Heinzen Manufacturing International Creates Savings with Vista Solar's 269kW Clean Energy Solution

SANTA CLARA, Calif., March 7, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Vista Solar, a leading California commercial solar solution provider, recently completed a 269-kilowatt (kW) solar installation for Heinzen Manufacturing International (HMI). Located in Gilroy, California, HMI specializes in the design, production, and installation of food processing equipment. By investing in Vista Solar's 269kW solar solution, HMI is now offsetting 75.2% of the company's energy bill, an annual savings of $106,826 and an estimated $4.1 million over the next 25 years.

Heinzen Manufacturing joins the growing California solar movement of business owners utilizing clean solar energy to reduce energy expenses. Inspired by a neighboring Vista Solar installation, David Zamzow, Vice President of HMI, decided to explore the benefits of adopting solar. After reviewing Vista Solar's unique benefits such as price assurance, performance guarantee, and 10-year maintenance & monitoring, it was clear to HMI that Vista Solar was the best solar energy provider to partner with.
 
Heinzen's CEO Rudi Groppe, who is also a board member of the United Fresh Organization, stated "the entire experience with Vista Solar has been pleasant and productive."
