Solar Operations and Maintenance for Commercial Properties

One key qualification to consider when selecting a solar partner to install your system is whether they have an Operations and Maintenance (O&M) or service department. Since solar is a long-term asset with an expected lifecycle of 30 plus years, ongoing O&M should be considered up front. A trusted O&M partner will maximize your system’s energy output and therefor the return on your investment.

Boulder-based Coburn Partners designed the building that is being built by Burke Builders LLC, also based in Boulder.

Construction is expected to be completed in summer 2017, and students are expected to move in for the 2017 fall semester.

“Coburn Partners has put together an innovative design that will help transform the Arapahoe corridor and serve Naropa and our community well,” said Catherine Bean, Element Properties’ director of development.

Being built on land that once was occupied by a Dairy Queen, the 7,200-square-foot building will include 18 rooms — eight single-bed and 10 two-bed rooms — a community kitchen and gathering space on the ground floor, a second-story meditation room and a third-story rooftop deck.
