Greenscape Announces Solar and Wind Suppliers for Denver Green Parking Project

Greenscape Capital Group Inc. is pleased to announce that Green Park Denver LLC has selected solar and wind energy suppliers for its Denver parking facility. The facility design utilizes solar, wind and geothermal energy sources amongst other operational green features.

Wind

Eight vertical access wind turbines, manufactured by Mariah Power, are being installed around the main entrance drive. These turbines are designed to operate in urban settings. At 30 feet tall and 4 feet wide, the Windspire wind turbine has a sleek propeller-free design and operates in an ultra-quiet manner. The wind turbines generate power when the wind blows against its vertical airfoils, causing it to spin. The power is then converted into AC electricity and is immediately available to power items that require electricity at the GP facility. The installation is being completed by Vibrant Solar, based out of Denver, Colorado.

Solar

Six pole mounted solar arrays totaling are being installed at the GP parking facility by Piper Electric, based out of Arvada, Colorado. The solar panels being utilized are Evergreen solar panels. The panels have the industry's lowest voltage per watt rating and utilize UL4703 certified cables. Evergreen has the smallest carbon footprint of any manufacturer in the industry, and ship all products with 100% cardboard-free packaging, minimizing job site waste and disposal costs. The product comes with a 25 year power warranty.
