Nexamp and Nextility complete rooftop solar project in Waltham - Schernecker Property Services to offset half of its energy needs with solar

Waltham, MA Nexamp, a leading provider of solar energy solutions, and Nextility, a provider of power, gas, and solar energy solutions for commercial customers, have completed an 88 kW rooftop solar system at Schernecker Property Services’ (SPS) headquarters. The project was designed and built by Nexamp and financed by Nextility, who will own and operate the project.

“SPS is committed adding value for the properties and clients with whom we work,” said Fred Schernecker, CEO of SPS.  “We are pleased with Nexamp’s installation process.  With the advancements the solar industry has made, we anticipate strong performance at this location.  Positive results should lead to wider adoption of solar by our clients on their properties.”

Under Nextility’s 15-year power purchase agreement (PPA), SPS will receive a 35% discount off of the utility rate for the energy produced by the 270 panel solar array. SPS expects to save well over $100,000 in electricity costs over the life of the agreement.

“We’re pleased to be able to offer significant savings through solar without requiring any upfront investment or behavior change,” said Nextility CEO Zach Axelrod. “This was our first PV project in Massachusetts’ competitive solar market, and Nexamp’s expertise was invaluable.”
