The system will produce in excess of 280,000 kilowatt-hours (kWh) of clean energy annually, enough to satisfy the entire facility’s yearly demand for electricity.
SES which engineered, constructed, and financed the solar project will also operate and maintain the system.
The company will sell the solar generation to Eldorado Coffee Roasters under a power purchase agreement (PPA).
The solar system will eliminate more than 500,000lbs of CO2, 500lbs of NOx and 2000lbs of SO2 emissions from the air annually.
Funding for the project has been provided by the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA), combined with federal, state and local tax incentives.
SES, in addition has obtained recovery and reinvestment act funds through NYSERDA, and a federal tax incentive.
