Projects

San Mateo UHSD solar PV

Working on a tight schedule to coordinate with other improvements currently being implemented by the District, NV5 evaluated the district’s historical energy use, advised the district on cost-saving options, and managed an efficiency program. NV5 worked with the District’s construction manager and architect to develop a multiphase PV program at the District’s 6 campuses. Work on the solar PV project has included managing two RFP processes, production and financial modeling, design review, and commissioning oversight. NV5 also provided construction support for Phase 2 of the PV program and helped the District explore solar thermal to offset pool heating loads.
