Greenwood's Nomination for Finalist in the CEC Solar Design Awards

Greenwood Solutions was nominated as a finalist in the 2023 Clean Energy Council (CEC) Solar Design Awards in the category of commercial over 100kW.

The nomination recognizes the company's excellence in design, installation, and meeting the unique needs of their clients.

In this blog post, we will discuss the project synopsis, what the award means to Greenwood, and Greenwood's philosophy.



Project Synopsis

Greenwood Solutions was contracted to design and install a solar system to help power the substantial pump electrical loads that a wastewater treatment plant experiences, reducing the plant's energy bills and carbon footprint. 

The company embarked on an extraordinary journey, conceiving, engineering, and successfully deploying a ground-breaking 350 kW+ floating solar array that demonstrated unparalleled excellence in design, installation, and meeting the unique needs of their clients.

The project's environmental impact was truly noteworthy. The close proximity of the solar panels to the water's surface led to reduced evaporation rates, making a significant contribution to water conservation efforts. 

Moreover, the panels' adjacency to the water enhanced solar production due to increased cooling and reflection, further amplifying the system's efficiency.
