technology and a hands-on
educational tool.
United Solar has more than 25 years experience in the industry
of solar power generation, and is the largest manufacturer of
lightweight flexible solar panels in the world.
