Nationwide Solar Power Plant Portfolios Require a Nationwide O&M Services Provider

Swinerton Renewable Energy Provides Solar Power Plant O&M Services Across North America to Maximize Owner Revenues

San Francisco, CA—September 4, 2013


As the portfolios of solar power plant owners expand in geographic scope, the task of finding O&M providers with national experience in utility-scale, multi-megawatt systems can be a daunting task. In years past, owners often had to contract with as many as 10 different regional O&M service providers. Swinerton Renewable Energy meets the demand for nationwide O&M services with true turnkey, in-house specialists and certified field technicians serving all the electric utility markets in North America.

The Technical Services Division of Swinerton Renewable Energy has a nationwide footprint, with satellite O&M offices and technicians who are OEM trained, certified, and held to safety standards that are among the most stringent in the industry. The company's O&M team prioritizes the generation of maximum revenues for plant investors and helps ensure their electric utility clients meet RPS generation requirements.

One Contact, One Call for PV Power Plant Optimization and O&M Services Across the Continent
"Our service market is wherever the sun shines in North America," explains Angelo Purpura, manager of Technical Services for Swinerton Renewable Energy. "Having a single O&M provider for an owner's many solar facility locations is not only more convenient, but also more cost effective for maintaining a fleet of plants spread out across the country." Plant owners have the added security of O&M contracts that are backed by performance guarantees and the experience of a company that has been in business for 125 years.

George Hershman, vice president of Swinerton Renewable Energy, adds, "Swinerton's strategy to maintain our industry-leading position is to invest in a team of the best-trained solar O&M technicians throughout North America. Our clients are now requesting 15-year O&M contracts for multiple plants in even the most varied and remote solar power plant locations across the country, the continent, and beyond."
