Why solar?

The mission of the Boys & Girls Club of Southeast Georgia, or BGCSEGA, is to enable young people to reach their full potential as productive and responsible citizens. Efficient budget management allows the leadership team to better fulfill its mission.  

“I’m a firm believer in the power of solar energy. For the Boys & Girls Club of Southeast Georgia, this project means 25 years of savings,” explains Brian Dolan, the organization's CPO.

“These savings can be reinvested into the community for decades to come. Even long after I’ve retired, the lasting impact of this initiative will continue to benefit future generations, creating opportunities and strengthening the community.”

“We were thrilled to collaborate with ţţ淨r and Zero Grid Power on our solar initiative,” Dolan continues. “The resulting savings at these three sites will enable us to reinvest thousands of dollars annually back into the community. Thanks to ţţ淨r products, the Club can now dedicate more resources to academic programming instead of fundraising for utility costs. We're also excited to educate our youth about the importance of sustainable energy and the many benefits of solar power.”

Why ţţ淨r?

For solar installers, time is money, so an efficient installation process and ongoing maintenance are major considerations when choosing equipment.

Asked about the ţţ淨r commercial solution, Michael Theil, President and CEO of Zero Grid Power, notes that “the system streamlined the installation process, reducing time and cost compared to traditional string inverters, and the most robust monitoring capabilities make ongoing maintenance easy. Overall, ţţ淨r provided a reliable, future-proof solution for this customer’s needs.”
