Project Navigator, Ltd. (PNL) Has Been Awarded A Contract For The Development Of A Solar PV Facility

Online, October 11, 2011 (Newswire.com) - Project Navigator, Ltd. (PNL), via its solar power projects development group, PVNavigator, LLC (PVN), has been awarded a contract by the Township of Gloucester, New Jersey for the Lease and Development of a Solar Photovoltaic (PV) facility at the Owens Corning Landfill located at 300 Somerdale Road. The facility is planned to be sized at 3.1MW. Power is expected to be sold to the local utility grid with some of the power being directly sold to the adjacent Chews Elementary School via a Power Purchase Agreement. Once constructed, the solar facility will be one of the largest solar on landfill projects within the state of New Jersey with the largest one presently being a similar PVNavigator solar power development at the Southern Ocean Landfill in Ocean Township, NJ.

PNL has decades of experience in the reuse of closed landfills. These capabilities have been integrated with PNL's solar power expertise, under PVNavigator, to negotiate, engineer, permit, finance and construct utility-scale, landfill-located, distributed solar power projects nationwide.

Ian Webster, Sc. D., president of PNL, commented, "This project moves the State of New Jersey and Governor Christies' new energy plan one step closer to the goal of developing renewable, solar energy solutions on brownfields and urban-located closed landfills that are otherwise deemed as unusable land." PVN, and the developer, will manage all phases of the Owens Corning Landfill PV solar project including design, permitting, financing and implementation.

The Owens Corning landfill PV solar project will deliver a local, green source of power to the community, while preserving land resources. With the "site control" option agreement in place, PNL will now commence work on three fronts; namely, an interconnect application, NJDEP compliance and power marketing.
