23 May: Tyler Technologies, an information management solutions firm has installed a solar-plus-storage system at its headquarters in Plano, Texas.

W Energies Solar One is installing solar panels backed with batteries at the HQ in order to make Tyler more environmentally astute while achieving energy cost savings. With these changes, Tyler becomes the first company in North Texas to have a commercial solar-storage project.

“This project is an exciting addition to our other environmental initiatives at Tyler, and we’re proud to be among other energy-conscious companies in North Texas who are making our backyard more environmentally friendly,” said Lynn Moore Jr., president of Tyler Technologies. “We look forward to seeing the benefits our Plano campus will experience using solar panels, and we may even consider replicating this initiative at other Tyler office locations, such as in Lubbock, in the future.”

More community solar in Massachusetts

23 May: BlueWave Solar, MS Solar Solutions and the National Bank of Arizona have completed a 1.37MW community solar project on Lake Street in Plympton, Massachusetts.

The project spans almost 1.2 hectares and is now available for subscribers to produce clean energy and generate long-term electricity savings under BlueWave’s ‘Community Solar Share’ programme. So far, 70 businesses and residences have signed up to the project.

Project off-taker Oak Bluffs Water District has contracted for around 400kW of solar and is expected to save around US$12,500 annually.

23 May: Ghana’s Regional Maritime University (RMU) has selected German solar firm Redavia to build a solar system at its campus to reduce dependency on expensive diesel generators.

This deal marks Redavia’s first step into a West African solar market, with RMU achieving significant energy cost and consumption reductions.

The seven-year contract consists of five containers to be manufactured and commissioned by Redavia within the next few months. Each container will generate 87kWp of clean electricity and comes as a pre-configured, pre-assembled and fully operational solar farm in an easy to deploy ground-mounted, tent-shaped structure.

Once expanded with onsite energy storage, the solar farm will help reduce power shortages that disrupt the University on a regular basis. In addition, the solar system will allow for net metering with excess power fed back into the national grid.

RMU is also establishing a new Renewable Energy Institute in collaboration with Redavia.
