  Photovoltaic arrays convert sunlight directly into electricity through the use of interconnected solar cells, said Mark Pizzi, principal of Westport Solar Consultants.The firm, which advises people and organizations on solar power projects from start to finish, guided Greenwich Academy through its solar project over the last school year.
  
  Pizzi said he made Greenwich Academy aware of the state grant opportunity; he called the application straightforward."The grants are not rare," he said.
  ...
  The panels themselves, which cost about $250,000, Pizzi said, were installed over the course of a week.
  ...
  The solar panels "offset a portion of the energy load and expense that would otherwise be associated with or taken from the main electric service utility, in this case CL&P (Connecticut Light & Power Co.)," Pizzi said."Greenwich Academy is diminishing the expense of electricity and saving money.You can safely estimate that this system will offset roughly 25 percent of the annual electric load of this particular building."
  
  But saving money wasn't the academy's main motivation, Pizzi said.
  
  "The key driver to this project is clearly not the energy savings, or for that matter the economic profile," but rather "the environmental stewardship represented and the benefits that will be received by all Greenwich Academy students," he said.

  The Town of Westport, in order to demonstrate its commitment to environmental stewardship and to address both the constraints of the electrical grid of Southwestern Connecticut as well as the impending increase in the utility rates, is going solar at Westport Fire Headquarters, according to Mark Pizzi, a principal with Westport Solar Consultants.
  ...
  Pizzi told the Westport News that characterizing the PV system as not fiscally responsible and not cost effective is "a little bit short-sighted."
  
  "In fact," he said, "The current economic profile for this project, of which the dissenters point, is a profile that only considers the current rate of electricity and therefore, does not take into account the long-term forecasted rate increases which have trended in the past two years at greater than 20 percent."
  
  "It is my feeling, along with those who voted to approve this project, that the merits of doing solar in the Town of Westport must include the strong environmental, social and regional implications in addition to the final analysis.By doing this project, the Town of Westport is taking a firm stance and a leadership role in addressing the energy challenges, which include the shortage of oil and the constraints on our electric structures that this nation as a whole faces today."
  
  Pizzi, responding to the statement that the solar panels may not work in the winter, said that is a "completely inaccurate assessment."

  Mark Pizzi Mark Pizzi became involved with the solar arena as a business consultant. An assignment to research the marketplace for solar and to help develop a market strategy for an upstart firm allowed him to uncover the business drivers that will fuel the expansion of solar PV. He has recently developed and orchestrated projects with Kraft Foods, Sikorsky, and Pfizer, helping each of these companies to understand the business, economic, and environmental opportunities inherent in solar PV.
  
  His commitment to the growth of the solar arena was solidified with recent grant awards from the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) and the Million Solar Roofs (MSR) program, as well as the Connecticut Clean Energy Fund. Mark was a recent recipient of the 40-under-40 award from the Fairfield County Business Journal for his business vision and leadership.
  
  Mark received his MBA from Rutgers University Graduate School of Management.
