Torcon, Inc. Chosen by Monmouth University to Develop Solar PV Projects
West Long Branch, New Jersey- Monmouth University has entered into a Power
Purchase Agreement with Torcon Energy Services (TES) to develop rooftop solar
photovoltaic (PV) systems on seven buildings located on the school's West Long Branch
campus.
TES will install more than 3,000 240-watt multicrystalline solar PV modules, which are
expected to produce over 680,000 kWh of power annually. TES will provide turnkey
design, installation, operation and maintenance of the solar PV systems. It is anticipated
that once engineering is completed, construction of the PV systems will begin in the first
quarter of 2012.
The TES solar PV development team includes NJ-based firms Birdsall Services Group,
who will provide structural and electrical engineering, and Pro-Tech Energy Solutions,
who will procure and install the PV system.
