Hello all- I am writing on behalf of a group of parents at Hartsbrook Waldorf School in Hadley MA who are seeking an investor to help finance a Solar Energy project we are undertaking at our school. Our project team is planning to build approximately 50KW PV system on the school grounds. Our financing strategy, leverages Mass Tech Collaborative grant money, money from private foundations and individual donors, in kind donations and a private investor who purchases the PV system with a 10 year lease/buy-back arrangement from the school. We are seeking an investor who is community minded, forward thinking who would put up a portion of the money necessary to design, purchase and install the PV system. (between $150K-250K) The investment terms would be structured to take advantage of Federal energy tax credits and favorable depreciation rates to generate an 8 per cent annual ROI over a 10 year buyback period. We anticipate the overalll project costs between $400K and $500K to complete. We are very excited by the innovative nature of this partnership between a non profit educational institution and commercial firm which will serve the advancement of renewable energy and sustainability in the Valley in a highly visible way. Our school has a website that you may visit: hartsbrook.org. I can be reached on my cellphone which is 413-530-3223.
