Today, everyone has heard of solar energy and many people have a basic understanding of how a solar installation works: solar panels, net metering, etc.

However, very few solar energy companies understand how to successfully design for an educational institution. Universities have unique needs that are not well served by traditional solar arrays.

We’ve figured out how to combine several cutting-edge technologies into one integrated system to shave peak demand charges and increase renewable energy share in a cost-effective way.

Follow along as we take a deep dive into the design process of the MUM Solar Power Plant. We share how we incorporated single-axis tracking technology, battery energy storage, and predictive algorithms in this next generation system.
