Overview

|
Solar Power Partners (SPP) developed an efficient
solution for the Lagunitas School District,
building a 57.00 kW system that will generate
about 86,000 kilowatt hours (kWh) annually.
Working quickly to determine the needs of the
school district, SPP prepared a solar Power
Purchase Agreement that allowed for no upfront
cost to the school while still providing a
significant positive return. The system now
provides an estimated 70% of the school’s
annual power needs and is expected to provide
a cumulative savings to the school district
of over $110,000 over the contract term. If
the school district utilizes its extension
options, cumulative savings could be greater
than $420,000.

SPP met the expectations and financed the
solution in a short amount of time. This enabled
the delivery of a solar solution at no upfront
cost to the school while providing a significant
positive return on zero dollars invested. The
installation was constructed over the summer
and completed before the new school year began.
The solar facility provides an estimated 70%
of the school’s annual power needs, generating
approximately 86,000 kilowatt hours (kWh).
The Lagunitas School District expects a cumulative
savings of $110,000. If the school district
utilizes its extension options, cumulative
savings could be greater than $420,000 over
its lifetime.
