Renewable Energy Projects

  • Solar Array at UMass Research Farm
    The 106-panel, 25 kilowatt PV project examines and documents the results of implementing ground-mounted solar energy technology on farm land while simultaneously producing a crop, is designed to produce an electric power source to offset power usage at the research farm and will demonstrate how this type of PV can be implemented by a farm cost effectively.
  • UMass Wind Energy Center
    The University of Massachusetts Wind Energy Center is a leading institution in wind energy engineering nationally and internationally. Since 1972 the Center has worked diligently to maintain and enhance its important wind energy education programs and research activities.
  • Visitor's Center Solar Canopy
    This project would turn an ordinary parking lot into a solar power generation site, providing enough electricity to power the adjacent Robsham visitor's center.
