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.

Joe Mitchell, UQM’s president and chief executive, called it a “solid second quarter,” pointing to higher sales of the company’s PP220 and fuel-cell compressor systems.

“We continue to see good traction on our China partnership initiatives and are optimistic about the future given the interest and momentum we are seeing in the business.”
