Description:
In the alternative energy business we are always looking to get bigger. We have competed in the residential and commercial arena for years, we now want to move to the next step, and that would be the Solar Farm. We have 10 acres of property with a large federally run Vocational School next to it with a demand of 5 megawatts a year. We have spoken to them and they are willing to purchase power from us with 2-3 year commitments, I have spoken to the local power provider and they will buy any power generated as well. We are at the point that all we need now is financing for this project. We can build up to a 1 megawatt system on our property and if possible 4 more megawatts on the schools property. This project can break ground in a month.
