Funded primarily by an Energy to Lead grant from the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority, the array demonstrates solar + storage in Upstate New York, provides key data for grid researchers, and gives University of Rochester opportunities for important outreach about low-carbon energy.

Thank you to the University Facilities and Services team and the University of Rochester administration for helping make this project a reality.
