New England Resins & Pigments Corporation is a regional chemical and packaging product distributor. The company is headquartered in Woburn, Massachusetts, 10 miles north of the metropolitan Boston area.

Challenge

New England Resins’ massive facility incurs significant maintenance and operational expenses yearly.
As a result, they wanted to switch to solar, leveraging their readily-available 100,000-square-foot warehouse roof space.

Solution

Solect Energy partnered with New England Resins to install a 522 kW rooftop solar system. The system produces nearly twice the amount of electricity the client needs to power the business.

Results

A significant reduction in electricity expenses

New England Resins donates its excess electricity to a nearby nonprofit organization, the Woburn Council for Social Concern, which helps the nonprofit save substantially on its energy expenses. Additionally, New England Resins leveraged significant state and federal incentives besides receiving an income from the sale of SRECs.
