Overview and System Location:
The Holmes St Community Solar Farm will be on Holmes Street in Rockland, Maine. The solar array will be installed in the field between Holmes St, Lovejoy St, and Valley View St. The system will be interconnected the existing CMP distribution line.
System Design:
The proposed solar farm has a minimum size of 100 kW maximum size of 350 kW. The solar system will consist of approximately 330 to 1,150 Renesola 305W polycrystalline solar modules mounted using a RBI driven pile ground mounting system.
The modules are wired together in a series and parallel configuration and then interconnected to the utility grid through SMA TL grid tied inverters (note 1). The array performance will be monitored by SolarLog utility grade meter system which provides access to real time system performance to members, and facilitates the sale of Renewable Energy Credits.
Note 1: all component specifications are preliminary and components may be substituted for the functional equivalents until project final design and contract
System Performance:
Module Orientation: 180 degrees (true)
Module Pitch: 35 degrees
Shading: < 5% estimated
Total Solar Resource Fraction: > 95%
At this nearly ideal solar site and with the benefit of effective convective module cooling from the ground mounted system, the 62 Holmes St Community solar farm is expected to produce 1,252 kWh per kW on average through the year. ReVision Energy’s solar advisors will be glad to size a share in the solar farm to meet your particular renewable energy goals.
Overall System size: 100 – 350 kW
Minimum Share size: 15 kW (50 modules)
Total number of shares available: 9
Expected Construction date: Fall 2015
