Solar Carport
A brief description of the innovative policy, practice, program, or outcome that outlines how credit criteria are met and any positive measurable outcomes associated with the innovation:
The Farmingdale State College Solar Carport project (FSC Solar Carport) is part of the Smart Energy Corridor Project. This Project is sponsored by the
Long Island Power Authority (LIPA), Farmingdale State College and Stony Brook University which is supported by a grant from the Department of Energy, the SUNY Research Foundation and LIPA. The FSC Solar Carport, which is in parking lot 5, has ten electric vehicle charging stations (GE DuraStations). Each of the EV Charging Stations can provide power to two parked vehicles simultaneously (PHEV (Plug in Hybrid Vehicle)/EV). The 94 kW solar array is comprised of 384 245-Watt solar panels. It has generated almost $100,000 in clean electricity, offsetting nearly 1,000,000 lbs of CO2 emissions.
The chargers are almost always in use, and dozens of permits are distributed each year to campus users. The carport is FSC branded, and demonstrated the college's commitment to sustainability and clean energy. See photo and newsletter attached.
