Pro-Tech Energy Collaborates with Engineering Management Services Firm Whitman

Pro-Tech Energy Solutions, LLC, a self-funded energy services company, today announced a new strategic partnership with East Brunswick, NJ-based Whitman Co., the leading environmental and engineering management services firm, allowing two environmental leaders to deliver turnkey energy efficiency and renewable energy solutions to the Mid-Atlantic region.

"As a complete turnkey company, Pro-Tech has full, direct control over the entire design and construction process, assuring the client of the highest attention to detail and quality of installation," said John Drexinger, COO, Pro-Tech Energy Solutions.  "Our partnership with Whitman expands our scope of expertise as well as our reach in the region."

With this collaboration Pro-Tech now offers the experience and dedication of a company that has nearly 25 years of experience providing practical solutions to the many complex engineering challenges that arise before and during the installation of a renewable energy or energy efficiency system. Whitman's environmental expertise complements Pro-Tech's already robust energy service portfolio that consists of:

  • Energy efficiency audits and recommendations
  • Photovoltaic (PV) system design, engineering, and installation
  • Energy monitoring selection, installation and system commissioning
  • Management and coordination of state and federal grant applications
  • Assistance in the long and short-term management and sale of Solar Renewable Energy Certificates (SREC)

"Energy efficiency and renewable energy are an area of tremendous growth," said Barry Skoultchi, P.E., CEO and President of Whitman.  "This collaboration allows us to expand our focus from the engineering aspects of renewable energy into the development of financial modeling, design systems and building, maintaining and monitoring these systems for both public and private facilities."

In February, Pro-Tech and Whitman's first joint project - the design, engineering and installation of a 1.3 megawatt (MWh) solar photovoltaic (PV) installation on a 7-acre warehouse in Cherry Hill, N.J. - was completed in only 120 days despite significant challenges.

The hurdles encountered not only included the two largest snow storms since 1998, but a warehouse whose weight capacity couldn't support the solar panel installation and any significant snow fall. To surmount these engineering challenges, the companies collaborated to build an exo-skeleton structure that could support the weight of both and alleviate weight off the roof in key areas.

"On this project Whitman's experience was essential in designing an elevated exo-skeleton structure in which the solar panels were placed to remove the weight off the roof," said Drexinger. "We are pleased with the results and look forward to working alongside Whitman to leverage their expertise on upcoming projects."
