Electrical Project Scope

Broadway’s complete turnkey design and installation of 15kW Solar (PV) System on the roof of the Rehoboth Senior Center in Rehoboth, MA. The design approach was driven by a strategy to maximize the power output of the solar photovoltaic system within budget parameters, delivering an architecturally pleasing, symmetrical and uniform layout of the solar array.

The projected electricity generartion from this system design is 17,976kwh/year, which represents an energy value of $2696.40 per year based on a rate of 15 cents per kilowatt hour.

The design features and installation included:

  1. Unirac SolarMount Rail Mounting System – A versatile extruded aluminum racking system complete with rails, mounting clips and clamps, L feet, standoffs, and stainless steel fasteners.
  2. Solectria PVI 5000/5300 Inverters – The Solectria PVI 5000 inverters are efficient, reliable, lightweight and designed for maximum power harvesting. They are manufactured with integrated circuit string combiners, AC/DC disconnects and an LCD display.
  3. Sharp 230W Solar Panels – The solar panels are constructed with sturdy anodized, welded alumninum frames and deliver a high efficiency rating and high energy output per watt.
  4. Solectria Solrenview DAS – The system data integrates through a web-based monitoring system. Solrenview provides a comprehensive array of data collection, inverter monitoring, power metering, communications networking and real-time production statistics.
