The contract requires RMT to perform engineering, procurement, and construction of the civil infrastructure, including installation of 71,000 PV solar modules, racking system, DC and AC electrical systems, SCADA system, and meteorological system.
While, Panda Power Funds is responsible for managing development, engineering and construction of the solar project, Con Edison Development will be controlling the operation, maintenance, energy management and financing of the solar facility.
Atlantic City Electric will be the host utility for the project, which has already begun construction and is expected to commence commercial operation next spring, creating over 100 construction jobs and generating enough energy to power over 5,100 homes.
Con Edison Development senior vice president and chief operating officer Robert Mennella said that the Pilesgrove solar facility will help boost America’s energy independence and provide long-term environmental benefits.
“We tapped RMT for this project because they have a track record of designing and constructing high quality renewable energy facilities,” Mennella said.
