Ameresco was chosen by the Department of Veterans Affairs to build a renewable energy project at the Veterans Administration Medical Center (VAMC) in Salt Lake City, Utah. Ameresco will design and build the solar PV system, which holds a valued cost of over US$6.6 million. The design phase will start right away, with construction slated to begin early next year with completion anticipated within a 10-month time frame.

The VAMC project will have both rooftop and ground-mounted solar arrays installed across seven VAMC campus sites. The systems will range between 35KW to 100KW, with the ground-mounted system's installed capactiy predicted to be 550KW, once its design is completed and approved.
