Under Nextility’s 15-year power purchase agreement (PPA), SPS will receive a 35% discount off of the utility rate for the energy produced by the 270 panel solar array. SPS expects to save well over $100,000 in electricity costs over the life of the agreement.
“We’re pleased to be able to offer significant savings through solar without requiring any upfront investment or behavior change,” said Nextility CEO Zach Axelrod. “This was our first PV project in Massachusetts’ competitive solar market, and Nexamp’s expertise was invaluable.”
For Nexamp, this project is the latest in their Massachusetts portfolio of over 225 installations, ranging from small commercial rooftops to utility scale ground-mounted arrays. “Our full solar service offerings and deep local expertise enable us to work with partners at any stage of a solar project,” said Zaid Ashai, CEO of Nexamp. “We are always excited to work with innovative partners like Nextility, who advance the development of better energy solutions for Massachusetts ratepayers.”
