Hi Matt,

My name is Chris Janin, I am the executive director for Production Solar a Denver based global energy developer. I am a Professor at Ecotech Institute and teach Solar PV Advanced Design as well as Solar PV Installation & Repair.

There is a lot of opportunity in sustainable development. Start by educating yourself on the incentives in the area. www.dsireusa.org, obviously the 30% ITC, but there could be some local incentives. Understand where the power will go from interconnection and other financial dynamics.

Financing is key, you need to make sure the project is feasible (will make more money than it costs over the Projects Life-cycle), understand where the nearest substation is and what capacity is there for Transmission and Distribution of the produced energy. Good luck in your endeavors.

Reach out if you want to chat or send me an email. Please text me first because I do not answer numbers I do not know. xxx.xxx.xxxx

Best Regards,

Chris Janin
