ROCHESTER, N.Y., Aug. 12, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Arista Power,
Inc. ("Arista Power" or the "Company") (OTCBB: ASPW) has received
an order valued at $574,000 for a
166kW solar photovoltaic (PV) array from Stan's Harley-Davidson
dealership in Batavia, New
York.
Stan's Harley-Davidson is a second generation retail and service
dealership occupying a 28,000 square foot facility on the north
side of Batavia, New York.
The solar system will be comprised of more than 600
American-made solar panels mounted on the storefront's roof.
The 166kW system will be tied into the building's existing
electrical service and will be interconnected to National Grid's
transmission lines.
The solar photovoltaic array is projected to generate 100% of
Stan's current annual consumption of electricity and will provide a
payback of just over seven years after taking in account
New York State and Federal
incentives. Arista Power expects to install the solar PV
array in the first half of the fourth quarter of 2013.
Darryl Horzempa, President and
Owner of Stan's Harley-Davidson, said "Now is the time for us to
invest into the solar market, especially with all of the tax
credits and incentives available for New
York businesses. We have focused on reducing our power
consumption to a point where this 166kW solar PV system will
generate all of our electricity needed on a yearly basis."
Mr. Horzempa continued, "Making this investment in solar will fix
our energy costs moving forward, and help better plan for future
generations in our family business. This solar PV array is
one of the centerpieces of our sustainability initiative, along
with our environmental outlook and recycling programs."
"This order from Stan's Harley-Davidson demonstrates the value
we can provide to commercial customers by tailoring our suite of
renewal energy solutions to meet the specific needs of each
customer based on their individual energy usage profiles," said
Mark Matthews, President of Arista
Power. "From stand-alone solar energy systems to
the integration of solar and/or wind energy with our patent-pending
Power on Demand peak demand shaving system, we believe that
our capabilities to create and implement a wide range of
customer-specific renewable-based energy saving solutions for
residential, commercial and military applications differentiates
Arista Power and will lead to more successes going forward."
