Project Information

Project Overview

Installation of a roughly 100 kW solar photovoltaic system at the Madison Police Department East District Station. The system will be a combination of roof mounted and ground mounted modules and will produce an estimated 131,000 kWh per year. When combined with the building’s existing ground mounted system, 85% of the building’s electricity usage will be generated by the solar arrays. The array will be installed by the Engineering Division’s GreenPower program where trainees with little to no electrical skills are provide on-the-job training through solar installations on City buildings.
