Beachview Villa provides residents with the incredible Huntington Beach lifestyle. But the sunny days that are so desirable to outdoor activities lead to the need for heavy air conditioning use. Keeping with the push toward sustainable energy use for all California residents and businesses, the Beachview Villa apartment complex made the choice to provide renewable energy, produced on-site, to residents.
HES Solar designed a 233-panel system that provides 149,000 kWh annually to power the Southern California multi-family residence that sits just a few miles from the beach. HES Solar maximized the rooftop area available. The system delivers a 37% energy offset, impressive for a three-story apartment building.
As more customers place a higher value on direct (non-transmitted) renewable energy use, the Beachview Villa becomes a more attractive rental to future residents. Current residents gain the satisfaction and freedom of knowing their air conditioner use comes without carbon emissions.
Financially, the commercial rooftop solar array delivers well over half a million dollars in energy bill savings over the next 25 years. Upfront costs were minimized through the various federal and state incentives. HES Solar assisted the facility in receiving all of these available incentives, resulting in a payback period of under nine years for the multi-family solar system in Orange County, California.
