Goal: to provide electricity for Young’s and three related properties so that they would have no electric bill across the iconic family run business. The panels protect the roof from the shingles blowing off due to its highly exposed marine location, and lastly a battery system to provide back up power as an insurance policy so that they don’t lose business during critical summer months. The results are no more electricity bill or storm electricity insecurity.
