STEVINSON, Calif., April 28, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Stevinson Ranch Golf Club, the top-rated public golf course in California, and Cenergy Power, a leading solar developer, have begun construction on two solar photovoltaic (PV) systems: a 113 kilowatt (kW) ground mount and an 82 kW carport solar systems. The solar PV systems will provide clean power to Stevinson Ranch's clubhouse and lift pump.

Cenergy Power was selected to design and construct the solar system due to its engineering and project structuring expertise. Both solar system designs are optimized to generate over 300,000 kilowatt hours of clean solar power annually. This is equivalent to removing over 460,000 lbs. of CO2 from the atmosphere or planting 45 acres of pine forest annually.

These solar projects are direct evidence of Stevinson’s commitment to sustainability and eco-friendly practices. "Being one of the pioneers in our industry to utilize the sun, the world's most abundant resource, and harvesting its energy to offset our power is exciting," says George Kelley, Principal of Stevinson Golf Club. “We pride ourselves on our energy and sustainability efforts -- from our eco-friendly Greenway Golf Maintenance (most recently) and our solar power systems.”

As part of the solar arrangement, in addition to the design, engineering and installation, Cenergy Power will be providing 10 years of scheduled operations and maintenance ("O&M") work, including but not limited to, touch-free panel cleanings, preventative maintenance & repair, and overall system warranties.
