NYSERDA allocated a total of $30 million in grant money to eligible solar contractors through a highly competitive grant process. Martifer Solar USA, Inc. was selected on the basis of its proven competence and professional qualifications, as well as its ability to deliver a high value and cost-effective use of State funding.

The event will include comments by Cerritos Mayor Carol K. Chen and Congresswoman Linda Sánchez. The City Council will unveil a dedication plaque and Mayor Chen will symbolically activate the new systems with a ceremonial switch.

For more information about the event, call the City’s Community Participation Division at (562) 865-8101.

Solar panels generating approximately 150,000 kilowatt hours per year were installed in October 2010 on top of one of the water reservoirs at the Cerritos Corporate Yard. The system was installed by Martifer Solar and consists of 748 Unisolar thin film photovoltaic solar modules. The $517,500 project was funded by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, which sponsored the Energy Efficiency and Conservation Block Grant Program.

An additional set of high capacity solar panels was installed in the fall of 2011 on top of the second water reservoir at the Cerritos Corporate Yard. The system was installed by SunWize Technologies, Inc. and consists of 588 solar modules. The $725,959 project was funded by a $380,600 grant from the Department of Energy and the balance was paid by the City of Cerritos.

The total production of solar energy from the two photovoltaic systems at the Corporate Yard is approximately 350,000 kilowatt hours annually. The two projects provide all the energy required to power the main building as well as a substantial portion of the power used to operate an adjacent water well. The second photovoltaic project also included the rehabilitation of the Corporate Yard facility’s original solar water-heating system.
