BOLTON, MA – Paragon Communications partnered with Independence Solar to install a 1,200 kW rooftop solar array at its Bolton, MA headquarters. The 4,000-panel installation will offset about 50% of the 300,000 sq. ft. building’s annual usage.
Having relocated to their new headquarters in Bolton, MA in 2013, Paragon was looking to expand its sustainability initiatives in a big way while making a solid financial investment. Independence Solar worked with them from the initial project feasibility stage through financing and construction of the state of the art solar facility. The project broke ground in September 2014 and began producing clean energy and savings by the end of the year.
The system is one of the largest rooftop arrays in Massachusetts. Many of the system components were sourced from local suppliers, including the power inverters that were manufactured just down the road in Lawrence, MA.
