What Our Clients Say
“The GZA team was a critical component of our success as they led permitting, environmental compliance, and remediation and oversaw construction. The project adds to our nearly 80 megawatts of installed solar capacity across Rhode Island, and we are pleased that it proved to be beneficial for the landowner, the City of East Providence, The East Providence Waterfront Commission, RIPTA, and all involved stakeholders.”
“BlueWave has partnered with GZA on multiple solar projects in Maine and they approached each one with exactly the type of friendly professionalism that you look for in a group that is going to represent your organization publicly. Their responsiveness makes communication a breeze and their work is thorough, which is of particular importance when there are natural resource concerns, an area at which GZA excels. They keep tasks on track by being highly organized and are transparent, which is essential for setting accurate expectations. GZA has helped permit some challenging projects, pulling out all the stops when necessary, and they continue to be a trusted partner for BlueWave.”
