SolarCraft Completes Solar Power System at Hospice by the Bay in Marin - Larkspur Hospice Turns Sunshine Into Savings

Novato and Sonoma based SolarCraft, a leading North Bay solar installer for over 35 years, recently completed the installation of a 158 kW DC solar system at Hospice by the Bay in Larkspur, CA. The solar panels were installed as a way to save energy and protect the environment; reducing HBTB’s operating costs by thousands every month and lowering their carbon footprint.

SolarCraft Completes Solar Power System at Hospice by the Bay in Marin - Larkspur Hospice Turns Sunshine Into Savings
Novato, CA, February 28, 2019 --(PR.com)-- The solar power system is roof mounted for maximum southern sun exposure and consists of 433 high-efficiency solar panels, producing 217,015 kWh annually. Excess power generated during the day is banked by PG&E for credit towards future use, also reducing the strain on the local power grid.

SolarCraft presents very favorable financing options, which allow non-profits to benefit from federal incentives. With a lease or PPA, the provider is able to monetize federal incentives and passes the benefits through to non-profits via lower lease payments, or as in a PPA, lower contracted utility rates. Additionally, leases and PPAs are designed to minimize or eliminate initial up-front costs, making solar immediately affordable for non-profits that want to be green.

During the life of the system, nearly 7.5 million pounds of carbon dioxide generated by Hospice by the Bay’s operations will be eliminated. This impact is equivalent to removing air pollution produced by over 9 million miles of driving over 25 years or the pollutants removed by 176 acres of trees in one year.
