Project Examples

Global NES, Inc. is committed to providing today's most comprehensive, yet affordable, New Energy Solutions to governments, educational institutions, municipalities and commercial/industrial facilities. We deliver innovative solutions that are specific for each client and right for the environment. Check out some of our recent projects:

5 MW Solar Farm
The goal of this 40 acre ground mounted solar photovoltaic electric power generation station is to offset not only the energy needs for the location but will also feed a significant amount of energy back into the electrical grid; this additional power will be sold to local utilities generating supplementary income. The cost of the renewable energy system will be reduced and this income maximized by considering energy reduction for the facilities already present on the property. The project will be funded via investors in the project as well as federal, state and local incentives.
2.34MW Solar System
Project is located at a 26,000 member mega-church on a 240 acre campus which includes several buildings. The client was interested in offsetting the entire amount of electricity they use during a calendar year with the energy provided by a renewable energy system. A comprehensive project design combining energy reduction and renewable energy was employed. This process generated a savings of $6.3 MM on the renewable energy system. Energy analysis and reduction measures resulted in an annual decrease in electricity consumption by 31.3%. In cooperation with the client an optimum location on campus was selected for installation of a 2.34 MW ground mounted solar photovoltaic electric power generation station. This system is designed to offset the remaining 69% of annual energy consumption for the facilities. Project funding is benefited by federal, state and local incentives.
100 kW Solar Photovoltaic & 8kW Micro-Hydro Hybrid System
This county waste water district filters, treats and releases into the river 400,000 to 500,000 gallons of water each day. The annual electric consumption of the facility is approximately 1,350 MWh. The energy solution was designed using a holistic approach including an 8 KW micro-hydro system to capitalize on the energy contained in flowing water and a 100 KW ground mounted solar photovoltaic power generation system. The micro-hydro system will produce 8 kWh of power each hour, 24 hours a day 365 days a year or 70,080 kWh annually. This, along with the PV system, will offset approximately 25% of the annual energy consumption of the plant. Additional space remains on site to expand the PV system in the future. System funding is aided by a Dept. of Natural Resources grant made available to municipalities.
2.5 MW Wind Turbine Project at a Manufacturing Facility
A 2,500 kW (with 85m tower) wind system that will provide the client with more than a 100% electrical energy offset. The system also has a unique integrated suite of controls and electronics which provides a sophisticated set of grid-friendly benefits similar to conventional power plants. These controls enable the wind turbine to meet grid codes and stay on-line supporting the grid, even during severe grid disturbances.
10 kW Office Building Grid tied Solar System
The property owners initially wanted this system to offset 100% of the building's electrical needs. With energy reduction measures now in place the facility was able to reduce consumption by 32% and sell the excess electricity generated back to the local utility company.

Over its 35-year expected life this 10 kW solar panel system will provide the equivalent CO2 reduction of planting 1,450 trees, based on typical utility pollution. It will produce 575,000 kilowatt hours of electricity, as much as would be generated by burning 583,000 lbs of coal.

Annual Carbon & Pollution Reduction:
Greenhouse Gases (CO2): 17,704 Pounds
Nitrogen Oxides (NO2): 96 Pounds
Sulfur Dioxide (SO2): 233 Pounds
Mercury (Hg2): 501 Milligrams

50 kW System Municipal Grid tied Solar System
This 50 kW solar energy system is a 5,000 square-foot photovoltaic (PV) array in close proximity to one of the town's electrical substations. The integrated array will generate about 50,000 W of energy on full sun days, enough to provide power comparable to the amount of electricity 10 homes might use on an annual basis.

In addition to energy, the solar array also generates a tradable commodity called renewable energy credits, or green tags, which represent the environmental benefits of energy generated by this non-fossil fuel source.

Annual Carbon & Pollution Reduction:
Greenhouse Gases (CO2): 309,077 Pounds
Nitrogen Oxides (NO2): 492 Pounds
Sulfur Dioxide (SO2): 1,197 Pounds
Mercury (Hg2): 2,576 Milligrams

80kW Commercial Building Grid tied Solar System
This 7,000 square foot array is a combination rooftop/ground mount project. Because of recent energy efficiencies, the building's 294 panels provide enough electrical power for the facility where it is located, as well as being distributed into an adjacent building, which was renovated to apply for LEED status.

Annual Carbon & Pollution Reduction:
Greenhouse Gases (CO2): 498,609 Pounds
Nitrogen Oxides (NO2): 794 Pounds
Sulfur Dioxide (SO2): 1,931 Pounds
Mercury (Hg2): 4,156 Milligrams

102kW System for a Manufacturing Facility
480 panels were used to provide a 100% energy offset in an expandable system for this manufacturer to accommodate growth. The system was placed on and around six buildings with each system sectional and operating independently.

During the life of the system, it is estimated that the greenhouse gas emission reductions would be the equivalent of taking 118 automobiles off America's roadways.

Annual Carbon & Pollution Reduction:
Greenhouse Gases (CO2): 600,734 Pounds
Nitrogen Oxides (NO2): 957 Pounds
Sulfur Dioxide (SO2): 2,327 Pounds

Mercury (Hg2): 5,007 Milligrams
