Menasha installation to be Fox Valley’s largest solar system
From an article by Michael King in the Appleton Post-Crescent:
TOWN OF MENASHA — George Dearborn believes the town will become a renewable energy leader by example with the installation of a large solar system next spring.
Dearborn, the town’s community development director, said last week’s action by the Town Board to award a $240,453 contract to Energize LLC, Winneconne, will give the town three large solar installations on the west side.
“We’re anxious to make this happen,” Dearborn said.
Energize owner Jim Funk said the 25.2-kilowatt system would be the largest in the Fox Cities and one of the largest solar installations north of Milwaukee.
Earlier this year, two town businesses, Neuroscience Group of Northeast Wisconsin and SCA Tissue, installed large solar energy systems on their rooftops.
