Project Description

Solar energy provider, SolarVision, LLC, is making it possible for schools, municipalities and businesses to take advantage of the economic and environmental benefits of solar power. The company, which organized in 2009 and is led by long-time renewable energy leader, Gregory Kuss and finance executive Don Saul, laid the foundation early on to succeed at bringing affordable solar projects to the state of Ohio. With a 300 solar panel/65 kilowatt array project already completed at Evening Street Elementary School in Worthington, OH earlier this year and the remaining four solar installations scheduled for completion within October of this year, SolarVision worked with finance partners, Stonehenge Structured Finance, Finance Fund and First Merit Bank to complete the multi-faceted $5.6 million deal.
