Sol Systems, a renewable energy leader, has announced a sustainable initiative in collaboration with Columbia University, positioning the university as the anchor tenant for a community solar carport and battery storage project. The Croton-Harmon project, a 4 MW PV system paired with 3.75 MW / 15 MWh battery storage, is slated for launch in Q2 2024 at the Metro-North train station parking lot in Croton-on-Hudson. Columbia University commits to purchasing solar energy from the project for 20 years through Con Edison, benefiting from discounted utility bills via NY-Sun community solar credits. Sol Systems manages the project, aligning with Columbia’s climate commitments and fostering community engagement.
