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 event takes place from 7:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. on Feb. 28 at The Wild Game, 2251 Ken Pratt Blvd. in Longmont. Those interested in attending can register online. The Economic Development Impact Awards Luncheon will follow.
