We are so pleased to announce that Collins Control & Electric recently passed the 104 Week (2 Year) mark for being accident free! To celebrate we all went out to breakfast at the Silver Grill Cafe (not pictured).
Here's to another 104 Weeks!

This is the new solar parking structure our crew just completed at the new Rocky Mountian Innovation Initiative (RMI 2) building on East Vine Street. The array which also serves as covered parking produces 17.9 kW of electrical energy. On average, this array creates enough energy to fully power 2.5 average size homes.

Completed in late 2009, this family wanted to make the most of their PV friendly roof. Their system consists of 33 REC Solar 215 Watt panels offsetting approx 85% of the households needs. An area was left open to be filled with Solar Hot Water panels. This family knows the strength of the sun!
This system consisted of 48 GE Energy 200 Watt panels, designed to offset more than 1/3 of this business' electrical usage. Xcel Energy and Federal Tax Incentives covered approximately 66% of the cost!
Collins Control & Electric is finishing up a unique installation, design/build project, with beetle kill lodgepole pine which were recycled from the property, treated and reassembled to create the PV array.

Bill just wrapping up a very rewarding project, a private horse complex.

We have found it challenging to integrate this photo-voltaic system into the over all design of this refurbished 1960's net zero residence. The architect and owner are pleased with the outcome.

Nice pipe work guys!
