Award-Winning Solar Portfolio

In the first year of operation, a third-party vendor was responsible for managing the District’s solar energy assets. ForeFront Power recognized inefficiencies in system performance and offered to take over asset management duties directly. The company’s Asset Management division, which offers a combination of diagnostic, monitoring, and operational expertise, began directly managing the LASD portfolio in 2020 with the objective of optimizing performance and maximizing electricity savings. 

The ForeFront Power Asset Management team is happy to provide a free analysis on how you can optimize your portfolio, whether for electricity production, financial savings, and/or investor returns.

By the end of 2021, ForeFront Power Asset Management was able to drastically decrease the LASD solar portfolio’s third-party maintenance events (known as “truck rolls”) compared to the previous vendor. All project sites receive annual inspections, where all equipment is checked and tuned, resulting in only two maintenance events in 2021 — a reduction of 90% in just 2 years. The portfolio exceeded the 95% contracted performance guarantee with an average performance ratio of 100% across the portfolio.
