Issue details
School PV for Schools Phase 1
The Solar PV for Schools PH1 award of contract
is to Caplor Energy Ltd.
The council will use power purchase agreements with the reciprocal
schools so that there is no upfront cost for schools for the solar
PV systems. Schools will benefit by receiving renewable electricity
at a discounted cost. The sale of the energy to the school will
repay the capital investment and surplus will reduce the
council’s own energy bills.
The solar PV installs will have a projected life span of
20-25yrs.
All schools have been subject to roof condition surveys - a number
of schools are NOT suitable for install. Five schools will go
forward for install (two of which will be post capital works in FY
22/23)
