  • sPower’s projects utilize photovoltaic (PV)

panel technology

  • Pole-mounted panels require less grading

and minimize long-term impacts to project sites

  • Panels will be approximately 5 – 7 feet in

height

  • Project will have a minimum 50’ setback

from property line

  • Project will be fenced and monitored 24

hours a day and 7 days a week
