This Program Management Plan (PMP) highlights how to implement a cost-effective design and installation for a photovoltaic (PV) solar electric system to be used for multiple public schools in southern California. The PV solar electric system would be owned and maintained by (CLIENT). Schools districts would loan space on their roofs for the solar system. In return, the school districts would be able to purchase low-cost and reliable energy from CLIENT. The project’s goal is to offset 80% of the electric power bill for each school in the district. A solar system at public schools will provide environmentally sound program that would increase energy efficiency, reduce energy costs, and ensure reliable, high-quality power for school facilities.
The project goal is to offset 80% of the electric bill, but because the school is typically not in operation during the summer break and winter break the size of the solar system can be reduced in size and still meet its goal of 80%. During the low usage time, summer and spring break, the solar system will produce extra energy that will produce a credit toward the total annual electrical bill according to San Diego Gas & Electric (SDG&E).
This project is a win-win project for school districts. The schools will receive cheap and reliable electrical power, the solar owners and investors will obtain good financial return, and the eco-system will have less green-house gas emission each year.
