Overview
CI Renew partnered with the North Jersey Media Group to install a 4.96 MW solar installation in Rockaway Township, New Jersey. A combination of net-metered rooftop, canopy, and fixed ground arrays achieved commercial operations in 2013. The project generates approximately 1,318 MWh of electricity annually, directly offsetting its electricity needs with renewable power.
Built on and adjacent to a continuously operating facility with both manufacturing and office tenants, the system's design required careful planning to avoid disruption to daily operations. Subsurface rock conditions added additional complexity, necessitating the use of ground screws rather than traditional foundation methods for installation of the ground mount array on 30 acres of land.
“North Jersey Media Group is pleased and proud to have served as the host and electric off-taker of this solar project. This use of clean energy helps us continue our environmental stewardship as well as reduce costs. [CI Renew] is a wonderful partner and I strongly recommend them to those considering similar projects.”
