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.

The site, commonly called McKenzie Junction, is between the Diagonal Highway, Independence Road and Foothills Parkway. It has proved to be a challenge to developers. The site has been looked at by several developers during the past decade, having drawn interest from a big-box retailer, home developer and a private business interested in building a sports complex.

Its close proximity to high-volume traffic presents challenges to access because of the highways. It also is near the Boulder Municipal Airport.

The city of Boulder’s Planning Commission approved this project April 20, and since the Boulder City Council chose not to call the project up review, it has the green light.
