POWERHOME to add rooftop solar to 5 municipal buildings in Harrison, Michigan

• POWERHOME SOLAR was chosen to install 659.4 kW of solar on 5 municipal buildings throughout the City of Harrison, Michigan. Projects will be set up at City Hall, the Fire Hall, water tower, pump residence and wastewater therapy center. These places were chosen since they're the largest consumers of power.

The portfolio is a multiphase project that began earlier this year and is set up to be finished in the coming months. The panels will offset around 97% of the electrical power costs of the centers.

Tracey Connelly, the mayor and clerk for the City of Harrison, said her community prides itself on forward-thinking as well as is bent on making use of taxpayer cash sensibly.

" The City of Harrison spends over $130,000 annually from the budget simply in these places," Connelly said. "Solar energy is among the most prominent resources of renewable energy. The financial savings plus the environment-friendly advantages of solar energy is why the City of Harrison chose to move in the direction of this clean energy production."
