WESTPORT, Conn., May 25, 2007 - The Town of Westport has completed the installation of a 24-kilowatt (kW) solar PV system on the roof of the Fire Station at 515 Post Road East. Encompassing an array of PV panels on the large flat roof, as well as a smaller array that is mounted at an angle on the parapet wall and visible from street and ground level, the PV system will convert sunlight into electricity for direct use in the Fire Station building. The system will generate roughly 7% of the annual energy needs for the building and will be interconnected with the regional utility grid of CL&P. Unique to the system design, there are no roof penetrations and the system has data acquisition and performance monitoring capability, so that the public will be able to access system performance and energy production profile via the town's website.
