# HOST A SOLAR ARRAY ON YOUR PROPERTY

###### Breakaway Renewables helps landowners, farms, businesses, municipalities, and nonprofits put their assets to work with solar development opportunities.

Norwich Technologies, our parent company, is a leading solar development and EPC company delivering clean energy to the region. With solar arrays sited across the Northeast, we’ve saved our customers over $50,000 dollars on energy costs and avoided almost 50,000 metric tons of CO2 emissions. We are looking for additional sites to further the benefits of renewable energy in the communities we serve.

## If you are a landowner, your property can bring you additional benefits by hosting solar.

![NT Clean Energy Icons-payment](https://norwichsolar.com/hubfs/NT%20Clean%20Energy%20Icons-payment.png)

###### Steady, reliable stream of income over the next 25 years

![NT Clean Energy Icons-sustainability](https://norwichsolar.com/hubfs/NT%20Clean%20Energy%20Icons-sustainability.png)

###### Protect the planet by helping to reduce greenhouse gas emissions

![NT Clean Energy Icons-renewable-energy](https://norwichsolar.com/hubfs/NT%20Clean%20Energy%20Icons-renewable-energy.png)

###### Promote a clean, renewable energy source that strengthens the local economy

![NT Clean Energy Icons-CO2-reduction](https://norwichsolar.com/hubfs/NT%20Clean%20Energy%20Icons-CO2-reduction.png)

###### Decrease our dependence on fossil fuels that pollute the air

### **Turn your land into an additional income source**

If you own a minimum of 10 acres located near three-phase distribution power line, your property may be eligible to support the renewable energy objectives of our communities and bring you additional income. Norwich Solar offers 25-year+ lease agreements to host a solar array. If you believe your land is viable for a solar power installation, reach out to [Geoff Martin,](mailto:martin@norwichsolar.com) Development Project Manager.

### How a Solar Project Affects the Landscape

Solar projects make great neighbors because they have no moving parts, create no pollution, and basically just sit there for 25 years, except for our routine maintenance and mowing around the panels. Solar projects are often fenced with access only for authorized maintenance personnel. In some instances, there are opportunities for dual uses, such as livestock grazing, agriculture and pollinator habitat. At the end of the contract we decommission, dismantle and remove the system, returning the land to its original condition.

![How a Solar Project Affects the Landscape](https://norwichsolar.com/hubfs/NorwichSolar_July2023/Images/DSC2743-2048x1367.jpg "How a Solar Project Affects the Landscape")

### How We Decide If a Property is Suitable

We perform a site development analysis with a thorough evaluation involving the utility and state regulatory agencies to determine whether your commercial roof or land qualifies as a solar site … at no cost to you.

Land should have good solar orientation, be relatively level, free of ecologically sensitive areas, and access to 3-phase power. Sites need not be pristine; brownfields, landfills, gravel pits, quarries, parking lots, former industrial sites, and previously occupied properties are ideal and given often preferential treatment for permitting.

### Lease Rates

Rates vary depending on the size of the project, nature of the property, proximity to power lines, ease of access to the site, and solar orientation. After performing an initial feasibility study, we present a formal solar lease agreement to the property owner, typically either with a large upfront payment or smaller annual payments over 25 years. The good news is that solar hosts have NO out of pocket expenses or ongoing costs from the array.
