Bella and Conergy Partnership Powers Kent Denver School with 205kW Solar System

The future is looking bright for students at Kent Denver School, thanks to one of the largest prep school solar energy arrays in the nation.

Colorado-based Bella Energy and international solar provider Conergy partnered to provide the school with a fully engineered and financed solar energy solution.

Building on Kent Denver's goals to deepen its students' appreciation for the world around them, the school supports sustainability projects that inspire its students to rethink how energy is produced, distributed, and consumed.  Kent Denver's head of school, Todd Horn, said, "Our students can now see how their smaller solar projects (such as a golf cart and a marine underwater camera in the Florida Keys) can be scaled up to a commercially viable level."

Conergy, Bella Energy, and RC Energy worked together with the school to make the project a reality.  Matt Kyriakos, head of Conergy US Small Commercial Projects, commented, "Conergy is extremely proud to be part of the Kent Denver School, Renewable Energy Project.  Our team model for developing medium to large scale solar projects expands the capabilities of local photovoltaic integrators, while providing greater access to renewable energy for end users exactly like Kent Denver School."

The 205kW solar energy system relies on 1,170 solar panels to provide the students with enough power to prevent over half a million pounds of CO2 from being emitted each year. As a result of the commitment of Kent Denver School and the collaboration of Bella Energy and Conergy, Kent Denver students' scholastics efforts are now, in part, solar powered.
