Mass High Tech: "General Mills opens solar-powered Methuen facility"
Kyle Alspach, July 23, 2010. General Mills Inc. planned to unveil a solar power array at its Methuen facility Friday, the company’s first solar-powered facility in the United States.
The 110-kilowatt array will provide an average of 55 percent of the annual electricity used by the warehouse building, General Mills said.
The solar power will also offset more than 112,000 poubds of carbon dioxide annually, the equivalent of taking 10 cars off the road, General Mills said. The array was designed and installed by Nexamp Inc., a renewable energy and energy efficiency firm in North Andover.
The array is located at the General Mills’ facility at 35 Danton Road in Methuen. Link to Article
Milford Daily News: "Stimulus powers Ashland DPW building"
Kendall Hatch, July 15, 2010. ASHLAND — Even though the sun beating down on MetroWest for the last few weeks has towns instituting water restrictions and setting up cooling centers, Ashland officials have good reason to welcome all the sunshine they can get.
The first step of a federal stimulus-funded energy project that will save the town tens of thousands annually has been fully operational since Monday. A system of 120 solar panels on the roof of the main Department of Public Works building on Ponderosa Road is now pumping energy to the building. [Nexamp note: as mentioned later in the article, this solar array was installed by Nexamp and partner Florence Electric as part of the state's largest ever solar contract for public water & wastewater treatment plants] Link to Article
