Developer of low-cost, clean energy systems, Mass Megawatts, announced that the company is expanding its reach to potential customers through actions in several areas. In addition to opening a sales office in a high-growth, high-tech location near central Massachusetts in December last year, these measures include improvements in customer acquisition, project financing and energy efficiency improvements.

To help customers run solar projects smoothly, Mass Megawatts has formed a partnership to finance and install projects in 19 states. Under the new program, Mass Megawatts can streamline the process of providing the customer with a customized quote and best plan, and provide up to 100% financing for the project.

The company also announced a 20 percent improvement in solar performance on top of the previously announced 37 percent increase with an innovative redesign of it is patent pending Mass Megawatt Solar Tracking System (STS) to maximize backside and overall performance of bifacial solar panels. The solar trackers also employ a low-cost method aided by the “yaw sideways” technique, which provides a slip feature to protect against strong winds and hurricane-related weather. They can resume operations once production conditions have recovered, helping to avoid costs associated with a traditional high wind event protection system.

In addition, Mass Megawatts has also enhanced its patent-pending solar tracking technology with a proprietary mechanical innovation to adjust the panels based on the position of the sunproviding an additional 7% improvement in energy production.

Mass Megawatts has interests in a number of solar projects in central Massachusetts. With its patent-pending trackers, the company estimates that these projects can pay for themselves in 4 to 6.5 years, depending on whether bonus depreciation benefits are factored into the payback.

According to reports, the solar tracker market will grow from about $2 million to more than $3 billion by 2025. Mass Megawatts believes it is well positioned with its patent-pending solar tracking systems to expand production and support its revenue goals over the long term.
