Solar Power for Battered Women

In Western Massachusetts a new YWCA Campus of Hope provides battered women along with their families' daycare, secure shelter, and educational materials. The YWCA will also be solar powered. SCHOTT Solar and BerkshirePhotovoltaicServices (BPVS) have publicized the completion of their 28.6 kilowatt solar pv installation at the new YWCA facility.

"SCHOTT Solar is privileged to help bring solar to the Campus of Hope," Mr. Tom Hecht remarked. Mr. Hecht is President and CSO (chief sales officer) of SCHOTT Solar PV, Inc. He went on to say that "by working with organizations like the YWCA and our partner BPVS, our commitment to a strongU.S. solar industryexpands beyond creating American jobs to creating a meaningful impact for facilities that help improve lives."

Brian Lynch is the regional East Coast sales Manager for SCHOTT Solar and he says the solar project "is a wonderful example of how solar power projects are working in our communities, providing clean, renewable power not just to homes or commercial businesses, but also not-for-profit groups. The system will last for over 25 years, providing the YWCA with a reliable source of solar power to help off-set their power needs."

This solar program is funded by a grant from the Commonwealth Solar Rebate Program as well as The Massachusetts Renewable Energy Trust's Green Affordable Housing Development Program. It was installed and designed by BPVS. The design contains 130 SCHOTT POLY 220 modules, produced in Albuquerque, New Mexico.

The completed project for the YWCA facility will displace in excess of 19 tons of carbon emissions and save more than $5,000 yearly in electricity costs. Although the amount of electricity needed to power the building is as of yet unknown, SCHOTT Solar estimates the solar panels will provide 15 percent of the Campus of Hope's energy needs.

Isabelle Christensen is the Chief Marketing Director of SCHOTT Solar PV. Inc. She says SCHOTT Solar PV. Inc wants "the public to know that solar is a smart energy solution for business owners, government entities and non-profit facilities."
