Solar Power is a Natural Fit for The Nature Conservancy

The Nature Conservancy's Great Bay office in Newmarket, NH

The Nature Conservancy's Great Bay office in Newmarket, NH will be nearly carbon neutral after the installation of a 6.1kw grid-tied solar elecrtric array. The solar array is designed to cover 100% of the office's electric load and will offset nearly 6,000 pounds of carbon pollution each year.

To celebrate its energy independence, the Great Bay office is hosting a Solar Open House later this month. The public is welcome to stop by between 4 pm and 6 pm on Friday, April 21 . The office is located at 112 Bay Road in Newmarket, NH . A ReVision Energy representative will be on hand to answer questions about the solar array.

ReVision Energy donated labor to perform a structural upgrade that was required before the installation could start. About half a dozen employees donated their time. As a benefit of employment, ReVision Energy pays its employees to perform up to eight hours of community service each year.
