PowerFlex starts commercial operation of 7.2 MW rooftop solar project in New York
Solar developer PowerFlex has started the commercial operation of the largest rooftop solar project in New York State, a 7.2 MW solar photovoltaic facility located atop a distribution center owned by Medline Industries in Orange County, New York, USA.
The community solar project, comprised of more than 17,000 panels, was completed on May 26, 2023, and generates 8.5 million kWh of clean power annually, enough to power over 1,600 homes, while reducing carbon emissions by nearly 6,000 metric tons annually.
The over US$8 million project, sited in the Town of Montgomery, was built with nearly US$5 million in private investment from the developer, PowerFlex - a national provider of solar, storage, and electric vehicle (EV) charging solutions for commercial customers, and is now owned by Medline Industries.
The New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA) provided over US$3 million in project support through NY-Sun, the State's signature initiative to advance the scale-up of solar while driving costs down and making solar energy more accessible to homes, businesses, and communities.
