Montclair is one step closer to being able to create solar energy at its schools.
The school district has awarded a solar panel contract to two companies, Eznergy, based in Toms River, and Greenskies Renewable Energy, based in North Haven, Conn.
The Board of Education approved the awarding of the contract to those two companies on Dec. 2.
The solar panel project is part of the district’s Energy Savings Improvement Program (ESIP), an $11 million series of projects intended to help the schools save money on energy bills in the lon
g run.
The contract is known as a lease-purchase agreement. The district will host the solar panels and infrastructure at its buildings, and buy solar power from the two vendors at a lower rate than it now pays for most of its energy. But the panels will be owned, operated and maintained by Greenskies, which will be responsible for financing construction; Eznergy will be doing the construction.
