Publish Date: May 31, 2024
On May 31, Crafton Hills College officially went live with the 2.3 MW solar farm, moving the campus toward Net Zero Energy. This project, funded by Measure CC, reflects CHC's commitment to sustainability.
The solar farm, approved in October 2021, includes fixed tilt ground-mounted panels and Tesla Megapack Battery Storage. It is expected to save $550,000 in the first year and $18 million over 25 years, with net savings of $10.5 million.
These savings will be used to enhance student education. The taxpayer investment in Measure CC is providing a greener future and offers students firsthand experience with renewable energy systems at the college.
