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 group has nine cafes and restaurants, including two locations on the University of Colorado-Boulder campus, one at the Jenny Smoly Caruthers Biotechnology Building and another at the Leeds School of Business building.
In 2012, the Baron family sold its granola and gluten-free businesses, as well as its company name, Udi’s Foods, to Boulder Brands. The deal required that Udi’s change its name by July of this year.

The Denver-based family-owned business established in 1994 came up with the new names through a contest.

“Initially we were in search of one company name,´ said Etai Baron, chief executive of the Baron Group. “When we received positive feedback about not just one, but three possible company names, we were inspired to zig when we originally planned to zag. We’ve created sub-brands for each different business using all three names.”

Each person whose entry was selected will receive a party for 20, worth up to $1,000.
