By utilizing a solar services agreement, Ameresco led the
development and installation of various solar arrays throughout the
school’s campus, including 488.43kW of rooftop solar systems and
422.82kW of carport solar systems across 118 parking spaces. The
implemented upgrades will offset about 48% of Brophy’s annual
electricity consumption and provide the school with significant
cost savings over time.
The project also realizes three important initiatives outlined
by Brophy’s Student Climate Coalition, which was a primary force in
initiating this project for the school. The initiatives include
achieving broader sustainability benefits, increasing economic
returns for the school and enhancing social equity for the school
as a whole. To support the school’s curriculum surrounding this
project, Ameresco prepared and taught three classes for Brophy
students to educate them on the development, implementation, and
post-construction aftercare process for the installations on
campus, and for solar arrays in general.
“I am grateful for the leadership of Brophy’s Student Climate
Coalition, as well as SCC moderator, alumnus and faculty member
Cooper Davis. As Jesuit-educated young men who understand the call
to care for our common home, they spent considerable time
researching the benefits and costs of this project and presenting
it to the Board of Trustees,” said Brophy President Adria Renke. “I
am also grateful for Ameresco’s partnership and willingness to work
closely with us, not just to complete the project, but to educate
our community on the process and results.”
“Our work with Brophy College Preparatory is a prime example of
how sustainability can directly impact the student leaders of
tomorrow to advance clean energy initiatives and the school’s
mission, alike,” said Bob Georgeoff, Executive Vice President,
Ameresco. “We’re thrilled to have played a role in helping Brophy
to take another step towards environmental responsibility for
future generations and continuing to elevate Ameresco’s ESG
initiatives of “doing well by doing good”.”
