- Assured Solar Energy technicians, from left, Rob Taisey, Jesse Freebury-Roy and Gifford Jenkins-Davis, install SolarWorld modules on the roof of 28 Bates St. in Lewiston on Tuesday morning. The modules are the latest technology in solar panels, utilizing SolarEdge DC power optimizers, which takes one module out of the circuit if that module is shaded. “This means that each panel, or module, is putting out the maximum that it can,” Taisey said. Building owner Pete Rubins has been working to convert the circa 1848 building to more sustainable energy resources for the past 30 years. “It’s going to be one of the major sources of power in the coming decades,” said Rubins, who also works for Assured Solar Energy. “I don’t want to just talk the talk, but walk the walk.”
