Last week, the five-member North Huntingdon Zoning Board unanimously decided that a solar power system in a residential area in the township is an essential service under the township’s zoning ordinance. That overturns a November zoning decision denying Bear Peak Power North Huntingdon LLC’s application for approval to install the solar panels in a 30-acre area along Schade Hill Road. Attorney Michael Korns, representing Bear Peak Power, argued that the zoning ordinance deems a public utility providing an electrical service as an essential service in a residential area. While Bear Peak Power is a privately owned company, it is a public utility in the sense that its electrical service would be connected to a FirstEnergy Corp. electrical line and distributed through power lines in North Huntingdon. Kudos to North Huntingdon Township for recognizing solar as an essential service! We hope more municipalities will follow their lead. 👏 👏 #solar #solarenergy #solarpower #energy #renewableenergy #renewables #zoning https://lnkd.in/eSh4Jff8

Your commercial solar lighting project can’t afford to risk incorrect lighting levels, unreliable lighting or inadequate storage capacity. Your project needs a solar lighting solution that you can trust. It needs to: · comply with relevant Australian standards; and · be specifically designed so that it accommodates the unique conditions of your lighting application. How do you make sure you choose a reliable solar lighting solution? The Lighting Council Australia provides a helpful "Commercial Solar Lighting Guide" to help you understand what you need to consider, questions you should ask your solar lighting provider and what boxes need to be ticked. Use this handy guide for choosing the right solar lighting solution for your project and you’ll be on your way to a successful solar lighting installation. #solarlighting #lighting #construction #civil #infrastructure #mining

Exciting progress in Fulton, NY! AMS Renewable Energy is proud to announce the successful completion of the first phase of civil construction for Volney I and Volney II Solar Farms, developed by Radial Power LLC. Located side by side, these community solar farms have a combined capacity of 14MW, contributing to cleaner energy solutions for the region. AMS is delivering full turnkey engineering, procurement, and construction services, from construction-ready plan sets through to commissioning and testing. This project showcases innovative engineering with Polar Racking Inc.'s 1P Sol-X Single Axis Tracker system, paired with ground screws for a robust foundation. These measures were specifically designed to address glacial till conditions observed during pull testing, ensuring long-term reliability and efficiency. We're thrilled to bring these renewable energy solutions to life and contribute to a sustainable future for the Fulton community. Stay tuned for updates as we advance toward completion! #RenewableEnergy #SolarPower #Sustainability #CleanEnergy #CommunitySolar #EngineeringExcellence #FultonNY #SolarEPC #SolarConstruction #CivilConstruction #NewYorkSolar #SolarInstallation

A new survey conducted by Ducker Carlisle concludes that aluminum use in the building and construction market will likely increase around 9% by 2027 over 2022 volumes. The report found that increased use in commercial buildings and clean energy applications like solar installations will drive much of the growth in the coming years.

Three new and massive industrial park warehouses in New Jersey are going to generate 10.5 MW in on-site community solar in the near future through a new agreement with renewable energy developer Altus Power. Altus Power will construct the solar arrays on three logistic buildings within the Arsenal Trade Center development in Sayreville. The overall industrial park layout covers more than 1.1 million square feet and is being developed by Trammell Crow Co. (TCC) and CBRE Investment Management. Upon completion, the benefits of the clean electric power generated from the solar array will be made available to CBRE IM tenants and local New Jersey residents through the Altus Power Community Solar program, part of the New Jersey Community Solar Energy Program. The clean electric power is expected to benefit up to 1,800 households. Community solar offers a nearby and affordable subscription alternative to local electricity consumers who want to support clean energy within their region. It is less expensive upfront than residential rooftop solar, and considered more direct than larger utility-scale renewable projects. The Arsenal Trade Center project also is developing energy efficiency technologies to reduce carbon emissions. The U.S. Green Building Council earlier this year awarded the project its LEED BD+C Gold certification for warehouses and distribution centers. LEED is the acronym for the Green Building Council’s federally recognized Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design. One of Arsenal Trade Center’s major tenants is JW Fulfillment Inc., which is leasing a 342,000-square-foot warehouse at the complex.

On average, the construction process for new solar sites falls between 3-9 months depending on site accessibility, how big the array will be, and location. In our latest video, we detail the solar construction process and cover what you can expect after signing a lease. Check out the video to learn more: https://hubs.li/Q034D5VL0
