PV Ground Mount / Winchester, MA

PV Ground Mount

“I am very grateful to have the opportunity to produce about 50% of the electricity that I consume from a renewable energy source and thus in a small but significant way improve the health of our mother earth!”

Peter Tiffany, Homeowner

The Tiffanys joined the renewable energy movement by installing a ground mounted array at their home in Massachusetts. The 4.4 kW system that Alteris™ Renewables installed was located in an area that maximized sun exposure, yet blended into the landscape of their home. They proudly produce approximately 5,200 kWh of electricity per year from their system.
