The 4,100 solar panels sit on three acres and power Marlboro Township’s water treatment and distribution operations.
They will generate over 1.3 million kilowatt hours of clean electric power each year, meeting nearly 40 percent of the power needs of the the township municipal utilities authority.
“We’re thrilled to be deploying a significant solar array to power our water treatment and distribution operations; and pleased that it’ll be cash-flow positive from day one,” says Peter Wersinger, Executive Director of the Marlboro Township Municipal Utilities Authority.
Wersinger says projects such as this one are helping New Jersey achieve its long term goal of energy independence.
