The Nora School Installs 48.1kW Rooftop Solar PV System
The Nora School is a nonprofit school located in Silver Spring, MD with the mission to guide students to identify their talents, understand where their challenges lie, and honor their unique identities.
The Nora School is installing 48.1 kW of solar PV energy on the roof, which will produce 55,334 kWh of clean, renewable solar energy throughout the first twelve months of use. Over the next 20 years, the solar PV, which will be installed by Solar Energy Services, will avoid the consumption of 1,106,680 kWh of energy not sourced from the local utility provider, mitigating 784 metric tons of carbon dioxide and greenhouse gas emissions. These energy savings will lead to a projected savings of $41,040 over 20 years in reduced electricity bills for the building.
St. Nicholas’ Church Installs 44.5 kW Rooftop Solar PV System
St. Nicholas Episcopal Church is part of the Episcopal Diocese of Washington which includes Episcopal Churches in the District of Columbia, as well as Prince George’s, Charles, St. Mary’s and Montgomery Counties. St. Nicholas was initially organized as a mission to serve the Darnestown – North Potomac, MD area in 1991.
St. Nicholas’ Church is installing 44.5 kW of solar PV energy on the roof, which will produce 53,909 kWh of clean, renewable solar energy throughout the first twelve months of use. Over the next 20 years, the solar PV, which will be installed by Lumina Solar, will avoid the consumption of 1,078,180 kWh of energy not sourced from the local utility provider, mitigating 764 metric tons of carbon dioxide, greenhouse gas emissions. These energy savings will lead to a projected savings of $10,800 over 20 years in reduced electricity bills for the building.
