All-Pro Electric provides fast-track solar PV installation at Bradford Christian Academy

All-Pro Electric has recently completed the design and installation of a 5.4KW photovoltaic system for Bradford Christian Academy. The NECA contractor performed all phases of the project – contract negotiation, system design, rebate application, material procurement, permitting, grid interconnection approval, installation, inspection and commissioning – in only 8 weeks to meet schedule requirements. All-Pro designed the system to allow for maximum usage of available square footage while retaining an aesthetically appealing appearance in keeping with the building’s hip style roof. To accomplish this, the Company specified and utilized a Sharp photovoltaic panel system. Project manager John Donovan supervised the project, and system installation was performed in under one week by All-Pro's team of three IBEW electricians, headed by foreman Sean McDonald. The fast-track project was completed in December 2008 when the solar system went online. The NECA contractor installed the system at no cost to the Academy. This arrangement was accomplished by entering an agreement using Massachusetts Solar 3rd Party Ownership Program. The power produced by the system is purchased by the Bradford Christian Academy at a discount from what they would pay from the local utility company.
