New Jersey's Warehouse Roofs Get Solar Makeover

WHY IT MATTERS

This innovative approach to solar energy deployment will help New Jersey meet its renewable energy goals, while also promoting sustainable development and reducing carbon emissions in the state.

What happened

Faropoint, a leading industrial property owner, has initiated construction on the first of 16 community solar projects in New Jersey. These projects will utilize the underutilized space on warehouse roofs, generating over 10 megawatts of power. The initiative aims to maximize the potential of these rooftops, which are often overlooked for solar installations. The projects will provide a significant boost to the state's renewable energy capacity, contributing to a cleaner and more sustainable environment. As the construction progresses, the community solar projects are expected to bring numerous benefits to the local community, including reduced energy costs and increased access to renewable energy.
