Hotel Breach of By-Law

The Association Committee is continually reviewing our energy usage and as stated previously our energy costs have increased from $3,500 to $5,500 per month. An obvious place to start is rooftop Solar. Four quotes have been received with prices ranging from $22,750 to $35,000. All quotes consist of a 30kw system and approximately 78 panels. It was recommended not to install a larger system until we decide to install batteries. At this Proposed Rooftop Solar Installation stage batteries are not feasible due to Cost Any reasonable battery installation would not give us enough power to run our community facilities for 12 hours at night. The maintenance committee, after much discussion, decided to go with Allgreen Solutions with a Enphase Energy System. At a cost of $34,790. This system is not the cheapest however it stands above the rest. This system has inverters under each panel and eliminates the need to have a large inverter wired near the meter. Each panel can be monitored, no high voltage so no overheating, highest energy production, 25year warranty on panels and inverters, highest efficiency in all weather conditions.  The AC has approved this recommendation from the Maintenance committee and it will be put to the community in the New Year for approval via a General Meeting. More information will be provided shortly.
