5 <br /> ORANGE COUNTY <br /> NORTH CAROLINA <br /> Federal incentives may be available up to 30% of the cost of a purchased PV array. Legislation is <br /> pending. The 30% credit has not been included in the financial calculation. If realized, the <br /> savings will be used exclusively to fund the three proposed PV arrays with any rollover applied <br /> to future PV arrays. <br /> CHCCS would like to move quickly on solar installation to take advantage of these incentives. <br /> A unique opportunity exists to explore a joint RFP with Orange County schools to combine the <br /> previous award of$150,000 from the FY 2019-20 grant cycle that was awarded to both Orange <br /> County Schools and Chapel Hill Carrboro City Schools for solar, thereby increasing their solar <br /> purchasing capacity and coordination. <br /> As a trusted resource with over 100 years of experience, CHCCS is poised and ready to educate <br /> and inform students and members of the community about the benefits of solar. CHCCS plans to <br /> offer a variety of educational opportunities in different formats to the community related to the <br /> fundamentals of energy,understanding energy bills, fundamentals of solar PV design, renewable <br /> energy, and site considerations. <br />
